It's wierd how men think women are so irrational when they come home and kick the dog and yell "Where's my supper!" and then their wife doesn't kiss them and say "Welcome home honey!" To the male mind, that's when women are SO irrational.

While all men do have a natural ability and tendencies for dog kicking and yelling for supper, I doubt that the non issuance of a "kiss and welcome home honey " is when the male finds the female least rational.........

Well bless your heart!!!!! My lovely wife of 25 years, who is blond, and our two daughters are all very rational (the majority of the time) and are very intelligent. Although some do question the intelligence of my dear wife in marring me.........


PS. I think women are a gift from God! And I glad my mother was one!

If I were the opposite sex (my husband in particular)...wow that would be incredible. I would have all my meals prepared, my clothes washed and ironed for me, hung in my closet. my needs would be seen to, my checkbook balanced, my groceries shopped for, and all I would do is mow the lawn once every couple of weeks. Wow. Never even thought of it from that standpoint.
Must be nice.

The pastor said "I spoke first and I said that I realized that I would have to leave the church I was attending." He said this exercise hit him hard because he had been somewhat ambivalent on this issue but this exercise made him realize that he would actually have to leave the church he was attending if he was a woman because all his gifts weren't "supposed" to be had by women. He then realized how difficult it must be for women who do have these gifts to actually use them.

I think it is a great series and I am looking forward to the next sermons. So, how about it? What if you were the opposite gender?

I have never thought about it but I guess I would be kind to women in the harvest and if I could not make their job easier I would not make it harder.

If I were a man I think I would hold a balanced veiw and I would not run with preachers that crack jokes in the pulpit about ladies. I would try to be a godly kind person and a helper to the women that labor among us in the gospel.

It seems hard for me to think I have never considered that before...I will have to think a while..
