I responded with:
Membership is voluntary. The real question is, how good are the sandwiches they make?
and
The men in the cult are failing spectacularly at oppression if one of their handmaids gets nominated for the Supreme Court.
I'm trying to make one of his rabid friend's head explode. I'm a bad man. :mrgreen:

My daughter in law PM'ed me:
It’s not the men’s fault! She probably asked her husband, “Hey, do you care if I get sworn into the Supreme Court?” And he tried really hard to say, “No, you have too many toilets to clean!”, but his mouth was full of sandwich and he couldn’t get the words out 😥
I now love her even more. :lol:
Amazing that they go after Catholics like this but completely ignore the anti-feminist nature of Islam, which has FAR MORE relation to the Handmaids Tale...

Everywhere today I'm seeing memes talking about "subservience" of women being called for in this and other orthodox views of family and marriage.

"Has God not said..." Then goes on to say something similar but different from what God said

The word is "hupotasso", lit to "place oneself (voluntarily) under" a higher purpose or to accept as a higher authority. Emphasis on voluntary

Commonly translated to English as "submit". Not in the MMA sort of submission way though. One of the most common contempory Greek usages is for enlisting in the military as a private citizen might do. Or as an indentured servant might at the end of required service, to choose to stay on in the service of that household, to "hupotasso", submit voluntarily and become a bond servant -- bound by choice to that house and master.

Has anybody noticed all the Bernie bros going on about how "Bernie would have won" after the debate?

He couldn't beat a dementia patient, and they think he could have beaten Trump?! :?
