Wouldn't the Bible be a lot more believeable if the Old Test. was cut out?

    Isn't behavior which affects a society the duty which good citizens ought discuss and study?

    Women started this idea that their bodies are their business ONLY.
    If men refused military duty using the same argument, no one would exist to stop the Muslims from confronting these same women.
    If what women do means everyone must pay taxes for Welfare, Food Stamps, Special Education, Abortions, and high violent crimes then its is our business, isn't it?

    What women and you mean here s to be silent in these issues.
    The complaint is the same thing you argued against when the Paul told women to be silent in the churches.

    Hmmm,...
    The person would be an excellent example for Gays, hiding their Gay behavior from the Public and living life as they might, unnoticed and without bad effects upon the next generation.

    They would live since they were undiscovered, as would the harlots, too.
    This seems to be all the Bible asks of Gays:

    1 Corinthians 6:9 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,

    Idk, I'm trying to figure out where I said "only", or was that just a straw man you made? Is it so hard to admit that some of your critiques are just baloney?

    We KNOW your "two attitudes towards women", CD.

    1. Women who would allow themselves to be subjugated to and dominated by men. Probably even dress in burkhas to avoid "tempting good, holy men like yourself".

    2. All other women.

    I admit that you are a Quasi-Christian who would love to see a form of Talibanism enforced in America.

    Clearly, you agree with ISIS and the Taliban on the domination of women and oppression of gays.


    And I can postulate a pretty good reason for your psychology.

    - - - Updated - - -

    The "bats are birds" was the ONLY thing you took issue with. Do you disagree with any of the other bullet points I made?


    BTW, supposedly the OT is the "inspired Word of God"....why didn't God inspire the writers to put bats with mammals....or atleast NOT include them with birds. Does God not know taxonomy????

    Hmmm,...
    There are women who were raised with baby dolls and after 1965, other women raised with Barbie dolls.
    That is the difference in a nut shell.

    What we saw happen was women doubled the Unskilled Labor Force so they coud get Jobs like men had.
    But Jobs are limited in number.

    What happened was economic saw wages remain fixed or held down.
    This was especially noticeable in the $6/hour Minimum Wage, which even today was around $7,... fifty years later.

    The Classification System in ancient times used Locomotion as the way to separate animals from one another in groups.

    Birds fly and so do Bats.
    Hence Flying Animals was a group..
    Today, we use a system which requires microscopes to separate animals our way.

    Why do you ignore the Jews here, who also thought that force was a natural response to matriarchies which would start seducing their young men.
    The Muslims are just doing what Jews did back with the Hebrew patriarchs.

    Christians are Jews, who have advanced in accord with Christ teaching them that the Truth will set us free of whoredoms.

    This is exactly why atheists are working so hard to get the uninformed backward thinking christian influence out of politics and public places.


    Their bodies are their own business and if you think you have some right to make decisions about vaginas I'd suggest you get one of your own. Then you can explain to idiots how it's none of their

    business what you do with yours!

    Of course they were, after all we had legal rape within marriage, forced marriages (shotgun weddings), illegitimate children being stolen from their mothers . .things were soooo much better then :roll:

    and rightly so

    Absolute BS based on nothing, you have no comparison data, abortions were not recorded prior to 1970 due to their illegality over most of the country. Attempting to compare abortions after 1973 and before is intellectually dishonest.

    I've noticed with you that you rarely or ever link to your sources, are you ashamed to acknowledge that your sources are all religiously motivated and as such are biased.

    Oh look a link, shame it doesn't actually work but gives a page not found error.

    The rest of your stats are a copy and paste from The fatherless generation - https://thefatherlessgeneration.wordpress.com/statistics/ which again carries no links to the source data.

    You must be extremely blinkered by your obsession to believe there was "no sexual promiscuity", history does not support your blindness.

    Chrisitanty is just as immoral. What did Jesus says happens if you reject him ? TORTURE IN HELL. This is a forced choice based on the threat of violence. And the NT has supernatural stories of devil possessed pigs, curing the blind, waking on water, etc.

    A resounding NO. Many of you who say yes didn't really even read it. God is full of love and grace in the Old Testamant. Want any examples?
