Well, there is a difference in knowing about the ruler of the country where one lives and in having a personal acquaintance with him. So, too, with knowing God.

Truthabounds, That isn't a compliment - it's patronising - so if you are expecting gratitude from me, forget it. It is still the woman's husband who 'sitteth among the elders of the land' while she very likely wastes her potential because the bible decrees she must.
And if you still think it's man himself who has relegated women to second place, I suggest you read again what you advised me to read - and while you're at it, give St Paul a look.

Elderman/Truthabounds - even the Saudis recognise the importance of women in areas such as medicine, education and I am even aware of one female CEO of a major trading house, and things/attitudes to women are gradually changing......but, I guess to you, they are considered heathens, being Muslim, and therefore not worthy of your (arrogant and prejudiced) consideration.

Actually I need to qualify that. Of course it is man himself who has relegated women to second place - but he's justified that by claiming to have been inspired in his writings by God - so that's alright then!

Despite that fine beginning, a movement called women’s liberation—an attempt by women to break free from male domination—began in the early 1960’s. At that time, some 300 husbands abandoned their families to every 1 wife who did. By the end of the 1960’s, the ratio changed to about 100 to 1. Now, it seems, women swear, drink, smoke, and behave immorally as much as men do. So are women happier? No. In some countries, about half of the people who marry eventually divorce. Has the effort by some women to improve their marital situation made matters better or worse.

How would you react to anyone’s encouraging a wise person to become foolish? Likely you would consider this to be very poor advice. There is a time, however, when it is the best of advice.

Yawn.
The fundamental premise is flawed and outdated though, that women are subservient to me. So I suggest that you start with that and consider your "foolishness" first, before pontificating at others with such outdated logic(and copied drivel).

So given that this was the site of where some of your cut and pastes have come from, you are now denying involvement.....interesting perspective that one.
so what was the point of copying a link that had already been published (and the link does work from where I put it) - it did look like that you were referring to another part of what is an extensive site, so hence my comment....
