Jesus answered the pharisees and saducees in parables.

He declare to them that "the kingdom of God" is in their midst/heart and within their reach. He was speaking figuratively

How did you come to the conclusion that what Jesus Christ said, He meant figuratively?

When Jesus Christ spoke to His disciples of similar in John 15 vs 19, and then to God in John 17 vs 15 - 26 that we are in this world but we are not of this world, was Jesus Christ also speaking figuratively in those instances?,

Being the head of the family requires vision. Long term vision. So the man may not be the breadwinner but first he must be contributing his quota no matter how little and he must be long sighted to secure the family.

Unlike back in the day, protectingyour family is not about muscle anymore, it's brainpower.

realG101:
Frankly, you cannot compare a man's ego to a woman's. Me I don't even think woman have ego.

The urge to man up and earn your own living as opposed to waiting for someone to wife you and take care of you is one valid way to distinguish a man and woman in terms of ego. Largely, woman don't have much ego.

So it is very difficult for a man who can't provide in a marriage to be submissive. Most men will rather become toxic in the marriage or opt out.

However, note that equality does not suggest two captains on the ship. But the captain thing should be a fluid concept. It should not be a taboo for a woman to make critical decisions for the family, esp if she actually has a superior grasp of the situation at hand. Then she can be the captain at that material time. Not the man insisting his decision is final when his decision is not the best for the family.

Kobojunkie:
So what relevant criteria is this claimed leadership based on then?

U didn't answer my last question on marriage bt I will answer urs.


Biblcal and historical laws and principles which are still relevant for marriage today.

They are based on love, mutual respect and leadership role of the man in the home.

Who is John?

You claimed Jesus Christ's response to the pharisees was in figurative speech, and I wondered how you came to the conclusion that Jesus Christ only spoke figuratively to the Pharisees.

But in John 15 vs 19 we find Jesus Christ repeating the same exactly teaching He spoke to the Pharisees. And in [b]John 17, [/b]as Jesus Christ prayed to God, again we find the very same teaching.

@bolded is truly unbiased, sensible and objective!

Not some halfass dimwit like Winters23 positing that as long as a dullard has a deek, he's better than a PhD holder who is female. Such nonsense talk can only exist in the brains of Marlians Maniacs!

I've noticed that it is Nigerian men who are obsessed with marriage. Marriage is a huge deal to them. They are incomplete in the world when they are unmarried and suspect others are unmarried too. Hence it is their go-to topic. That, and sex—the state of use of a woman's vagina. These are their only life motivations.

It is only online the dregs will try and drag one to their level. People who would see you and bow will begin cussing and cursing at themselves to prove they can hate women to the max.

But then all of them, on topics where sense is required, sound like the kinds of dregs that UNICEF should be rescuing from their present state. Backward guttersnipe the lot of them. They are uncouth.

I thought you guys always puff your chests and brag you're making all the money, so there can't be equality.

If the woman is also making money then why can't that be a condition for equality??

Money is just a mere factor in this cases.

Only those with poor mentality see money as a criteria for being a head, leaders are not made based on net worth but rather capabilities.

The Natural abilities and capabilities of a man is superior to a woman and that's why a man is not equal to a woman.

This evening at my mom's house I saw something very funny 3 hens fight energetically that I even had to video some seconds of it, guess what, they were fighting over who would mate with the only available female hen who was just there lying down waiting for the victor, at last they got tired and they all took turns in mating with her, I was like that's the best thing to do na. LOL

Gee64:
I observed that the woman for whatever reasons always play the underdog in marriage. She is often regarded as a 'helper' playing almost a docile role in decision-making in the home.

Most people use religious precepts to relegate the rights of a woman to the background: as being the house-keeper and 'child-bearer'. But in modern times, many women play the role of 'provider' in the home, therefore forcing the man to also assist with household chores.

In modern times, Even in civilised climes, women now seek to either being independent parents or share same authority as the man in the home. But where the man does not feel comfortably with this, the result is divorce. I want to assume that this is the major cause of domestic violence in majority of homes.

