>>>>>>You have succeeded (once again) in distoring the Biblical view of women. If you really want to know the truth about what the Bible says about women (which I doubt) you can read it here: http://www.proverbs31woman.com/macarthur/womensroles.php

>>>>>But why does everyone only quote what supports their view? Oh. Wait, that's it, isn't it? It supports their view. It's all opinion and supposition. There are so many conflicts in the bible depending on who is speaking, from what time and for what purpose. The only thing anyone can do is pull what they want to out of it and use it to fit what they want it to. I could probably find a biblical reference to dispute/contradict any other reference someone quotes. What's the point? I'm really not asking for a discussion on this; it's more of a rhetorical thing.

>>>>The Bible should be read in context. People do take things out of context (which is what Alex has done.) You're right some people do use the Bible in that way to support some rather odd ideas. However, when a person reads passages in the proper context, there is really no conflicts or contradictions.

>>>>Sorry to answer your rhetorical question - just thought others may want an explanation even though you did not.

>>>The "proper context" being the one that supports your POV. Which is your right, that's human nature. Just don't insult us by calling it an "explanation." It is only one POV. I know few if any women who would agree with it.

>>I didn't mean to insult you - sorry about that. But, you have to admit there's really very little difference between "an explanation" and a "POV." If you want to call it a "POV," that's fine with me.

>>Just to be clear, I happen to believe that the POV as I explained it is the correct POV...

>Yes, Howard, we're all very clear on that. Even a woman could understand it.

Not if you tell her that she may not understand it.
