Well actually we do know more about being married then someone who is single. For instance? We know how saying "spanking the kitty" would make us sound like a bad Playboy interview with Austin Powers. Some single people wouldn't understand that.

Have you ever spoken to someone who's marriage was saved by it? Do married male friends even confide such personal details to you at all? That takes earning a lot of trust from someone, rather than being a snide back stabbing "friend".

A polemic question asking for a Biblical reference to the word chick
Some are called contumacious, depending on the translation. What is the difference between a contumacious woman and a chick, pray tell?

Obviously I was not referring to the word chick when I made reference to my four Biblical quotes. I was refering to concepts, not specific words.

Uhm Mike, if nothing else you at least saw the fullfillment of that comment in this thread, although I believe the proper quote is:

Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned.

:help:


Which verse is that? :scratch: ^_^

Is it me or does anything this person has to say make sense? He wants a Word 'war'. I am not going to participate in that. I am in shock that this is even a real person saying such...stuff...

It's not just you. :(

I've actually encountered someone very similar on another board. It is really hard to believe these people take themselves seriously.

Don't let him upset you.

God bless,

Tad

Ironically, if you look at my homepage, most of my CF friends are Catholic, including the former CAD. I have been acknowledged by numerous Catholics as the greatest defender of orthodoxy and Catholicism on GT, even as I am an orthodox Methodist who is not a Catholic.

You just walked up and made a quick and fast judgment.



(It certainly is annoying that the quote function doesn't work at all for me in this thread and this thread alone...?)

Who is smacking whom? Everyone is attacking me and the Bible as well, and I am defending myself, as well as the Bible. You are defending your ego, not the Bible.

Your defending your ego and your particularly bizarre interpretation of the bible.

Am I going to have to repeat this on every page?

Bible quote review:


1 Timothy 2:11-15

11 (V)A woman must quietly receive instruction with entire submissiveness.

12 (W)But I do not allow a woman to teach or exercise authority over a man, but to remain quiet.

13 (X)For it was Adam who was first created, and then Eve.

14 And it was not Adam who was deceived, but (Y)the woman being deceived, fell into transgression.

15 But women will be preserved through the bearing of children if they continue in (Z)faith and love and sanctity with self-restraint.


1 Peter 3:1-7

1 Likewise, ye wives, be in subjection to your own husbands; that, if any obey not the word, they also may without the word be won by the conversation of the wives;

2 While they behold your chaste conversation coupled with fear.

3 Whose adorning let it not be that outward adorning of plaiting the hair, and of wearing of gold, or of putting on of apparel;

4 But let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible, even the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price.

5 For after this manner in the old time the holy women also, who trusted in God, adorned themselves, being in subjection unto their own husbands:

6 Even as Sara obeyed Abraham, calling him lord: whose daughters ye are, as long as ye do well, and are not afraid with any amazement.

7 Likewise, ye husbands, dwell with them according to knowledge, giving honour unto the wife, as unto the weaker vessel


Ecclesiastes 7:26-28

26 I find more bitter than death
the woman who is a snare,
whose heart is a trap
and whose hands are chains.
The man who pleases God will escape her,
but the sinner she will ensnare.
27 "Look," says the Teacher, [a] "this is what I have discovered:
"Adding one thing to another to discover the scheme of things-
28 while I was still searching
but not finding—
I found one upright man among a thousand,
but not one upright woman among them all.

1 Corinthians 14:34

As in all the congregations of the saints, 34 women should remain silent in the churches. They are not allowed to speak, but must be in submission, as the Law says. 35 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.

LOL! No one's having a problem with the Bible, we just don't think you and the Bible are the same thing. :)

That is not what most Catholics have said over the course of the year that I have been here. How long have you been here?

In a thread about 5 months ago on who is the best debater on GT, my name was mention most often, and mostly by Catholics.

I agree with TadofLamb,

Honestly I have known others who (by now) would have most likely received a ban (and have) for lesser offenses then I have witnessed here.

Though there was made mention (by him) that the moderation in some respects adores him.

It appears there must be some truth in his statement.

Peace

I never claimed to be the Bible. Are you capable of making a serious argument that is not just a snide quip?

I don't see how those scriptures validate your bigotry.

You said you and the Bible were being attacked in this thread can you point out where anyone said anything about scriptures?
