    I could have said "Jimi Hendirxed" or "Janis Joplined" or many other.  No,
    the theories are just late nite bull sessions I've been a part of.  People
    get together and someone proposes some weird theory with no facts to back it
    up but we discuss it.  The more paranoia in it the better it sounds.

    If Morrison was done in by the Am. secret police I couldn't prove it, not
    even begin to.  Perhaps humans will know more in 100 years but that type of
    information, if there is any, is slow coming out, usually.

    The story goes that Morrison as well as others who were corrupting
    (uncorrupting) the youth of America had to be stopped and that was a job for
    a CIA operative.  Take it for what it is worth and consider the source.

    Why, what have you heard and what is your feelings, overuse of substances
    that don't agree with maintaining the flesh, plot?

    Re:  Sure there will be disagreements, but why should the man ALWAYS get the
    last word in? It makes more sense that the woman gets the last word because
    she is home all the time.

    Head of the household, head of the home, head of the family, etc.  I think
    we have 2 different thoughts here, you and I, on just what this means.  My
    wife is head of the household, but I am head of the family.  My wife runs
    the household and with my blessings.  She does whatever she decides is
    right, but there is a point where she would stop and confer with me before
    going ahead with her plan.  For example, if she wants to put in a desert
    landscape, new wall to wall carpet, or put on a new roof.  She would never
    consider going ahead without my input and permission.  I have no problem
    with this.  I'm not sure if or why you do have a problem with it.  Would you
    really put in new wall to wall carpeting without asking Whitey first?  If he
    said no, would you go ahead and put it in anyway?  Is it possible we really
    do agree on this issue?

    Re:  you disagreing with "they must bear children etc." How can you disagree
    with that? it states it right where I said it was in the Bible in clear,
    precise words.

    No, the Bible doesn't say "women must bear children", but you ask me not to
    quote from the Bible so what can I say?

    Let me set the record straight.  I do not want to listen to women preach.
    They do not belong in the pulpit.

    Re:  I will admit something - that it totally rankles me like a fingernail
    on a blackboard does when I hear some man state he is head of the household.

    My wife is head of the household; I am head of the family.

    Re:  Rebellion against what? What if one wears his hair long is rebelling?
    So what? How bad is that?

    Most rebellion is against some authority.  I think all rebellion is wrong.
    There may be a few cases when I would say it is OK.  I think some juvenile
    delinquents wear long hair like a badge of rebellion against their parents.
    In so many words they say, "I know my parents dislike my long hair, but I
    will wear it long anyway just because it rankles them."

    Re:  You didn't comment on Paul's .... "but any woman that prays or
    prophesies with her head unveiled, dishonors her head"  or "any man who
    prays or prophesies with his head covered, dishonors his head" "... it is
    disgraceful for a women to be shorn or shaven" Or "that nature teaches that
    for a man to wear long hair is degrading to him"

    I don't see a problem with praying in any situation or condition.  Again I
    think the problem area Paul was addressing was rebellion in the church.

    Re:  I know what your answer is going to be, but do you in your heart
    believe that God took the time to give Paul these mundane, unimportant
    revelations for mankind to live by???? AND - if they are not followed, then
    you are refused Heaven or at least have God frown at you???

    My answer is yes, as you know.  I believe the entire Bible is God's word,
    supernaturally inspired so that it is inerrant in the original manuscripts
    and has been preserved by God, so that it is the divinely authoritative
    standard for every age and every life.  You are only refused Heaven if you
    die rejecting Jesus Christ.

    Re:  So, how come Bonnie's hair isn't long?

    Long and short are relative terms.  Bonnie's hair is long.  My hair is
    short.  Bonnie's hair is longer than mine; mine is shorter than hers.  How
    short or long is too short or long or not short or long enough?

    So if a man with *rather* long hair (for a man) gets married to a woman with
    still longer hair, they're all set.  And a guy with a crew-cut can get
    married to a gal with *rather* short hair (for a gal).  But what if that
    fellow with *rather* long hair gets married to the broad with *rather* short
    hair, and his hair turns out to be longer than hers?  Does she have to grow
    her hair, or does he have to get his cut?  Boy, that's just what we need --

    Like Cliff, I have no problem with people using handles.  If people use
    *different* names at different times, then that's a problem, because I would
    like to know that the person who posted message X is the same person who
    posted message Y.  But who cares what the person's *real* name is?  What are
    we going to do with the information -- sell them a subscription to Playboy?
    Go round to their house and duff them up? (as we say in England).

