    Why has the status of women become so important in our age?

    What sort of reply is that? The world has done without the Baha'i "faith" for many thousands of years. You need to start justifying it.

    Why has the status of women become so important in our age?

    Don't jump to conclusions. I'm looking at it from a match-maker's perspective. I'd doubt there's many Noahides around. I mean you're just asking to be the exception, aren't you?

    May be it's your religion. Try becoming a Christian.

    Why has the status of women become so important in our age?

    That's your opinion, as a pagan. I think you'll find that religion and political rights are on different wavelengths. What you have right to do is not necessary a good or a moral thing to do. Most people today have the right to commit adultery. Doesn't mean its a good thing if they do. Anyway...

    Why has the status of women become so important in our age?

    I refer you to Polymath. You don't understand? You don't understand what unlimited options in choosing a husband entails at a practical level? Check the stats on the average number of sexual partners people have in societies with "unlimited" options. So you're alleging prostitution is an...

    Why has the status of women become so important in our age?

    Why? In any event, many men do not have such unlimited rights. There are many men in some countries who will be lucky to find any wife, just because of factors outside their control.

    Why has the status of women become so important in our age?

    No, this is actually idolatry over men. It's not even equality. I know what rights for women involve. It involves temporary marriage. Date someone for a year. Get fed up. Move on to someone richer. What's equality got to do with it? No. in general men do not have unlimited options. Men are...

    Why has the status of women become so important in our age?

    "In your opinion." I do not recognize such humanistic injustices. In fact they involve idolatry of women. Whoever appointed a woman to have unlimited options as to marriage?

    Bible as literature

    I agree that Arius didn't specifically teach salvation by knowledge but he was a part of the Trinitarian enterprise. He was an elder in a Trinitarian church. Arianism was not so much a Christian heresy, as a heresy within High Trinitarianism itself, which does teach that knowledge of "God the...

    Bible as literature

    I smell a wiff of contempt. A fair amount actually, but what I have found is that the number of pagan gods is pretty much infinite. The more you learn of them, the more you see there are to be discovered. In fact you could spend your entire life unprofitably immersed in pagan religions and...

    They don't need to be taught, unless you were interested in history. They are unimportant.

    Says you without a shred of evidence. Just because you don't understand him is not a ground to libel him.

    Why has the status of women become so important in our age?

    "Oppression of women" is bunkum. You have yet to disclose any evidence of their oppression outside of criminal conduct. If you view marriage as inherently "oppression," you suggest the Baha'i "faith" is little removed from outright satanism. The preference for female empowerment these days is...

    Bible as literature

    All heresies are gnostic (esoteric knowledge based). It's just that some are more extreme than others. Christianity emphasizes faith, and that the kingdom of God is of another place. That is why to pretend that this heathen world is a reflection of the kingdom of God is tantamount to straight...

    Bible as literature

    Belief in Jesus as God is not necessary for Christianity. He was the son of God on this earth. As Catholicism grew it kept on subsuming pagan religions to itself, beginning with Greek paganism. It is certainly less Christian: many Catholics, even their priests, do not have any faith. In fact...

    No. What you are speaking is nonsense. A Christian culture would be governed by Christian law. The USA has never been governed by Christian law since the constitution, and is not governed by Christian law. To suppose is to be so is just a way of defaming Christianity. Rubbish. It is perfectly...

    God Without Gender

    God always takes the gender pronouns (i.e. the metaphorical sex) of the one in authority. So a society that idolizes women will worship a mother goddess deity and see God as a she. A patriarchal society will see God as a male. As God's law established a patriarchal society. then it can be...

    Bible as literature

    There is no such thing as Christian culture, unless it is freedom of conscience. However freedom of conscience is not per se anything to do with the Christian religion, but necessary for its practice, otherwise we're into martyrdoms. Freedom of conscience can be extended into plainly...

    Bible as literature

    Which proves that you haven't got the faintest about you're talking about. Even Paul dismissed most Jews as "not true Jews" because contrary to your "no true scotsman" fallacy, it is possible to identify God's standards with some precision. I guess the feeling would be entirely mutual then...
