America is in a crisis today. Children are being raised by sexy tv programms and godless secular humanist schoolls. We are seeing kids become pregnanat become killers and become drug adicts. Where are theyr mothers? I'll tell you where at work. Women at work are trying to prove that they are just like men. They are trying to buy the next suv or desiner dress. In the olden days women took care of children. Taut them wright from wrong. Read to them from the bible. Now kids are on there own. Some lezbians even want to raise kids. What will they teach them the diffrence between dildos and vibrators?

That's why I'm a stay at home Dad. If their mother wants to shorten her life by slaving all day at work, I say "Can I drive you there?"
I guess what I'm trying to say is it doesn't matter if it's their mothers at home with them, Dads can do the job just fine. But SOMEONE needs to do it.

If you don't like the fact that children are raised by a TV set, then make sure when the time comes(if ever) for you to have children, YOU get up and educate them properly.

Stop the hipocrisy, and stop trying to put the guilt on women alone. It (usually) takes two to make a child. When men start being responsible about parenthood, maybe we'll see an amelioration.

Where are their mothers? I'll tell you where: at work. Women at work are trying to prove that they are just like men. They are trying to buy the next SUV or designer dress. In the olden days, women took care of children. They taught them right from wrong and read to them from the Bible. Now, kids are on their own. Some Lesbians even want to raise kids. What will they teach them, the diffrence between dildos and vibrators?

I have lots of respect for those who stay at home like you. Equality of sexes means that raising children isn't a woman's burden anymore. It's good to see a father actively taking care of his children. Keep up the good work.

vibrators are (usually) battery powered and can be made in all sorts of shapes, from very small 'hummingbirds" to very large. dildos are usually solid, often made of silicon, and are mostly based on the size of "that which is usually inserted."

I don't think the finger should be pointed at women. The cause of so much strife these days is the breakdown of the Family Unit.

Jesussaves, bringing us back to the dark ages! Listen, it is not a womans responsability (sp?) to stay at home, someone needs to be there the majority of the time through about 6th grade when the child is ready to be able to do more on his/her own. As for your homophobia, well, you are pretty stupid to think that... lesbiens/gays will not teach that, and you are stupid to think so, they are just as, if not more capable of raising kids as anyone else. As for pop culture, sure kids will see that stuff, heaven forbid, it's just the body, anybody can say, well, that is how they choose to dress, who cares. And for the bible, since this is suppousedly not a religous country, reading for the bible means nothing. The womans place is not in the home, but doing what ever she wants to do.

You do know there were pregnant teens and child killers long before sexy TV programs. I think you have to realize a few things. That in a modern society people have the right to conduct themselves how ever they wish. If you want to live in a religious theocracy go to Iran. But unfortunately for you and weirdos like you, you are living in a modern democracy where everyone is allowed to do and say what they want.

The place for women is obviously in the workplace and having complete equality with men in all areas of public life including politics where their representation in most countries is scandalous. I am strongly opposed to the position of women under most capitalist societies where they continue to be exploited by men and dehumanised by the sex industry.

Dost not alsoeth thy bibel sayeth "This book is for pansies" somewhere in the middle?

Ok...Fake sarcastic King James English is the most annoying thing in the world...next to ignorant hateful people in these forums. If a woman has children, then she should be raising them herself and not dumping them in some daycare so she can afford that new dress or SUV. It is the responsibility of the father to support his wife in raising the children and to provide for them financially. If a couple has no children, or has children who are older, then it's fine for her to get a job. Really, the most important thing is to stay together as a family and not get divorced just because you're selfish and are tired of being married to the same individual. That's like dumping a kid in foster care because you're tired of feeding and raising it. And no, the Bible is not a book for pansies.

