One of the 16th-century Texas tribes which Cabeza de Vaca talks about killed all of their girl babies at birth. They obtained wives from other tribes.
They were equal-ly delicious.
.
So much for club-and-drag away marriages of the stone age?
Great minds think alike. I see you beat me to it XD
More importantly were at least half of them queer to reflect diversity?
Why is this so hard to believe?
My statement has nothing to do with women’s equality...it has to do with “so called experts” coming up with beliefs rather than proof.
Global warming is a perfect example of today’s “experts” coming up with fake and false statements to support their agenda.
1. I'm guessing he was referring to Adam and Eve before the fall/curse (although Adam still had the leadership role and Eve was the helper.)
2. In the verse you cited, the word translated "desire" can be misleading. This isn't saying the woman will always want the guy who is bad for her and is domineering. That "desire" is a desire to rule over, as in Genesis 4:7 - "...And if you [Cain] do not do well, sin is crouching at the door. Its desire is for you, but you must rule over it." In response to that desire, man responds with the iron fist. It is battle for control on both sides.
3. The divine plan has always been mutual submission (Eph 5:21 - "submitting to one another out of reverence for Christ"), equality (Gal 3:28 - There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is no male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus), yet with differing roles (Eph 5:22-33, 1Pet 3:7)
The verse you cited was not the divine plan; it was the corrupting of the divine plan and the consequence of sin. It was not God commanding; it was God explaining the result of their actions.
Liberal tripe, not science. Liberals don’t know a scientist is.
The sexes by the very nature of sexuality, complement each other. Both are absolutely essential to human continuity; but pretending that equality, rather than to complement, is a rational purpose or goal, is to superimpose a neurotic wish list over what is actually functional.
Why does it matter? Well for one thing, truth is always important. But it is the unfortunate side effect of egalitarian pursuits that is the real crux. The Egalitarian pursuit promotes jealousy, envy, resentment, rather than constructive development of all the useful traits where people being compared, are actually able to excel. The areas where anyone has a particularly useful quality, should be their focus; not a need to pretend that they can be great at whatever they set their minds to. (And Reality Is Not A Grievance.)
That was after the fall.
...the earliest human societies are likely to have been founded on enlightened egalitarian principles, according to scientists.Yes, and electrical impulses to a certain part of the brain will undermine superstitions like belief in God. Nonsense and non-science. Thanks SteveH.
In the Cain-and-Abel story, at 4.7, the word "apostrophe" recurs for "desire," but the word "arxeis" (arkhseis) is used instead of "kyrieuseis" for "master." "Arxeis" is future 2nd person singular from "arkho," to rule, to rule over, to be first.
It's not a case of it being easy or hard to believe. It's amusement over "scientists" making definitive statements about something they can only speculate about.
As others have noted, neolithic people who modern men HAVE had a chance to study over the last few hundred years (American Indians) were not feminist societies, which casts doubt over the speculations of these guys.
yes but t the same time, it seems too naiive and too blatant
Yeah, although according to non-biblically accepted book of the Alphabet of Ben Sira, before there G*d created Eve, G*d created Lilith, at the same time as G*d created Adam. But Lilith was dissatisfied and departed Eden because she was a gender equality advocate or something like that.
At least according to the H2 channel special “Banned from the Bible II” that I watched last evening on cable.
I report, you decide... :-)
Thanks. That reminds me, that according to my family lore, my great grandma from Texas was allegedly kidnapped from a texas pueblo by my great grandpa. Supposedly it was common practice as late as the 1860s or 1870s or so, although my family’s incident was allegedly somewhat later than that.
Anyway kidnapping of females by males does not imply equality, unless there is an equal amount of kidnapping of females by males... correct? just checking... :-)
