  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

It’s becoming much clearer how and why so many on the right seemingly have no problem with Trump’s antidemocratic attacks on our electoral system. They never believed in universal suffrage to begin with. Tossing out votes and undoing elections are as close as they can get to flat out denying someone their right to vote.

I see. So, to be clear, the only thing that allows one to be fit to vote in your view is if they can be called upon by the government to die for their country. This is the sole criteria by which we are to classify citizenship in your view?
No. It is about woman's equality.

OK. So here's the plan.

All men in the country, both citizens and non-citizens, are legally required to register for the draft when they turn 18. You want to extend this to include women, which is fine with me. The right to vote will be conditioned on registration--in fact registration to vote and registration for the draft will become a single act.

That seems fair.
But...but...the Bible!

Don't forget there are two holes being dug here.

No. It is about woman's equality.
Yet when shown that feminists do agree that they should sign up for selective service you move the goal posts and then claim, yet again, that they do not want to sign up for the draft. It seems a whole lot less about equality and more about about trying to paint people you oppose as wrong or hypocritical.

According to you, if you can't register for the draft then you don't vote. Is it just women to which that should apply? If it is then that is blatant, undeniable, rolled gold misogyny.

No one has been drafted since 1973 when it was abolished.
The draft was halted, not abolished. Otherwise, what is selective service for? Answer, in case the draft needs to be reinstated.

Abolish Selective Service or make it mandatory for all. Simple.

Alternatively, instate mandatory voting.

Again, this is a red herring. Ineligibility for the draft has zero consequence on whether someone in a representative democracy gets to vote. And, it's NEVER mattered i the US.

The pastors in the OP are seeking to disenfranchise 51% of the US population. Purely because of their sex.

Adults ought to to be enfranchised to vote regardless of selective service or no. Though I do believe it should be entirely abolished, just as a matter of principle. There shouldn't even be a correlation between the two.

The mere being a citizen is itself sufficient grounds for having the right to vote. The vote is not a privilege which can be doled out to whomever those in power deem worthy; it is the inalienable right of all people living as citizens in our democracy.

We've all read your posts. You've explained your position perfectly.

Are you going to continue discussing politics even though you won't be voting?

Whatever. Do women want equality or not? The truth is that women cannot handle the responsibilities and expectations than men endure...period. Both physically, mentally, and emotionally. Women need men just as much as men need women. In armed conflict, women have proven time and time again that they are incapable. The science proves that even in the stone age, women needed men to protect and sustain them. This is still true today. Even the most entitled "boss babe" man hating feminist depend on men daily to fix their cars, build their roads, fix their AC, clean their sewers, and build their homes. The list goes on and on.

There was a "woman strike" several years ago in Europe in which thousands of women simultaneously took leave to make a statement about how important their roles were. Do you know what the common result was? No new HR complaints!

Furthermore, there is a growing trend of women on TikTok crying in their cars about how modern feminism lied to them because they are now in their late 30's or early 40's and did everything they were told would make them happy. They have accomplished all their goals, and move up the corporate ladder, but now they cannot find a man to enjoy it with. They cry, "Where did all the good men go!" All the good men were rejected by them years ago and have now found good women and married them hand have children. Now, they are alone in their apparment with only their cat to show them affection. Truly sad.

Going back to the OP topic, as much as people hate the truth, the truth is that women who follow traditional values such as the wife in the video, are generally happier than those who follow modern women values and feminist ideology.

So I have no problem showing chivalry to a traditional woman who holds traditional and biblical values such as those outlined in Ephesians 5, but for the modern women who think they are not just equal to a man, but better, they are on their own. I will treat them just like any other man, they will fix their own cars, carry their own heavy luggage, and open their own doors. And God forbid one tries to assault me, I will fight them like a man. The least they can do is grow a pair that they think they deserve and sign up for the draft if they wish to vote, have any federal employment, or benefits. Why? Because that is what men have to do. Modern women cannot survive a week if they actually received equality with men and were treated the same way.

Bottom line: TRADITIONAL WOMEN WHO SUBMIT TO THEIR HUSBANDS AND FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS OUTLINED IN EPHESIANS 5 ARE HAPPIER THEN THOSE WHO DONT!

Wow.

That "whatever" is such a tell on yourself.

The rest of that bilious spew isn't worth the time it would take to dismantle it.

There ya go. Keep poking around long enough, keep scratching away at the facade and you won't have to drag the truth out into the open. Eventually it will crawl out into the sunlight all by itself. Which is where it should be.

Well, that's a highly illustrative rant.
It's very sad. I feel sorry for the guy. What should really concern us, though, is how conservative Christianity has encouraged that warped fantasy he has wrapped himself in.
