Not following biblical principles eh. The bible teaches men to be the head of their households and wives obey their husbands. Of course husbands are supposed to love their wives as Christ himself loves the church.

It’s a tall order, and somewhere along the line, everything went awry.

No. It does not. This is a view Muslims have. It says wives submit to your husbands. It says children obey your parents. Big difference. There IS a hierarchy with men as head of the household and men are to lay down their lives for their wives as Christ did for the Church. Wives are to submit to and respect their husbands. Look it up.

And if someone is going to quote the Old Testament with Sarah and Abraham - remember - the Bible states the truthfulness of many things that happened, right or wrong - but that's different to where it states what God wants or commands.
