So, if you and your wife disagree about some household decision, what happens? You've stated earlier that the husband/man of the house has the final say.
That sounds like placing more importance on the man/husband to me. If you feel differently, please explain.
The man ultimately does have the final say but that does not mean he should not listen to his wife and give her input serious consideration. You see that as sexist because you dont understand God. Everything works together for his glory
Oh you bet we would! There's nothing better than finding out that a holier-than-thou Christian bigot just ain't what he claims to be.
OK, I see what you mean. I was thinking more on the lines of Church as in Christian Church.
I know and it is absolutely sickening that you would find joy in someone else's misery. It speaks volumes about what kind of person you are. Shame on you.

You can't beat a good Christian scandal brother. I have no sympathy for those types anyway. Never will either...not when it's of their own making and they are doing it whilst telling others that they shouldn't do it. They deserve everything they get.
Mark Driscoll is the best thing to happen to Christianity and I regret I cant personally attend his church. For years, the masculine soul has been unable to express itself in the church. We have been forced to worship a wimpy Jesus but no more. I want a masculine Jesus that is rough and tough and doesnt take crap from anyone. This meek and mild Jesus doesnt cut it for me. Mark Driscoll shows us that Jesus was all man and God has blessed his ministry. He truly is an upstanding man of God and a shining beacon of righteousness for all preachers to aspire to. Finally, it is no longer a sin to be masculine.

They are sinners saved by grace. Sometimes it's just youthful indiscretion. I dont condone the sin but I will pray for them to find healing, not mock them

I notice that "his" is not capitalized to indicate God so it must mean the male of the house, I presume?

Saints preserve us all from ancient ignorance perpetuated.

I don't believe in your god, so there is no way that I can take it up with him. However, I do find it deeply disturbing that a group of men feel the need to subjugate women based on the teachings of a 1,960-year-old book. How would you feel if you were a woman who was forced to live in "subjection" because of the teachings of Paul?
