[QUOTE="Thomas Rogers, post: 694993, member: 60724"] R Shek, I think you missed my point, and that was that the church has create a lot of dogma about what is and what is not permissible, sexually, as well as what gender-specific roles there should be. Did you know that many biblical scholars actually believe that Mary Magdalene was most likely a disciple, probably one of great importance to Jesus (I won't get into the whole DaVinci Code stuff). Mary's role in the Bible, in Jesus' ministry and in the forming of the church post-resurrection was likely downplayed if not totally omitted. Why? Because it more than likely portrayed a strong, vocal, important leadership position in the early church by a female, and that's not something that the authors of the Bible didn’t want promoted for if they did, it would challenge the male dominated society and male dominated church. Men wrote the Bible and until very recently only men have taught it. Only in the past 100 years have our attitudes changed when it comes to females, their place in our homes, in our society and in our churches. Even what you refer to as Biblical order of the man as the provider is outdated. You are entitled to your desire for that in your home, but there are many, many homes where the woman is the provider and they clearly are not living in an unholy arrangement. Times are changing and attitudes and actions today in many areas DIRECTLY CONTRADICT biblical word and biblical teaching…and it would be arrogant to think that it is all unholy and blasphemy.
