Man-Kind has always been male dominated. Man has ruled the majority of history and still continue to do so. Women knew their place back then and MAN kept them there. Man has been the propeller for which the Earth has progressed. Man Invented Electricity, the Presses, Irrigation systems, building tools, the car and more recently the computer and the Internet. the list can go on but those few highlights represent the achievement of MAN.
Who is Sarah Palin?

Blew it on that one
WOMEN started civilization. WOMEN were the first to start planting the best seed. This practice started while mankind were still hunter gatherers. WOMEN were the first to domesticate livestock from baby animals and keep MAN from killing them. Women were the first to discover COOKING. This allowed inedibles like Grains, Beans and Potatoes to be added to the diet because cooking destroys most of the toxins. This also allowed long term food storage.
Why do you think the bible says "do not suffer a witch to live" WOMEN were the ones who stayed home, farmed and kept civilization going WHILE the men were off hunting and fighting. WOMEN were the ones with knowledge of herbs and health care. WOMEN were the foundation of a village not men and therefore invading men wanted to kill of the village leaders - WOMEN who just might organize a poisoning party
Heck WHO do you think ran the castles during the Dark Ages while the Knights and Lords were off fighting? - WOMEN!
But men have ruled for so long thru force & cruelty -- throughout known history most women have pretty much been cowed into a cormer with the ever-present threat of beatings & rape. It's the raw truth.
When you think of it, it's amazing any civilization has survived considering how destructive men are.

The pale image the republicans are using to counter Hilary Clinton, the 42nd President of the United States.

Yes, when you think of it WOMEN are the civilizing force MEN are the destructive force.
Just look at the horse.
WHY do we mount on the left? Because the sword is hung on the left and drawn with the right hand. mounting on the left keeps you from tangling your legs in the sword as you mount.
WHY do saddles have stirrups? Because stirrups keep you in the saddle making it harder for a pikeman to unseat you. Also rising in the stirrups gives more power to the swing of the sword.
WHY were breast collars invented? Because it took three animals to draw a war chariot when you used a loop around the neck that choked them.
Many of the "Advances" in science are directly related to getting an military advantage. It is still true today.
But I'm NOT a Creationist. And her decision to bear a mongoloid baby, is incomprehensible to me. I hope she does NOT run in 2012.

Unfortunately it is pretty obvious she is being groomed to run in 2012. That Obama is a dud is becoming obvious to those without blinders so I am afraid we are being "herded' into voting for Hilary Clinton in 2012.
Now THAT is a very dangerous woman. She is very intelligent, driven with no patriotism and few morals. If we end up in a dictatorship I can see her being hand picked as the puppet heading it. We KNOW she was at the 2007 Bilderberger meeting when it was decided to run Obama instead of her.
I think that is because they wanted a throwaway to put in place the finishing touches of strangling laws before Hilary took over.
Back on subject. Men are stronger than women and therefore have assumed leadership through brute force. I wonder how many inventions were stolen from women and published with a man's name.
My Husband just read of an account of that yesterday. The guy was so stupid he did not READ the work he stole and got caught with his rear waving in the breeze
I am a chemist and I have had my work stolen on many occasions. If you protest you get slammed by upper management so you give-up and just do you job. It is a real lose lose type problem.

In a household, there doesn't need to be an authority, except as a parent. Both people should always be equal. Same with any relationship. If one person is an authority figure, it becomes parent-child like relationship, and the submissive person is likely to become resentful. Both people have their own strengths.
Christianity should never stand in the way of equality.
No, she is right...its pretty clear in the bible that women are the servents of men. men must respect them, but women must serve.
btw mama. I do hope you are keeping to the other traditions in the bible that have the same amount of weight attached to it, such as no pork, no shellfish, no gheyz, no music, etc...
or are you one of those weird christians that follow the 3 rules that christ said...love yourself, love your neighbor, love god.
but naa..nobody actually follows just those three..old testament (cherry picked of course) is way more popular..this jesus guy was a bit of a heratic..no wonder paul had to tell you how to live which was basically against the teachings of christ.
I wonder though...why is it called christianity if in reality, it is paulianity...hmm
luv ya
Well you dont need a third grade education to suspect THAT, around these parts.
