If being a sub is her kink, she can do that. If she likes being a sub, why is she so bossy?

She doesn't have to listen to you, you're not her first or second husband.

[–] Jax@sh.itjust.works 22 points 1 day ago

Since we're going back to the caveman days all I need to do is kill her husbands and she becomes my wife.

That's what she wants, right? For women to become property again?

[–] tal@lemmy.today 11 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

Apparently she's on her third, not second.

EDIT: Though apparently her first husband abused their son, so now I feel a little bad.

How the everloving fuck does she know what God wants?

[–] tal@lemmy.today 13 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (7 children)

It's from a passage in the Bible.

Ephesians 5:22-24:

Wives, submit yourselves to your own husbands as you do to the Lord.  For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, his body, of which he is the Savior.  Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit to their husbands in everything.

That was written by a human, not God.

[–] tal@lemmy.today 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Ah, yes, but a divinely-inspired human, no doubt, acting on God's will to relay His message.

https://biblehub.com/topical/t/the_power_of_divine_inspiration.htm

Divine inspiration is a foundational concept in Christian theology, referring to the process by which God imparts His wisdom and guidance to humanity. This inspiration is most notably associated with the authorship of the Bible, where human writers were moved by the Holy Spirit to convey God's truth. The power of divine inspiration is evident in the transformative impact of Scripture, its enduring relevance, and its ability to guide believers in faith and practice.

[–] barneypiccolo@lemm.ee 8 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

Like I said, written by a human. The rest, like the entire Bible, or even religion itself, is also a human construct.

[–] DancingBear@midwest.social 3 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

Written by a schizophrenic human

[–] barneypiccolo@lemm.ee 4 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

Maybe, but a lot was written by neolithic goatherders telling stories to pass the time, in an age before Netflix. One guy had a good aptitude for making up good stories, and they got passed down.

My mom used to force us to go to church all the time, but she finally stopped when the pastor did a sermon on that one.

"President Trump spoke to me in a dream. He looked exactly like God." /s

[–] olympicyes@lemmy.world 57 points 1 day ago (6 children)

FYI to Lemmy non-Christian’s: Paula White is an incredibly controversial figure in the evangelical community. Specifically, many believe her to be perpetuating fraud by demanding money from her followers in exchange for specific acts of prosperity provided by God (and even to ask God to smite your enemies). This differs from traditional tithing which typically is used for salaries, services (keeping the lights on), and community outreach.

Why evangelicals can’t point to her malfeasance as evidence of Trump’s corruption is a mystery to me. Additionally many conservative Christians don’t believe women should be in a position of authority, citing the same scripture she is here as evidence. If she were morally consistent she’d quit her “ministry” and go home.

God has an order

1 Corinthians 11:6:

For if a woman does not cover her head, she might as well have her hair cut off; but if it is a disgrace for a woman to have her hair cut off or her head shaved, then she should cover her head.

Put your hat on, Paula. I'm definitely seeing uncovered hair there, and we know how God is about that.

Preaching to the innocent masses with that sinful outfit.

[–] Charlxmagne@lemmy.world 17 points 1 day ago (4 children)

Ofc Trump has a fucking faith office. I wouldn't be surprised in the slightest if he tried implementing biblical laws like some type of Christian version of Sharia law, or called for teaching creationism as fact in schools.

[–] Hyphlosion@lemm.ee 5 points 1 day ago

Maybe he really is the antichrist.

If anybody wants a reason religion needs to die look no further than subjugation of half our population for religion to exist.

[–] baronvonj@lemmy.world 67 points 1 day ago (3 children)

How could she accept the role of the head of an office if she thinks women should submit to men?

[–] dylanmorgan@slrpnk.net 36 points 1 day ago

Hypocrisy is the water conservative “Christians” swim in.

She needs to get back in the kitchen and make some sandwiches and be seen and not heard.

[–] Zombiepirate@lemmy.world 101 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Sounds like she shouldn't have gotten divorced three times if she gave a fuck what Jesus said.

But the prosperity gospel types know they're scammers, so she'll laugh all the way to the bank.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Problem_of_evil

The problem of evil is the philosophical question of how to reconcile the existence of evil and suffering with an omnipotent, omnibenevolent, and omniscient God.