    People's posts speak for themselves.  You get to know who the person is from
    what they post.  Take Mike Carter's post on women.  I don't need to know his
    name is Mike (and that's confusing anyway, because "Michael Learned" is a
    woman (ugh!)).  It's obvious that a man wrote the post.  People will react
    violently to it, but it does have good points that need answering.  It isn't
    as "effed up" (as someone said before they got censored) as all that.

     MC>>The majority of women think more along chanels of how things, people
     MC>>and functions *feel* to them[...]  Men think more on the nuts and bolts
     MC>>line. The logic so to speak.  They think about subjects and how things
     MC>>interact and affect others in the processes....not how they feel.

    Indeed, it was just that difference that made it obvious the post was
    written by a man, not by a woman.  It was so cold, so dry, so lifeless, with
    no feeling, no emotion, no *passion* whatsoever...

    ...er, what are you all laughing at?

      The differences between men and women go deeper than just
    childbearing. Men are not biologically equipped to nurse
    infants until they are able to eat solid food. For this reason,
    most societies have considered it logical and natural to give
    the primary care of infants and young children to their mothers.
      Since children have limited mobility, this generally means that
    the women are assigned homemaking and housekeeping tasks as well.
      Men, having larger bodies and muscles, have traditionally been
    assigned the tasks involving heavy physical labor, and as a result
    of women's caring for children, are more free to move longer
    distances: so they have traditionally been given responibility
    for outside and outdoor tasks.
      Even though most of these tasks are to some degree
    interchangeable, and can be done by both men and women as
    circumstances may require, attempts to entirely erase the social
    distinctions have their own consequences. For instance: if mothers
    are also lawyers, plumbers, backhoe operators, engineers, and
    so on, who is raising their children?

     The physical differences between men and women are especially
    evident and significant in athletics. There are separate men's
    and women's teams and sports because women are at a disadvantage
    and men tend to dominate mixed or coed sports. It is generally at
    the request of women that separate women's divisions are recognized.
      There are also subtle psychological differences, and I put the
    emphasis on subtle. I believe that women are, generally speaking,
    better fitted for early care of infants psychologically as well as
    biologically. I doubt that this is just male prejudice: often when I
    helped care for my younger brothers, "mommy" was the only thing that
    would satisfy what they wanted. Big brother or sister or Daddy
    or food or clean diapers wouldn't do, sometimes.
      I would also say that men seem to be generally more competitive
    and agressive that women.  Considering  that it is generally men
    who abuse and dominate women: not the other way around, I would
    say that that at least points to a DIFFERENCE between the sexes.

    formidable task, your ambition is to be commended.  I haven't seen any
    progress on your part yet, but keep me informed; especially when you give

        I personally do not care if you think that Christianity is a vile thing

    God himself came down and set you straight on things.  Yes, look at what it
    has done for me, if you can see through your brick wall of bias and hatred.

        I'm glad you are happy with your vocation.  I don't plan on doing

    to you because you cannot see past your own nose.  You are so filled with
    contempt for anything and anyone related with God and His Word, that it
    comes as no surprise that everything I say sails about twenty feet over your
    head.  You parrot on and on about how we Christians are so mindless and
    brainless, that it tends to become monotonous and ceases to be even mildly
    amusing.  You, Rod, are guilty of everything that you condemn me of.

        So, I twist words, eh?  If I even took your flippant accusations

       Literalists have read the books of Romans and Hebrews, too.  Apparently
    you haven't.  Literal readers (I prefer the term over "literalists" as I
    feel to read the Bible literally means to read it as the writers (and God as

        The fact that there are so many interpretations is not because the word

    to approach the word and put our presuppositions and biases aside.
    Justification comes from faith in Christ, and is not limited to any

