(by Crystal Paine)
I've had so many thoughts swirling around in my head from the
responses to this question. There is so much I want to say, some of
which I have said earlier in other posts, but maybe it needs to be
reiterated.
I think we would all agree that there are definitely times when a
woman can teach. As we have recently talked on here, there is a huge
need for older women to teach the younger women. That is their
Biblical role. I also believe that women are called to teach their
children (I am not referring to homeschooling in particular here.) as
the Bible has called parents to train and raise children together. The
father is the head of the home, but the mother is definitely a co-
laborer with her husband in this regard. Children are to obey and
honor both father and mother.
We can spend all day trying to come up with examples of Biblical women
who were in "leadership" positions, but we need to look deeper to the
Biblical principles.
1 Tim 2:11-14 "Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection. But
I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man,
but to be in silence. For Adam was first formed, then Eve. And Adam
was not deceived, but the woman being deceived was in the
transgression."
Adam was created first, then Eve. Eve was taken from Adam as a sign
that she was not an independent being. Eve was deceived and she
sinned, yet Adam was punished, too. Why? Because Adam was Eve's
authority and therefore responsible for her. If God had created Eve as
an independent being, wouldn't He have just punished her by herself?
This principle was laid down since the beginning of time and it holds
true today. Man was created to be the head of the woman. Woman was
created to be the helper to man. Man is under God, woman is under man.
So much of the time, we try to fit the Bible into our own mold of
thinking. We try to justify our beliefs by trying to come up with some
verse which might support our view. As I've said so many times,
though, we have to take the Bible as a whole. Either we believe it as
a whole, or we might as well not believe it at all.

The problem with that theory is that the bible as we know it today was
not standardized until there was a council of bishops well after the
death of Jesus. They met to standardize the Christian Bible and make
it independent of the Jewish roots.

The problem society have with today's (leader) women are the same :
Lying and bad decissions. Unchangable.

A WOMAN suffering post-natal depression suffocated her four-week-old baby with a pillow and then told her husband what she had done, a Perth court has been told.
And she was, of course, released with excuse"she is not dangerous".
I.E. The Court decided that killing the baby is nothing.

World Youth Day: the event has found some unusual supporters - 282 pilgrims from Argentina, Brazil, and the United States are sleeping at the Malek Fahd Islamic School in a suburb of Sydney.
“This was a good opportunity to extend our hand in friendship and break down the barriers and misunderstandings between religions,” said Pinad El-Ahmad, who is in charge of inter-religious activities at the school.
“Hospitality is part of our Islamic teaching. We know that the Prophet opened his house and mosque to non-Muslims, and so it is only right that we should do the same,” she said.
Preparations for World Youth Day have not been without controversy.
In an attempt to ensure that the event ran smoothly, the state government in New South Wales passed a law banning people from “annoying” pilgrims, sparking protests that it was an infringement on civil liberties.
A homosexuals dominated federal court Tuesday struck down the law, paving the way for demonstrators to hand out condoms and coat hangers, references to the Catholic Church’s opposition to birth control and abortions they say are the inevitable result.
Justice in Australia is a laughing mater. |

Justice is an illusion. Get over it. And if some insane airhead kills |
her baby, she's out of the gene pool, and has done you all a favor.
What? you want more crazy bitches? Where do you think the ones you have
now came from? The stork? |