There is already a national crises on this issue. But liberal women are too busy thinking only of themselves. Hence the reason we must strengthen the USA Patriot Act.
Women have shown themselves too immature and irrational to be qualified for public office, hence the reason that not many of them are elected. Now you females, can sit back and bitch and moan about that comment being shovenist, but that does not change the fact that it is grounded in fact.
If you want an example of women in public office, Nancy Pelosi and Diane Fienstien and Barbara Boxer have done tremendous damage to our nation's national security, the California economy, our schools, indeed the very morale of our nation has been severely damaged by their selfish partisan wankerings.
The sad fact of the matter is this, women in American society think about one thing only, finding the next peanus. Just try to prove me wrong.
Women should not be allowed to vote or consent until they are 30. All younger females are much too immature to be making such decisions. It is a proven fact that women under 30 are easy to take advantage of, defraud, and manipulate, and fooled. And it almost impossible for them to stand up and say no. They only go wherever the crowd goes, seems to me that they shown a themselves incapable of being independent of men. They always need some guy to tell them what they should or should or not do. And if you don't dictate to them, they will go and find someone who will.
You might not like what I just said but that's my two cents based on reality.

Here's a hint for you females, if a guy does a lot of stuff that shows him to be a criminal and an asshole, and it happens within a 3 day period, that's a certain sign that he will be like that for the rest of his life, hence its time for you to move on to someone else.

The actual quote is: "I like to suck gay cock" - Jesus, and it is from a book that I have written called "The Neo Bible". Since I have putten it in writing, it must be true.

Not everything put in writing is true. Since one can safely assume you are not a primary source (being as Jesus walked on earth 2000 years ago) what primary source did you get it from?

If you don't like the fact that children are raised by a TV set, then make sure when the time comes(if ever) for you to have children, YOU get up and educate them properly.

Stop the hipocrisy, and stop trying to put the guilt on women alone. It (usually) takes two to make a child. When men start being responsible about parenthood, maybe we'll see an amelioration.

In think in this particular case it might be better if he let the TV raise his kids.

The Bible is more than just "an old book full of stories." Even if you don't accept it as the Word of God, you should take it as historically accurate. Especially consider the book of Luke, being as Luke was a historian. Not all old books are accurate, but the Bible is a historically accurate book.

Perhaps I should post something on topic while I'm waiting for it to work. As a woman, my place will be whereever I want it to be. Within the law of course. I'm working my arse off to get to university and I don't intend to let that education go to waste. So I will be working at least for a while afterwards. When/If I have kids I will decide then whether my place shall be in the home. It most likely will as I think I'd rather like to bring up my kids myself. When they're older I'd probably want to go back to work again.

If you look at our child support courts you will know why a lot of mothers (and some fathers) have to work...to feed their kids. Often it takes 2 people to provide everything a child needs, emotionally and financially. It isn't impossible for working parents to give their kids the time and attention that they need as kid's school hours roughly correspond to day work hours. The trick is to make time for them every single day. You have to take "me" out of your vocabulary, and replace it with "we".

To say that a woman should stay at home while the husband works is silly. Does a woman's gender make her a better parent? If a family can afford it, and one of the parents wishes to stay home, gender should have nothing to do with it.

I told you, my book states specfically that Jesus sucked gay cock (not necissarily making him gay).

Anyway, saying that the Bible is historically accurate is much like saying that the holocaust didn't happen - BS. While *some* things in the Bible may be true, seeing everything in there as historical truth must be the ultimate step of stupidity. I can understand if people read the bible as a metaphor, and use it as a guideline for their behaviour in this world. However, I fail to understand when people read that some dude walked on water and says "OMG this is TRUE because.. ur... it's a FACT!"

There is already a national crises on this issue. But liberal women are too busy thinking only of themselves. Hence the reason we must strengthen the USA Patriot Act.
Women have shown themselves too immature and irrational to be qualified for public office, hence the reason that not many of them are elected. Now you females, can sit back and bitch and moan about that comment being shovenist, but that does not change the fact that it is grounded in fact.
If you want an example of women in public office, Nancy Pelosi and Diane Fienstien and Barbara Boxer have done tremendous damage to our nation's national security, the California economy, our schools, indeed the very morale of our nation has been severely damaged by their selfish partisan wankerings.
The sad fact of the matter is this, women in American society think about one thing only, finding the next peanus. Just try to prove me wrong.
Women should not be allowed to vote or consent until they are 30. All younger females are much too immature to be making such decisions. It is a proven fact that women under 30 are easy to take advantage of, defraud, and manipulate, and fooled. And it almost impossible for them to stand up and say no. They only go wherever the crowd goes, seems to me that they shown a themselves incapable of being independent of men. They always need some guy to tell them what they should or should or not do. And if you don't dictate to them, they will go and find someone who will.
You might not like what I just said but that's my two cents based on reality.

