Pastors have families without a problem. You need to look at the history of it. And we don't have a bunch of horny people around our wife and kids. Still human. Sex drives are odd. A persistent drive that finally motivates. Well intentioned people with perverted sex drives think I will just go...

And then we can get on the celibacy issue. Probably be more relevant that priests and nuns have to feed the poor.

YES!

In this case equal is a matter of the same opportunities in church and society.

Women should have the same opportunities in church and society.

Pretty much what you said. Women should have the same opportunities in church and society.

No. But with over 30.000 denominations, some treat women better than others.

Kind of one sided. A guy with 5 wives could divorce one to marry a younger wife. And the wife did not get the kids or property. The wife could not divorce her husband. If she just left it was automatically considered adultery and she could be killed. Even in Christianity a wife could not...

How women were treated back then. And how we should treat them now.

Are you asking where sins are listed in the Bible?

Thoughts?

LOL You did not read the post. I said real sins have to be in the scriptures.

You and I do not disagree on much but on this we do. The scriptures say there is no difference between men and women in the eyes of the Lord but the concept does not follow through. There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is no male and female, for you are all one...

These are man-made sins but they do not apply to all denominations and it is not a conclusive list. Sex….False beliefs regarding sex tops the list….I could write a book about this from several angles and levels….physical, physiological, and spiritual….Christianity is full of these and most do...

More equal today than they use to be. Women blamed for the fall of man. Women saved by child birthing. Women to be silent in church. No authority over men. Women should not be pastors. The chain of command in a family.

Of course we should avoid sin, and real biblical sins are named specifically in the scriptures.

Again what would the New Testament be without Christ's sacrifice on the cross?
