And did Bushnell fail to reference Parker because Julia got lost on the prairie and went in circles to the left (the weaker)?
You do realize sister (of the Lord) that this argument is specious to say the least ; I suppose male bias is the reason the Hebrews went in circles in the wilderness for 40 years.