        Ann, your posts are quite long, and I should certainly capture them and

        Before I reply to them, though, can I ask you a question?  Will my
    response to them change anything?  The fact that you demand that I not quote
    the Bible while defending attacks ON the Bible is a real puzzler.  Will my
    responding to your posts in any way change your view, at least to the extent
    that you will not oppose my right to have the views that I have?  If not,
    indeed, would my response just be a mere striving after wind?  (Oops, an
    unintentional quote from Ecclesiastes, sorry about that.)  If your request
    to clarify that which I feel I have already made quite clear regarding my
    views, is not going to achieve anything other than to justify in your own
    mind your opinion that I'm wrong -- then is there really any purpose in
    spending an hour, or two (as I frequently do when I do respond to a post
    offline) laboring for a fruitless cause?  You already said in the very first
    post of your series that you felt that I have no mind of my own.  Do you
    really think that gives me incentive to take the time to sit down and write
    a thoughtful response to your posts?  You have already made it clear that
    you do not respect my opinion on the matter (which I can deal with), but you
    have also made it clear that you do not respect my right to have the opinion
    that I do regarding the roles of men and women in society.  If we were all
    supposed to do the same things, think the same thoughts, and so forth, why
    indeed would we be created differently?  Why, indeed were we not created as
    hermaphrodites? (Rhetorical questions.)  In short, if you care so little

    >> I don't know why I bothered to send these long posts when Bill said it so
    >> well in one post.

        So in other words, you really don't want my views.  You just want to
    express your own opinions so that you can bask in the glory of them, with
    the hopes that I'll get all flustered because of them.
        You really don't want a reply.  You said yourself that you don't know
    why you even bothered writing them.  So I don't see any reason why I should
    bother replying to them.
        I will read them offline, though.
        Thanks for showing me how open and unbiased you are to other ideas.
    Perhaps we can get into a real meaningful debate sometime. Like over which
    member of Bon Jovi has the cutest buns. [Hey, isn't that female sexism?
    Exploitation of men?]  Anyhow, have a pleasant tomorrow.

        Gee, whenever you lose the argument, you have to go off into a rant.
    Seems you go off into rants quite often.

        Also, since Christ spoke against public prayer when it was done to
    impress men and not to give honor to God, what's to say that all of us
    Christians on Apollo form a prayer chain around Rod's house. At least we
    know that he won't be impressed.

        No, she doesn't have me on the ropes.  She's just shadow boxing.
    Actually, she can't understand why she wasted so much time in the ring.

        Actually, I'm not about boxing.  I'm about the exchange of opinions,
    even if they disagree with my own.  And I'm not against responding to
    someone -- that is if they credit me with having brain one in my head and
    feel that it's more than a waste of their time to even ask questions.

        You say that there is no difference between men and women.  Then you go
    on to say that men are stronger, and women are more emotionally stable.
    Sounds like a difference to me.  Be consistent.

    Jasmine and I share the responsibilities, equally, as friends and partners.
    Sometimes she has the better answer and sometimes I do.  Seldom do we
    disagree where it causes stress.  We've been in this business a long while.

    That was a good post to me.  Hey, I sure wish this god of yours would come
    and straighten me out.  But how would I know if it were the correct god?
    Any clues?  What does this god look like?  Does he have a beard?  How would
    I know that it wasn't Satan tricking me?  I'm only human, you know?

    It seems a shame that your God doesn't help you Christians out?  He is very
    powerful, you say.  Seems like it could do more.  Perhaps when the coffee
    break is over this thing will stomp me and sentence me to eternal
    punishment, eh?  Perhaps It is much like the wizard in Oz.

    Well, just keep praying that your God gives you the wisdom to make others
    understand.  That's what you'd like, to see others as happy as you, right?

    But then who would you look down on?  Gotta have those otherwise you'd never
    see how damn high you were, right?

    Maybe you can get one of the arch angles to help you out if God is busy and
    then I would see the light and be born again.    -Rod

    P.S.  Too bad about the bibical Paul, eh?

    I most probably have done worse than those forty evil adults who made fun of
    a bald head and sinned real bad and forgot to ask forgiveness because god
    didn't give them time to so he killed them dead.

    Gee, I wonder what the big man has reserved for Me?  Dunno, but considering
    how smart the dude must be from all that I've heard, I'll just bet that He
    has something even more creative than a she-bear, righto?

    Maybe, I'll get a he-bear as we all know that he-bears are better than
    she-bears anyday.  Or just perhaps I'll get eaten alive by big sewer rats
    but I won't be able to die, no, I'll just have to endure that pain.

    Maybe these little imps of hell will pull small patches of my skin off and
    then salt it, forever.  Wow, O' wow, won't that smart.

    Or maybe He will razorblade my eyeballs and then make them heal up real
    quick (he can heal, you know), then razorblade them again and again.

    Or just perhaps a combination of the above.  Eternity is endless you know
    and the combinations and possibilities are too.

                                    What, me worry?
