I'm glad you understand that I didn't mean any offense. The guys are really running with it though. They've accused us of adultery because we're divorcees, EB keeps trying to bring up my PTSD and military service, so many things I've said have been taken out of context. I don't get them. But, I've never truly really understood people who act that way.

I've contemplated putting them on ignore. But I think the better of it when I think of how many descent debates we've had. And they normally come around.

The trouble is that we have a culture where women don't want to be house wives. They are programmed that it is a bad thing and it makes them lesser. All this equal rights stuff has shaped people's thinking. You may not see it but this has a lot to do with the rise of transgenderism, homosexuality, fornication, adultery, etc...

I think some might be programmed. Others might honestly want to do something professional. You know, a woman can be a professional working woman.... and a good mother. The two aren't mutually exclusive.

By what you describe of your family I don't doubt that you are good people. I am sure you help the community and do a lot of good. The thing is we cannot be good enough. The left is not all bad with their end poverty, end hunger and save the environment views, but it is when the ends justify the means that is the problem. We must obey God even though it may not be culturally and politically correct.

I'm not sure I understand. If you're wanting to help out in your community, go out and do it. Most places are dying for volunteers. Of course, it might be more difficult in the Summer time when the kids aren't in school. But certainly while the kids are in school, you can help your community.

I've never thought a house wife was not good enough. I have been deeply disturbed when it was obvious that a woman was selling herself short of her dreams and ambitions. That's not good enough. God gave so many women a life's calling, talents, skills, and dreams. If being a house wife isn't a woman's passion, I believe she should be encouraged to follow her dreams.
