It is from the Proclamation on the Family.Jersey Girl wrote:I think what you're saying is that the other scripture by Paul speaks of equality between men and women in God's mind/eyes. How do you see the 1 Timothy as contrary to that?
1 Timothy 2:11 Let the woman learn in silence with all subjection.
12 But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.
Why can not a woman teach? This doesn't seem in concert with other scriptural examples - there were many instances under the law in which women served as prophetesses and even leading women in the church in the New Testament. It is arguable that one woman even served as an apostle (one who would have a considerable amount of authority, even over men) - Junia. It could even be said that the Samaritan woman by the well "taught" the others in her village about Jesus.
1 Timothy just doesn't seem to fit with those examples and words such as this:
Galatians 3:28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.

Kimberly, you should be ashamed of yet another ignorant, uneducated rant against the Church, the Gospel, its standards, and God, the big thorns in your paw that apparently will not go away.
And who cares what renegade thinks about Biblical history and ancient Israelite religious thought (what, by the way, does he know about it?). A guy who uses the symbol of a group of drug lobotomized America hating anarchist punks whose collective mental capacity would have a difficult time competing with a can of Spam is no one to be pontificating on such complex subjects.
Phunk presents as our resident baby Carl Sagan but, like so many others of this type, beyond this small niche (natural or hard science), his mind collapses when faced with questions and issues even one step beyond that narrow funnel. Issues of religion and spirituality cause something near complete intellectual short circuiting with individuals of this kind.

Well, you gotta admit Coggs is very creative with the insults. He loves to slay us with them, at least in his own mind.
He's the Insultinator!