Here's a hint for you females, if a guy does a lot of stuff that shows him to be a criminal and an asshole, and it happens within a 3 day period, that's a certain sign that he will be like that for the rest of his life, hence its time for you to move on to someone else.


Ok, as a woman, I agree with some of what you say. Women are easily manipulated because women tend to be more emotional. Therefore, show a woman a baby or cute puppy, and you have won them over. :p However, not every woman is a Nancy Pelosi. If all women had eyebrows like that, I think over-population would no longer be a problem. Here's an idea: voting aptitude tests for women. On every question, have a picture of a puppy next to one of the answers. If she picks too many puppy-answers, she can't vote. :p The problem is women choosing based on charm and emotion (eg Bill Clinton) and not on who will do a better job.

so...i also gonna post my opinion
im a declared atheist, raised by a single mother and im german... so i probably made 20 mistakes already.
as far as i can say americans arent unwelcome here but many germans simply dont aggree with the politic that bush stands for.....neither do I.
too bad bush doesnt visit my hometown (berlin) but ill the protestants here anyways.
back to this gay-women-bible-thingie:
Ive read the bible, had religous classes in school, visited israel just before it became too dangerous and i can only support the fact that bible teaches some good ideas but it also teaches many ideas that totally outdated and the part about the "womens place" is one of them.
of course parents should take good care of their children but you also have too see that this isnt possible in many cases.
specially in a country with nearly no public assistance like the USA shouldnt wonder that parents, single or married, have to do a job or more just to be able to pay for their kids school, food, clothes and so on...and that has nothing to do with being able to buy designer stuff, fancy cars and a rolex.
my mother does shift work, so she didnt have as much time for as she wanted to have but still she is a very good mother and im pretty pround of her that she managed all that stuff.
btw many people think that love and finding a good partner is an essential requirement for getting married and a gay human being is also able to raise a child.
jesussaves....i envy your sweet, little world where everything can be solved by quoting your "holy" manual but get real.......life isnt like that.

And among the teachings of His Holiness Bahá'u'lláh is the equality of women and men. The world of humanity has two wings -- one is women and the other men. Not until both wings are equally developed can the bird fly. Should one wing remain weak, flight is impossible. Not until the world of women becomes equal to the world of men in the acquisition of virtues and perfections, can success and prosperity be attained as they ought to be.

This is not an example of God changing His mind, rather an example of Progressive Revelation. When the OT states an eye for an eye it is meant as level of justice that was not in force before that statement. Before this a transgression against a person would be met with a punishment out of poportion to to original act. When Christ said 'love thy neighbor" this raised the standard of human behavior. There is no contradiction between the two statements. God did not reveal all truth at once because humanity had not evolved to a high enough level to put into pratice the knowledge just as all secular knowledge was not discovered at once.

Here is what Lenin said on the International Working Women's Day of 1921:

"You cannot draw the masses into politics without drawing in the women as well. For under capitalism the female half of the human race is doubly oppressed. The working woman and the peasant woman are oppressed by capital, but over and above that, even in the most democratic of the bourgeois republics, they remain, firstly, deprived of some rights because the law does not give them equality with men; and secondly—and this is the main thing—they remain in household bondage", they continue to be “household slaves", for they are overburdened with the drudgery of the most squalid, backbreaking and stultifying toil in the kitchen and the family household.

No party or revolution in the world has ever dreamed of striking so deep at the roots of the oppression and inequality of women as the Soviet, Bolshevik revolution is doing. Over here, in Soviet Russia, no trace is left of any inequality between men and women under the law. The Soviet power has eliminated all there was of the especially disgusting, base and hypocritical inequality in the laws on marriage and the family and inequality in respect of children.

This is only the first step in the liberation of woman. But none of the bourgeois republics, including the most democratic, has dared to take oven this first step. The reason is awe of “sacrosanct private property.

