I'm proud of my children who spent the day sharing the Good News on "Mother's Day" that God will not tolerate uppity women. In Cedar Rapids, Iowa, the heavy metal band Slipknot played their death culture music, but some of us reminded the party goers the real party doesn't happen if they don't repent.
Hemant Mehta, the "friendly" atheist posted about this. I like the following comment because it shows the mental gymnastics heathens do in order to avoid facing the superior logic of the Bible:
A reader by the name of "OooShiny" made this comment:
Quote:
Replacing "women" on that sign with Jews or blacks better illustrates the slavery and perpetual shame it's demanding of women into under the guise of morality.
Claiming that, merely because of my gender, I should sacrifice my mind, my heart, my will and my dreams to someday maybe qualify as worthy of a man's love and of a silent God's grace is a threat to my well-being, my freedom and my humanness.
Fundamentalist men's demands that women be silent, and that we be grateful for it, are not just a difference of opinion but a warning of their very real policy of cultic religious abuse.
Such demands for total power and control over women are not just unhealthy but obscene to the point of sociopathic.

But let's take a look at this, shall we?
"Slavery and perpetual shame ... under the guise of morality." Sounds awful, doesn't it? So oppressive! But the truth is, we are slaves either to sin or to Christ. One or the other. There is no in between, there is no middle of the road. One is born into servitude, like it or not (Romans 6:22). The prudent thing to do is learn how to exchange your master from one that leads to eternal damnation, to one that leads to eternal life (Matthew 25:46).
Now who's the sociopath? The one who wants people to run towards Hell, or the one who wants to save souls?
