Thanks seeking1 for clearing all that up. I think now I could tell you from Adam's cat. And thanks for the link to the complementarian view. I did read it. I guess I should admit that I'm not OCD on keeping the Bible, but hold rather to, whatever works.

I'm a male too, but resent the short shrift women have gotten from the beginning ... the Genesis story basically threw them under the bus. But I understand that a woman became the mother of God. Can you get any higher honor than that? And look at the intimacy young teen Mary shared with the Spirit of God! No man has ever achieved that.

And I hope you had a good Friday, and hope you enjoy the Easter Bunny and Egg ... the feminine symbols and celebration of the fecundity of Spring.

And by the way all. If we're gonna be OCD about scripture, let's not forget about Sophia (wisdom), that was elevated in Proverbs 8, to being Gods' consort from the beginning. That's an outstanding honor to women too.
