@moonbus saidwhen you vote for the president of america there should be a 50 percent chance that that person is a women. after 46 attempts at chance 100 percent are all men.
You have a peculiarly Judeo-Christian bias about religion. There are pagan Earth-goddess religions as well as tantric traditions which respect womanhood.
is the pagan Earth-goddess religions responsible for that?
nope ... the guilty part is jesus the man his 12 men disciples and the bible written by men.

@sonship saidRacy pop?
@Executioner-Brand
I looked over your list of songs under the discussion title "What Are You Listening To?"
Could it be that your pre-occupation with racy guys and girls colors your view of the Holy Bible? Maybe your preoccupation with racy pop music colors your reading of the history of the miraculous incarnation of God as a man in the Gospels?
Ie "Sam ...[text shortened]...
"
Maybe your lusty colored psychological glasses cast a fleshy minded hew over the Bible ?
Good lord.
@executioner-brand saidThen why is it the case that the bulk of non-Christian and non-Muslim societies still have sexist issues?

THe reason for this is that men traditionally are far physically stronger and this has set the town for all division of labor in the society.
A woman cannot perform the difficult tasks that men used to have to perform as herders, farmers, fishermen, artisans, soldiers... and so were naturally excluded from the prestigious positions of leading soldiers or creating great works.
This is the real cause.
It is also the case that the temperaments of the two sexes are different.
@philokalia saidThe premise is that religions are misogynistic, it’s hilarious to see the usual Bible thumpers here trying to rationalise that misogyny.

So just to be clear God is a misogynist and condemned women at the moment of creation to a life of subservience to men?

@philokalia saidMany attributes contribute to the election of a women which should be a 50 percent chance much like my own country. Who won the melbourne cup. female horse.

@kevcvs57 saidI think it is a lot more complicated than that, friend.

@ghost-of-a-duke saidThink Katy Perry, Britney Spears, Shakira, Kesha, and before that, Christine Aguilera, Madonna, Lady Gaga, etc.

Good lord.
@suzianne saidSonship included Roxette - 'She's got the look.'

@Ghost-of-a-Duke
Identify a SPECIFIC TEXT - ANY TEXT "twisted" by me or by Witness Lee.
So give us the "STRAIGHT" translation and then the "TWISTED" one.
Don't hide behind broad generalizations like a con-man.

*Laughter - applause.*
I guess that was very cute.
In the department of wit you win hands down.
Now are you going to accept the serious challenge or back away from your accusation of text corrupting ?
Saying "I don't agree with you putting together certain verses" is one matter. Saying "You corrupt the text of the New Testament" is another.
Don't confuse the two objections.
I can deal with either.
@sonship saidI've told you, 'all' your biblical quotes set out to twist the text to fit around the nonsense spouted by Witness Lee. All Christians should disregard your interpretations of scripture as sacrilegious twaddle.
