I wish we could get our legal system to believe this!! But no, thanks to the feminists of the Duluth Model of 1981 for convincing the nation that women and children don't need husbands and fathers. "According to the Duluth Model, 'women and children are vulnerable to violence because of their UNEQUAL social, economic, and political status in society.'" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duluth_model) God already said that we're all equal, so they're renouncing God and lying to all of mankind, and also stereotyping based on gender and physical size. The way to "right" this "wrong" according to feminists, is for the woman to exercise a stronger social, economic, and political status in opposition to the man, and to teach her female children to do so as well. As always, God never enters into the mindset or ideology. A women is apt to think, "in order to right God's wrong that I'm in all ways less than my man (according to my perception), I need to stand up to him and fight him back. I can use police and lawyers and women-only social and business groups to show myself to be stronger than him. Then when I think he's learned his lesson, we'll be 'equal.' Shame on our past Christian culture, and shame on God for making that man think he was the head of anything. We'll be equal when I, and only I, think we're equal, not because God SAYS we're equal." Additionally, if a man buys into this garbage, he is likely to treat the woman not as a woman, but as his exact mirror-image equal: another man. When men lose it, they often degrade to blows with one another. And if that should happen to him with his woman, he fulfills the fears and lies of feminism that she's been looking for, and she ramps up her legal defenses and police action against him, who in turn are happy to oblige her because they believe the same thing. And the whole relationship spirals downward. The solution? Daily repentance and humbly seeking the Lord, Jesus Christ, who makes all things new, and puts things back in order! :)
Anonymous feedback:" I think you turned a really positive picture completely negative."
My response:
Sorry if it stirs up negative feelings. :( This is the trick of the devil that has almost destroyed my life and relationship with my kids. I studied this in college and have become very familiar with the feminist movement, including the satanic upper echelons. I know it sounds to some people like I hate all women because I'm an anti-feminist, but that's a simplistic view that's not even worthy of comment. This feminism ideology is not about the right to vote and earn equal pay. It's about defying God's divine order in the world, and ultimately, it's about power and control. It hurts a lot and I'd love to see society change its court system to a model that supports BOTH parents. Some states are experimenting with other models besides this one, but it hasn't happened on a grand scale yet. If women feel inferior to men, they're hanging around the wrong men, and they should get more aquainted with their true identity in Christ. The Bride of Christ, the church submits (or should submit) to Christ in everything, and whenever we do, we left feeling great about ourselves because He gave up everything for us. That's Love! In marriage we manifest that Christ-Church relationship and take on similar roles. Women love men who give their all to win their love, and men love women who honor and respect them. But woman's antipathy for man comes from the curse that God gave when man sinned in Genesis: "Your desire shall be for your husband and he shall rule over you." The original Hebrew text does not indicate a desire to be with him and love him, it's a desire to DEVOUR him. It's God's curse on woman because of the Fall, it's not a blessing. Man's curse is that all his work will be very difficult and often with little result. The redemption is found in God's grace through Christ's death on the cross for His bride, the Church. I should ask you, did you read the whole comment? And aren't you a Christian? I think you are, and you would know that the only solution to our sinful nature is Christ's sacrifical death for our sins. We can't fix ourselves even if we try. My post is law and Gospel. It's a hard lesson with an easy, wonderful answer to the problem! Ideas take about 4-5 years to become present-day reality, so in about 2017 I think we'll start seeing new models pervade family court and domestic law enforcement.
