“When God created the world with all its filaments, he could rest, when God created the animals, he could rest, when God created man, he was still able to rest, but when God created woman, neither God, nor man, nor even the woman herself has rested” anonymous.

We need not go into the obvious biblical account of creation, however, we must note that Adam was in that garden all the while without for one minute thinking of plucking that fruit not to talk of eating it, but when the “flesh of my flesh, bone of my bone gave him a piece, all his sense of loyalty and obedience to God flew with the wind, without a moments thought or hesitation, he ate from it. The consequences are all too obvious.

If you think that, that was the end you are wrong. Let’s visit the bible again.

Genesis 6:1-4 has another story. Chapter 1 starts in an interesting way. “…, and girls were born”. You may wonder if the birth of girls was bad, but if you read on you will find out that even Angel looked down and couldn’t resist, they fell. It got to a point, (Gen 6:6) God was sorry that he had made them (mankind) and put them on the earth.

David was described as a “man after God’s heart”, such a singular honour, but what brought him down? You guessed right, Uriah’s wife. He set him up and got him killed. Solomon, his son, the wisest man on earth, did all his wisdom save him? No, he sank even deeper than his father.

Look at Samson, a strong man, killed a Lion with his bare hand, (Judge 14). He fell twice to the wiles of a woman. Once, to get out of him the solution to a riddle and secondly, to get the secret of his strength. We know how he eventually ended up.

Herod had simply put John the Baptist in prison and still tolerated him without killing him. Someone convinced him to terminate him.

Question: Who asked Herod to behead John the Baptist (100 Marks)

OK, you could say those are all biblical stories, ok I admit you are right, but Julius Caesar forgot about Rome and was totally enslaved by the siren, Cleopatra. Mac Anthony, his best friend was enslaved by the same woman after his death. Man never learns.

The Trojan War, the battle at troy between France and Athens had a woman (Helen) as the cause of the war.

Napoleon eventually lost his war because of his constant distraction with the thoughts of Josephine.

Bill Clinton almost got impeached because Monica Lewinsky was somewhere around. Sani Abacha (one time Nigerian President) had been adopted as the sole presidential aspirant of the five political parties available, but his lust or love for woman ended that dream.

Do you know that even Jesus was almost robed into women scandal (Da Vinci Code)? Who knows, this so called war against terrorism may even have a woman undertone.

Ask pastors, priests, bishops, the rich, top politicians, brilliant students, producers, actors, artist, comedians and other influential people, including yourself, the greatest challenges they face you will find out that women have a top priority. They have a good way of sniffing out the phone numbers of these people and are never shy of making the calls.

Think for a moment, how many times women or a woman has prevented you from doing or going somewhere important for the simple reason that she wants to feel important.

Stop and think again for a moment, why we really want to have sleek cars, well furnished apartments, flashy clothes, phones and why we have the urge to make money and more money, we will soon find out that it is either we want/ hope to impress or satisfy some lady, somewhere even if it is our mother.

Do you think that if a man was sure that he could get any woman of his choice without those things or better still if there was no woman at all that he would still work as hard?

You need to be in an environment where they are only guys, maybe in a hostel to understand how simple their lives can be, you will admire their communal life, their high sense of humour and teasing without offence. Introduce one women or women and notice the sharp change in their behaviour and attitude, pretence will start, the once up on a time interesting jokes and teasing will turn to insults, the tension will be obvious. Good friends will become sworn enemies, of course, they will chose another good reason or excuse for the quarrel, the truth is, if the ladies weren’t involved, they would not have quarrelled.

Take another scenario, a parent sell all he has to set up his first son, he has nothing left and prays to God to bless what he has done. God answer him, his son begins to do well. He suddenly remembers that he is old enough to get married, a woman from nowhere comes into the picture, not knowing how much sacrifice some people had to go through to put him where he is. The minute she feels secured she begins to complain that he is sending too much money home, when other issues are left unaddressed. The question is, would she have married him if those people had not made those sacrifices? The funnies thing is that the other pressing issues may just be her clothes, jewelries, gold or even her hair.

Please, do not get me wrong, the stories of women have not all been tales of wow, Deborah and Esther were used at various time to liberate Israel; Mary was an instrument for saving the world. Others exist. Women have being known to use their instinct to good effects. They are usually more sensitive to the plight of others and more tolerant.

However, man will continue to fall for the wiles of the ladies, man will never learn, man will continue to either slowdown or abort his dreams because of women. After all, they are “necessary evil” that we must live with.

With all these things, do u think God would alter his original plan even if he finds out that it is not good for man to be alone.
