MOW....

The more I think about this the more I can agree with you...

It has taken submission to levels it wasn't supposed to go....

Randy,

I love you man, but this is bunk.

Submission never neutered anybody.

If you want to know what has neutered men, the spirit of Jezebel and a bunch of sissified "Jesus Boyfriend" music has done it.

CS,
did Jez make Ahab, or was Ahab's vacancies what attracted him to his wife?

my vote is ....the latter.

HE TOOK his wife from the family of the King of Zidonians. Pretty sure a guy would know he is playing in the 'big-leagues' when you pick from the household of a King from another people.

IMO, these 'Jez' types look for folks in misplaced roles with access or influence. I think she was the increase of what Ahab sowed.

..........

as for causality enabled by 'boyfriend' music....
I just can not give it that much potency and besides, I find a potential for a "thought-crash" in the middle of the intersection where we read that the Church is being prepared AS A BRIDE for her husband.

And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.
