I think we have come along way in some areas and in other areas we have not. Women in Pastor roles are portrayed differently than Woman in wife/mother roles in the Scriptures. Teamwork in a relationship or marriage with a woman is the key.
So you are progressive. I think the bible would disagree with you, but I am glad that you are more enlightened then others. I was raised in a church were women wear not allowed to speak and had to cover their heads. We could do nothing that had anything to do with "the world", like music. All I ever wanted to do was play my guitar and sing, but if it was not a Christian song I was forbidden.
Honestly Shaky, I am much more concerned for the women today under Islam than in the times of the Old Testament and 1st. century of this world. [/B]
I too am concerned for women today under Islam, but I believe from what I have read in the bible, that in the OT women were treated the same.

I am too, but keep in mind that many women enjoy wearing the veil as a sign of thier utmost religions devotion. Infact, some very conservative women wer uspet that wearing the veil is enforced, because they then feel that their devotion menas nothing.
I dont agree with the forced policy, but for many fundamentalists, its a personal choice.

If you makes you happy... I just try to treat everyone the same.
I wasn't there...
It was my minions...who were so stupid to ductape the locking mechanism, but they did it horizontally so the ductape stuck out each side. The gauds came and took it off, and the stupid crooks did it again! They didn't even think to tape it vertically along the edge of the door so at least it would be hidden.
I just wanted to expose how corrupt government is...and SOMEONE has to have a lower approval rating than bush.
