Please elaborate.

If one is going to go back to the First Cause of everything, then how does one explain it without the accusation of circular argument? It is a pointless argument, and therefore a cop out. If you want cause and effect in physical terms then stick with the world. The world brings death.

And there are many negative things which come from it also, which you fail to mention or perhaps admit. Just because men in the past have not dealt wisely with their position, does not mean that we have to make it worse. Man is the head of woman..as it is written

St. Paul was just a man and had his own human prejudices. Jesus said no such thing.

Consciousness evolves....everything is Consciousness...why would it not evolve. Must Yahshuah say everything before someone else, can he not speak through them?

He can, but He never said or did anything that was sexist. Many of His closest friends on earth were women. He never told them to keep quiet or that men should rule over them.

Paul was a troubled person. Plus, he was writing those letters in response to various issues that regional churches had. You have to put it into context. Not everything he said applied to all churches or applies to us today.

That is a fair point.

But I do not think Paul was troubled....Peter says that his writings are "hard to understand"

Except I wasn't talking about the first cause. If you go back to the diagram, I was talking about using the Bible to prove the Bible.

Yet he is supposedly " inspired by the Holy Spirit?" Does the Holy Spirit purposely make itself hard to understand too?
We should be careful what we say of the Holy Spirit, I say that for you and me. One with the Spirit will understand; but there are many different levels of reality. Everything is One, but One what?

So... You're not going to answer with a yes or no? Just some deep pseudo-philosophical riggamaroo.