The second and most important step is the abolition of the private ownership of land and the factories. This and this alone opens up the way towards a complete and actual emancipation of woman, her liberation from “household bondage” through transition from petty individual housekeeping to large-scale socialised domestic services.

This transition is a difficult one, because it involves the remoulding of the most deep-rooted, inveterate, hidebound and rigid “order” (indecency and barbarity would be nearer the truth). But the transition has been started, the thing has been set in motion, we have taken the new path."

Here's another good one.

"Education holds an important place in the new order of things. The education of each child is compulsory. If there is not money enough in a family to educate both the girl and the boy the money must be dedicated to the girl's education, for she is the potential mother. If there are no parents the community must educate the child. In addition to this widespread education each child must be taught a profession, art, or trade, so that every member of the community will be enabled to earn his own livelihood. Work done in the spirit of service is the highest form of worship. Where do you find this statement?

You're just jealous because the women seem to have something you don't.

It's called: an education.

Here's another good one.

"Education holds an important place in the new order of things. The education of each child is compulsory. If there is not money enough in a family to educate both the girl and the boy the money must be dedicated to the girl's education, for she is the potential mother. If there are no parents the community must educate the child. In addition to this widespread education each child must be taught a profession, art, or trade, so that every member of the community will be enabled to earn his own livelihood. Work done in the spirit of service is the highest form of worship. Where do you find this statement?

(Abdu'l-Baha, Divine Philosophy, p. 82)



The world in the past has been ruled by force and man has dominated over woman by reason of his more forceful and aggressive qualities both of body and mind. But the scales are already shifting, force is losing its weight, and mental alertness, intuition, and the spiritual qualities of love and service, in which woman is strong, are gaining ascendancy. Hence the new age will be an age less masculine and more permeated with the feminine ideals, or, to speak more exactly, will be an age in which the masculine and feminine elements of civilization will be more properly balanced.

What I find quite amusing is the fact that everyone seems to take this 'Jesussaves' person seriously.
Well, to amuse myself, I will join in. How often do you get a break from Iraq War and anti-everything threads to debate less talked about subjects like women's rights?

Jesussaves, you claim that the bible is the ultimate source of morality and that the values contained within must be taught to children otherwise they are doomed to a lifetime of misery and doom and the entire of society would collapse. Correct?

I must counter your argument with my own logic. Historical evidence indicates that the bible was written over a period stretching from 1000 BC to even the present day if you account certain books like the book of Mormon etc...
If this is true, then if humanity is doomed to misery and doom with the collapse of social structure, my argument is, how did the basis of society form before the presence of the bible?
Human civilisation is known to go back another 5000 years before the first writings of the bible took place. If this is true, which it is, then how did human social structures evolve to the point where literature and texts like the bible could be written?
If what you say is true, then surely society would have broken down before writing and even alphabet could be determined?

While I note the sarcasm in your tone, most Christian churchs themselves destroyed this 'myth' and have either officially or unofficially accepted evolution as part of God's plan.
Even if Humans were created 4000 years ago, there would still be a gap before the mating of the first human and the conception and writing of the bible. In the end, this only confuses the situation further as there would be even less time to create the social structures necessary to the development of the first pieces of literature, like the bible.

Yes I have. I was impressed and agreed with a number of your philosophies and spiritual quotes that you brought into discussions. When you said that you were of the Baha'i Faith, I started reading. I also have a friend at work whose husband is a professor of religious studies, so I have been talking to him about the Baha'i Faith. It is very interesting. I find that it encourages me to view some things differently and make me think. It also mirrors some basic beliefs that I hold.

Quite frankly i refuse to believe that there could be anyone so bigotted, sexist and homophobic as Jesussaves. i'm really hoping he's playing devil's advocate because it's a sorry society that produces people like him.

as far as the woman's place issue goes, on a purely practical point - i'm old enough to get married and have kids if i want. i'm also old enough to need to be working and earning money to support myself. If i followed the suggestions raised on this thread, and quit my job, got married and started producing kids straight away, i'd be divorced in two years. that would be good for the kids. or should i stay married to a man who i'm miserable with just to please society? i would also have to find a very understanding husband who would pay for my food, board, and total life every day, plus pay off my debts. not likely. how many men earn that kind of money?