Most women feel more comfortable being single parents than to submit to the egocentric excesses of the male folk.

What is your stand on this issue. I personally speak as a male.

Oh, it's 3 Roosters, not '3 hens'.
There's also nothing like "female hen" Biko!
Hen already implies a female domestic bird

Fela's mother took your fellow men(what they couldn't do on their own) to Britain to ask for our Independence, let that enter your skull today

The Boko Haram/bandit bullshit was created by men for your selfish reasons and greed, why will women fight for something you men refuse to logically mutually agree on because of power?

Out of about 34 men that fought for the independence of this country, you could only mention one woman, quite pathetic.

Fela's mother was part of the delegation and never lead any man nor men for Nigeria's independence.

In 1953, Anthony Enahoro moved the motion for Nigeria's independence and by 1957, the Eastern Nigeria (not lead by Fela's mother nor any woman) got their independence.



The Nigerian state was created by men and majority of the inventions and innovations in the world are done by men, why would a mere domestic appendage who barely contributed something in the development of the country and civilisation claim to be equal to her masters?


P.S Before you spew your rhetorics about Fela's mums participations in the independence of Nigeria, go read some history books or you can use Google.

If only you boys know how many husbands live in complete respect and fear of their wives wrath you will know that your claim about men always being the head is a joke.

Interact with real life married couples and see. Many married men cannot do anything without their wives permission because they fear her anger.

That's the reason men here insult you women all around, you talk too much, I am familiar with the word cock and not rooster but somehow I felt you would understand and be reasonable as I even had to tell you about a comic scene I saw that's nor related to the topic, instead you decided to pick out the errors and use it as a means to step on my ego.

Moreover for that part where you said I live with my parents, I find it funny though and I assume you are foolish because ASSU is on Strike and I have been at home now for months, moreover I pay everything for the house from rent to cable subscriptions except clothings for my younger ones, at this stage of my life I have no serious girlfriend so I spend all my money on my parental family and my personal investments, their encouragements and motivations took me this far so I made a personal obligation to spoil them.

I work and I am student, just so you know I didn't want to rent an apartment at my home because I have one at school and I can't chase all the women coming to me nor can I escape getting one pregnant but since I am at my parent's house they can't come and be forming madam of the house.

You got me at "step on my ego".

So correcting your error means your ego is in the mud since it's coming from a female abi?? So you are too big to accept simple correction because you're a "man"?? Wonders will never end.

You youths of nowadays have a lot to learn when it comes to life issues! Many of you are full of too much pride. Imagine being an undergraduate and you're this puffed up?? What exactly have you acheived that you can't be corrected?? Yet many of you drag your president or governors in the mud if they make the slightest mistake in public.

No wonder an elderly man wrote a beautiful thread, instead of y'all to pick sense from it, you're busy attacking him with insults.

FYI, For you to be an undergraduate by now, then by the time I finished my first degree, I'm sure you were still in your mother's womb!! You think everyone is a teenager here??

She's a woman and you still want her to have some balls. How do you marry balls and woman?

You can correct someone without mocking them, if you did it in a polite way like I was communicating with you earlier, instead you decided to bring toxicity into the conversation and act like you know better than me in a bid to massage your ego.

I may not be older than you but I am glad you see me as a teenager, I have no time to argue about age, it's not a criteria for living, I take it that way but I can tell you that circumstances didn't make me enter school at the time I wanted.

If I was the one mocking you now, I am sure you would have been raining insults on me now, somehow it's not all about how old you are but how reasonable and mature you can be.

I accept corrections if I see it as genuine and unlike yours, your saw the argument/debate as a means to mock me but I take it that way, if you can buttress your skin glow then what can I do, I want the best for you.

That a woman shares in decision-making doesn't make her the boss. Marriage is not an organisation. It is a union where both parties should be equal shareholders. Marriage is the only human institution where you have two heads giving moral instructions to their offspring and managing the affairs of the family on equal terms. That way, a harmonious relationship will be established.

have you ever seen a company with equal shareholders prosper?
