You attempt to divert, you fail, so what else is new?

You made a direct response attacking the questioner and avoided his question.

Feminists can be dummies, too. provis99 Jan 2012 #1
And provis99, you've convinced me. DU'ers can be bigots too. Swamp Lover Jan 2012 #2

Intelligent people have been religious for all of human history, all over the world. kwassa Feb 2012 #14
Some intelligent people aren't religious Thats my opinion Feb 2012 #68
To do so, she must pretend that much of Paul's teachings are not in the faith Bluenorthwest Jan 2012 #3
Some need to decide whether they are Paulists or Christians. Kurmudgeon Jan 2012 #5
No True Scotsman. provis99 Jan 2012 #6
Knee jerk response. Kurmudgeon Feb 2012 #31
brilliant display of logic. provis99 Feb 2012 #38
Of course they can! Kurmudgeon Jan 2012 #4
the mistake is confusing "christian" with "religious" pnwest Jan 2012 #7
The vast majority of religion, and the vast majority of Christian churches, darkstar3 Jan 2012 #8
I've never assumed that. Swamp Lover Feb 2012 #10
I don't find your contributions here interesting. QED. darkstar3 Feb 2012 #12
Why did you avoid his question? kwassa Feb 2012 #13
Did you happen to miss darkstar3 Feb 2012 #15
Attack the messenger rather than deal with his message. kwassa Feb 2012 #17
Wrong. Again you ignore that it was a direct response to the question at hand. darkstar3 Feb 2012 #18
I ignore nothing. kwassa Feb 2012 #24
Just what was the question? cleanhippie Feb 2012 #27
Contradiction in itself does not constitute an argument. darkstar3 Feb 2012 #35

Amazing how some presume to think they know how everyone of an organization or group thinks. Kurmudgeon Feb 2012 #32
Be thankful for the increasing number that do nt Thats my opinion Feb 2012 #69
Let's be thankful for increasing number that do nt Thats my opinion Feb 2012 #70
Jesus Christ said men are the head of women, so a feminist Christians have ZombieHorde Feb 2012 #11
What exactly are you trying to quote? struggle4progress Feb 2012 #20
I am trying to quote the Christian Holy Bible. ZombieHorde Feb 2012 #21
This is Paul, not Jesus, who says this. And, maybe not Paul, either. kwassa Feb 2012 #25
So parts of the bible aren't what many people think they are? cleanhippie Feb 2012 #28
No. kwassa Feb 2012 #39
Yes. cleanhippie Feb 2012 #42
so, you have the power to change my answer to whatever you think it should be? kwassa Feb 2012 #46
I have the power to recognize when someone is being obtuse cleanhippie Feb 2012 #48
Like I said, pick and choose. No part of the Christian Holy Bible was written by Jesus Christ. nt ZombieHorde Feb 2012 #30
Of course not. No one said that Jesus wrote it. kwassa Feb 2012 #40
No, that was Paul. Another reason why I make distinction between Paulists and Christians. Kurmudgeon Feb 2012 #33
No book in the Christian Holy Bible is attributed to Jesus. ZombieHorde Feb 2012 #34
This argument you are making doesn't make much sense. kwassa Feb 2012 #41
"Pick and choose" wasn't an argument; it was an observation. ZombieHorde Feb 2012 #45
It's called a rational approch to literary criticism nt Thats my opinion Feb 2012 #71
Wouldn't a rational approach consider all the miracles and supernatural parts metaphors? ZombieHorde Feb 2012 #73
Which means you engage in fallacy. darkstar3 Feb 2012 #36
Most of the female Christian clergy I know are quite feminist. kwassa Feb 2012 #16
I'm trying to remember a saying...how does it go... darkstar3 Feb 2012 #19
and many thousands of exceptions to this one ... kwassa Feb 2012 #22
Agree cbayer Feb 2012 #23
"thousands of exceptions"...all of them Episcopal, I'm sure. darkstar3 Feb 2012 #37

See, now you're just amusing me. darkstar3 Feb 2012 #47
I'm glad you are amused by being wrong. It is big of you. kwassa Feb 2012 #49
There are so many things wrong with your post that it's hard to know where to begin. darkstar3 Feb 2012 #50
It is too bad you can't point out what is wrong. kwassa Feb 2012 #61
In response: darkstar3 Feb 2012 #63
What? Many of those denominations ordain women ButterflyBlood Feb 2012 #51
Good for them. That doesn't mean those denominations treat women equally. darkstar3 Feb 2012 #52
In what way do they not? ButterflyBlood Feb 2012 #54
Go read the wiki post, darkstar3 Feb 2012 #56
Well let's look at your checklist in my church ButterflyBlood Feb 2012 #59
You really think it was a "checklist"? darkstar3 Feb 2012 #60
You are wrong once again. kwassa Feb 2012 #62
When I was younger, women's church groups tended to focus on one of two things, sometimes both Nikia Feb 2012 #67
Facts trump moving goal posts. rug Feb 2012 #53
Yes they do. Ordination is not equality. Switching to ordination was moving the goal posts. darkstar3 Feb 2012 #57
I suspect your complaint is not really about equality. rug Feb 2012 #58
Ordination is the most powerful position in a church. It is equality. kwassa Feb 2012 #64
That's not what you said a few minutes ago. darkstar3 Feb 2012 #65
Are you certain? Donald Ian Rankin Feb 2012 #66
I son't know where you got your list from, Thats my opinion Feb 2012 #72
An "insider" is "always a better source than an outsider." darkstar3 Feb 2012 #74
