In the trailer the women are acting like men with masculine mannerisms.<br /><br />Or think of how the female lead in the recent Star Wars movie could literally do everything and do it well. Even defeating someone who has been using a light saber for years despite the fact that that's the first time she has actually wielded a light saber in combat. <br /><br />I haven't seen it, but I'm told that a similar thing is true in the recent Mad Max movie with the female character played by Charlize Theron.ANNOYED PINOYhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00714774340084597206noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6789188.post-19525259795927608442016-07-15T13:50:44.489-04:002016-07-15T13:50:44.489-04:00For those who don't know, a popular apologist ...For those who don't know, a popular apologist for Islam has left Islam and one of the reasons he gives is the second example I gave above of Islam teaching the permissibility of raping married female captives while their husband is still alive. His apostasy to Islam has been creating great waves in the Islamic and Christian dialogue/debate communities.<br /><br />Here's a link to his video <a href="https://youtu.be/DR7_YQ53lfI" rel="nofollow">Why I Left Islam</a> (https://youtu.be/DR7_YQ53lfI)ANNOYED PINOYhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00714774340084597206noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6789188.post-3579257337047401492016-07-15T13:42:36.943-04:002016-07-15T13:42:36.943-04:00One interesting thing about feminism is that while...One interesting thing about feminism is that while the stated goal is egalitarianism, it requires a fundamental recognition that men and women are different. Otherwise any comparison for sake of making equal is arbitrary.<br /><br />Another interesting thing about feminism is that making women equal to men requires women adopting male characteristics as though they were more desirable than female characteristics. However, as you point out, this especially doesn't work when it highlights the core difference between men and women.Jim Pembertonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01446388434272680014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6789188.post-19313778444937126602016-07-15T13:38:47.307-04:002016-07-15T13:38:47.307-04:0010 “When you go out to war against your enemies, a...10 “When you go out to war against your enemies, and the Lord your God gives them into your hand and you take them captive, 11 and you see among the captives a beautiful woman, and you desire to take her to be your <b>wife</b>, 12 and you bring her home to your house, she shall shave her head and pare her nails. 13 And she shall take off the clothes in which she was captured and shall remain in your house <b>and lament her father and her mother a full month</b>. After that you may go in to her and be her husband, and she shall be <b>your wife</b>. 14 But if you no longer delight in her, <b>you shall let her go where she wants. But you shall not sell her for money, nor shall you treat her as a slave, since you have humiliated her.</b>- Deut. 21:10-14 ESV [bold added by me]<br /><br />Seems very merciful. Unlike the temporary marriages in Islam that <a href="https://youtu.be/_GUGsSiinuY" rel="nofollow">in effect was prostitution</a> OR <a href="https://youtu.be/2EhNCAP3cz0" rel="nofollow">the rape of captured married women whose husbands are still alive</a>.ANNOYED PINOYhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00714774340084597206noreply@blogger.com
