"It wasnt the helicopters ...
It was beauty that killed the beast."
yea .. i watched the 3 hour movie... Why? because A was so into watching it and so excited that i went out to rent it .. he was a giddish school boy .. and i figured renting it before buying it sounded like a good idea just to make sure that he liked it. did it matter? i hated it .. i mean really ---dinosaurs? A loved it .. but then again he has seen all the old films in black and white and he thought it was the greatest. I have never seen even one of the King Kong Movies. (is there more than one .. i dont even know)
After taking a week off we are back to a daily. Not a couple .. thank goodness .. not ready for couple hood... but back to a daily with A.
okay so on to more important things...
A friend of mine who is very religious and goes to church regularly is having marital problems. Not sure what she should do .. the problem is .. (and i find this is very common with couples who start bible studies) ... that her husband no longer helps around the house and is very dominant. Now why is that? Bible study should make a couple more respectful towards each other and more willing to help each other in need. three of the 4 couples that gathered together on Mondays are having this problem... I went into this group already divorced but i went through it as well. Seems that since the bible teaches different scriptures on women being submissive and men the head of the house, men begin to change. Readings that state "if the woman is to learn .. let the man teach her". Okay i've read these scriptures .. i get it. I understand how men can let it go to their heads.... but really .. Men dont take it literally.
It causes problems......Okay i've met her husband .. and he takes the scripture way to literal... if the woman is to learn .. let the man teach her... the problem with this is that the man should know and understand before he "teaches" his woman. If the man hasnt a clue .. the woman should teach him.
we have had our friendly "discussions" in which i tell him that he is completely wrong about what he is talking about .. and i have yet to be invited back for group discussions .. (he doesnt take corrections well) but i think (and i told her) that the bible is a guide to life .. its Life.. for dummies. understand that it is inspired by the Word of God but it is not God's word. It is still written by men and those teachings are to be used for good not evil. Being submissive to man doesnt mean to do as he says .. The way i see it .. its okay to let the man wear the pants in the house ... just be sure to control the belt that holds them up.