it takes time to fall in love and decide you want to be with someone for the rest of your life. and i have the right to choose the man i want to be with based on my feelings for him, not society's need for me to reproduce. it takes maturity and confidence to make those decisions. all these attributes are things that develop as you grow up.

as for women in politics, women make up half the world's population of humans. we should be represented. maybe you guys don't like the agendas we bring, or the way we vote or the issues we deal with. but we are entitled to make our choices the same as you. these issues affect us, and are important to us.

how dare you suggest that we need our decisions to be made by you!?!?!?!

if a man made my choices for me i'd be in a very sad sorry situation right now. it's by making my choices and having the power and right to act upon them that i have achieved what i have today.

i will be represented in government. i will be educated. i will vote. i will make my own decisions. i will have a jop and a career and be the best that i can be in my profession. i may even have a husband and kids one day. and if i do, i'll do my best for my family. but i will also be a part of that family and so my rights and needs will also have to be recognised, and an understanding partner will be happy with that. no one has given me any good reason for taking these rights and options away from me and so i will fight for them as long as i have to. it's just a pity that in this modern society i still have to fight.

Amen to that. And same goes for men. You get out of life what you put into it.

And to Jesussaves: Women aren't trying to be "just like" men. We're trying to be seen as EQUAL with men. Why should women get paid less for the same jobs? Why can't Dad stay home with the kids every so often? Don't get me wrong, I know there are many fathers who do, and I applaud them. Nor am I a raging feminist, because they just make things worse. I do think, though, that women should have every opportunity that men have, and shouldn't have to apologize for it.

Ok, as a woman, I agree with some of what you say. Women are easily manipulated because women tend to be more emotional. Therefore, show a woman a baby or cute puppy, and you have won them over. :p However, not every woman is a Nancy Pelosi. If all women had eyebrows like that, I think over-population would no longer be a problem. Here's an idea: voting aptitude tests for women. On every question, have a picture of a puppy next to one of the answers. If she picks too many puppy-answers, she can't vote. :p The problem is women choosing based on charm and emotion (eg Bill Clinton) and not on who will do a better job.
1. The modern man does something similar. Its likely because both men and women in today's society have been dumbed down. Like all those girls I met, during my tenure here in the US Army, who claimed that when they turned 18 they and their boyfriends had conversations and they decided that the girl was too old to continue her education. Or when women have abortions not because they want to, but because their families, boyfriends, or some social worker wants them to.
2. Men only vote for who has the most money, not for who has a plan and actually has researched what the problems are.
3. I advocate voting tests, but for both men and women. Especially since males still have a slightly higher turnout than women. But yeah, you are right, women do tend to vote based on looks and not on issues. But I doubt that most men are much better.
However, you are right that, unlike men, women are easy to take advantage of, because they are always thinking emotionally.

Ah, the sky is falling. Has been for quite some time now. In fact, one would think it should have hit the ground by now, eh?

There have always been problems, and there have always been opportunists such as yourself ready to capitalize on them; ready to cast blame and provide some half-assed solution that'll make everything right as rain again.

Ok i can agree with some of what you're saying but not all sorry... i know the world has a crisis (not just the US) but are you truly going to blame it on working women... There are ways to have kids taught right from wrong and read to them from the Bible even if the mum works... I would think that as a Christian you might understand that the problems in this world go alot deeper than that (i also have nothing against women working) ie back to Adam and Eve. Thats where the problem comes from...

Oh and where are their fathers?

Your personal beliefs are either archaic, or you are simply trying to start a flame war. This is yet another thread I have seen you start that has brought out some replies that deserved to get some nasty moderator intervention.

The US has secular schools because they were created that way when the US voted for and ratified the Constitution of the United States and the Bill of Rights. No state supported religion, remember that one?

Up until the 20th Century single parent households were extremely common, primarily because mother died in child birth at some point, or because she was at home caring for the children, she was infected by the same illness that killed many of her children and died too, while Dad was out in the fields wasnt exposed on the same basis. Nevertheless, the country seems to not only to have survived but thrived.

Most women I know who work are there not because they "want to prove they are as good as men" but because it is extremely difficult for a family to make it on one income at the moment in our country, or they are working because Dad took off and even if he is actually paying is child support, that amount is still not enough to raise a family on.

