It Ain't Right

Posted by moonbeamsnowflake on September 10, 2008 at 11:00 AM

You know how you just know some things aren't right? You don't have to be told; you just know. Like, you just know it isn't right to slap somebody or pull somebody's hair, and you just know it isn't right to take somebody else's toy. For a long time my two-year-old grandson has been able to start to do something he knows isn't right and he'll turn around and look at me and shake his head no.

Well, that's how I feel about a woman being governor or president. Even if I couldn't find a biblical principle (and I can) that would tell me it's wrong, I just know. I just know it's not right for a woman to make a Mr. Mom out of her husband. I just know it's not right for him to be a helper meet for her. I just know it isn't right for her to be the one in the family who is known in the gates as she sits with the elders.

It ain't right. It ain't right. It ain't right. It's a perversion of God's plan for man, and it just ain't right.

But some will say it's right even in the face of all the Bible says about the roles of men and women and then turn around and preach that gambling will send a person to hell. Why? Because covetousness is a sin. Covetousness is a sin, so gambling is a sin. But God's order is God, Christ, man, woman; women are not to usurp authority over men; and women are to be keepers at home, etc., etc., etc. And yet it's okay for a woman to rule the country? It totally blows my mind.
