Maybe there should be a book for you titled "The Excellent Husband." There might only be one chapter, carefully explaining that the world, and your family, does not revolve around you.

Oh wait, that's right, it's your scripture interpreting scripture.

1 Corinthians 11:7-9: "For a man...is the image and glory of God; but woman is the glory of man. For man did not come from woman, but woman from man; neither was man created for woman but woman for man. For this reason, and because of the angels, the woman ought to have a sign of authority on her head."

1 Corinthians 14:34-35: "...women should remain silent in the churches. They are not allowed to speak, but must be in submission, as the Law says, If they want to inquire about something, they should ask their own husbands at home; for it is disgraceful for a woman to speak in the church."

Got that? Next time you go to church, make sure you don't hear any women speaking.. as the law says, of course, they should remain silent.

What hogwash. You can have it. I prefer women who aren't cowering, submissive robots, myself. I bet that book you mentioned has some great recipes!

You mock Scripture. That's gotta be a lot like playing with fire.

I have that book! It was written 2000 years ago. It says that a woman should not lead men. That's one of the necessary steps to being an excellent husband.