Of course they could stay home on welfare and care for them but somehow I don't suppose you would consider that a good idea, nor would I or any other reasonable person.

Good parents regulate the amount of television their children watch, monitor what they are exposed to on the internet and teach them right from wrong.

Lesbians raising kids? Well the jury is out on that one, and I guess we will see how that works out over the next 20 - 30 years. But then, at some point, since they are raising kids, a man was involved along the way. The actual number of adoption cases involving 2 same sex parents is essentially negligible as a proportion.

Do YOU know the difference between a dildo and a vibrator? Essentially not much, except one requires an electrical cord or battery, and the other doesn't. Oh yes, and they are safe sex as they don't promote the spread of AIDs, or any other STD.

3. I advocate voting tests, but for both men and women. Especially since males still have a slightly higher turnout than women. But yeah, you are right, women do tend to vote based on looks and not on issues. But I doubt that most men are much better.
However, you are right that, unlike men, women are easy to take advantage of, because they are always thinking emotionally.


Yay for rampant sexist fallacies all over the place in this thread. Don't people ever get tired of bitching about the 'men are all like this' and 'women are all like that' crap? Unless Whittier was just joking there, in which case, I apologise, like lots.

Gentlemen, Ladies --- be yourselves, do what's right for you and your situation, don't worry about some nitwits raving about what you should or shouldn't do when they don't have the full story, and for the love of $diety/$ideal/$code/$ethic please drop the gender stereotyping.

And for Jesussaves --- if u lern 2 spell, maybe people wuldn't read ur posts, then end up thinking that finding God might maek them stoopid or sumthing.

Or not..your stuff is a pretty damn good giggle, after all. :P

Therefore, show a woman a baby or cute puppy, and you have won them over. :p
I'm a woman, and babies repel me (cute puppies I am ambivalent towards). I don't like or want children, and intend to be steralised to prevent ever becoming pregnant. Sorry, Jesussaves - as such a twisted, evil heathen, I must be going to hell. I guess I'll see you there, because I'm sure your God would only want real Christians - ie, those that 'love', tolerate and forgive all - in his 'Kingdom'. Until then ;)

If you don't like the fact that children are raised by a TV set, then make sure when the time comes(if ever) for you to have children, YOU get up and educate them properly.

Stop the hipocrisy, and stop trying to put the guilt on women alone. It (usually) takes two to make a child. When men start being responsible about parenthood, maybe we'll see an amelioration.

I dont know about America but in Britain, in 95% of cases of child custody, primary custody goes to the mother. I think men will be more serious about parenthood when the Government takes them more seriously

I would think that this occurs because a) The mother is in actual fact the primary caregiver or b)the law perceives that this is so.

Therefore I think it's society's attitudes towards gender roles AND the actual parental roles played by men that need to be changed. Just handing over custody to fathers is not going to solve problems that go much deeper.

Besides which, I doubt VERY much that men form their basic attitudes towards parenting from custody battles...

I think men do form their ideas about their responsablitys in parenting from societys values. Currently society seems to favour women doing all the caring and men wishing to do so are not seen as legitamate claimants and so are dismissed in 95% of cases. Its whats known as a self fuffiling prophecy. Society does not expect men to do primary caring and so they dont. This is reflected in custody battles. I think that the custody laws need to be altered or social opinons need to change. Men are attempting to do this now by challenging more and more in the courts now than ever before. Nautrally this does produce some fringe seeming idoicy (fathers 4 justice being a case in point) but there is logic behind it.

See I agree with the part I bolded. It's very true. Society needs to expect men to adopt a caring role, but men also need to actually DO these things. I mean, I read something that said women do a huge majority of housework in Australia.

I just feel that changing the outcome of custody battles without fixing the underlying social issues is a bit shortsighted.

Edit: And of course I'm not saying that ALL men don't pull their weight or that custody should automatically go to the mother. That should be judged on a case by case basis.

Thats the thing though. Men want to do these things and in many cases they do, and this is not recognised. As for your original point, its a loop. Society needs to change its opinions but men need to change their actions. But men will not change their actions untill society changes its opinons etc
