Re the 'beheading' of that poor Muslim wife
Edited on Fri Feb-20-09 04:15 PM by malaise
Aren't most domestic murders 'honor' killings? I think that's a gross description of this murder.
It's fugging domestic violence but humans kill their partners because egos are bruised and they can't take rejection. Whether it's a gun, a knife or beheading, it's domestic violence.
As the lady is saying what is the difference between decapitation and beheading?
The next time a wife is murdered I want to see a headline that a Christian man used the sexism associated with his religion as an excuse for killing her. Afterall is there a single religion that does not deem women inferior.
Gr.

2. All the religions which held women in high esteem
were knocked out by the Christian religon. Many Native American and I think the Celtic religions respected women. I was reading that book about Buddah and he said something to the effect that if women were welcomed into the fold enlightment wouldn't be reached for, what 500 years (?) because they were too tempting to men. Okay, like there weren't gays then? I was so mad I tossed the book on the ground. As far as the Christian religon goes, that St. Paul sure didn't have any respect for women.
Seriously ? WTF ?

36. religion is "the" factor in this instance as much as democracy was 'the' factor
in the invasion of Iraq.
It's a scapegoat. A ruse. A banner we place, (or allow to be placed) on actions that are based when you come right down to the truth- entirely on our personal decisions to actually physically take action, or not.
The scariest thing for most people to grasp (imo) is the realization that the potential to do the most evil/vile/terrible things- the very things we fear that others will do to us, exists within us all. And the only real hope we have to stop murder, is when we reject it as an option ourselves
You are buying into the retoric. We both agree that beheading someone is wrong. But it doesn't matter what reason the murderer tries to hide their action behind. What matters is what they allow themselves to do.
peace~

25. Violence against woman is common to
most religions. I agree with you - this is not about any one religion - it is about domestic violence.
That's the key point here. I don't understand M$Greedia's spin more than a week after this horrific murder.
Really offensive thread.
One of the worst I've seen over there.

Oh bull ****ing shit. I'm IN the bible belt and ALL guys I know that consider themselves Christians pretty much know who's in control. ....and it ain't the damn men. It's a slow process, but after a few years you find yourself not even thinking when your wife asks you to do something, you just do it. Sooner or later you start thinking, "Damn, where'd my balls go?".
DUmmies are about some f'n morons.

BTW, I am a Christian. ......I just cuss a whole, helluva lot.

Hmmm...Paul said:
Eph 5: 25 Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it;
26 That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word,
27 That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.
28 So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife loveth himself.
29 For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as the Lord the church:
...
Eph 5:33 Nevertheless let every one of you in particular so love his wife even as himself; and the wife [see] that she reverence [her] husband.
It is a truth that marriages run as advised in the Bible are pleasing to both spouses.

Doesn't his letter to the Romans also serve as an introduction for the deaconess that carried the letter? Humanist idiots think that seeing men and women as having different abilities and different roles is sexist. Plus, most of DU has never even opened a bible.
