not in christianity, never mentioned in the OT even though some say judaism talks about it. its in isalm and hinduism though or are you talking about the TV show? Christ was prophesied many times in the OT. OT concealed. NT revealed NT fullfillment of Christ prophecy Typolgy- NT is typology for OT. End of time typology happening now Jesus is returning Sabmyk has woken up ARe they connected? Not any more. Someone cut the train of thought.

Eleven members of Republican Rep. Adam Kinzinger's family sent him a vitriolic letter accusing him of being a member of the "devil's army" in light of his criticism of then-President Donald Trump after the January 6 insurrection, The New York Times reported Monday. "Oh my, what a disappointment you are to us and to God!" they wrote to the Illinois Republican, according to a copy of the letter obtained by the paper, rebuking his "horrible, rude accusations of President Trump."amp.cnn.com/cnn/2021/02/15/politics/kinzinger-impeachment-family-letter/index.html

Jeep pulled this Super Bowl ad after Bruce Springsteen was charged with a DUI.
Springsteen, a prominent Trump critic, starred in a high profile advertisement that aired during the Super Bowl that urged Americans to reach out to those who think differently from them. The ad was also criticized for the Christian Nationalism symbology inside the church.
I was at that church last year. It's out in the middle of nowhere and I was the only one there. It sits in a small park. The church door was locked. Next to the church is a large chicken barn. It's the only church I have seen that is covered in flies. I understand why flies like a large chicken bard but could never figure out why the flied also like this small white church. If you decide to go there, you will be disappointed.

I found this video by a young "Muslim girl" interesting. She explains her faith journey.
I wasn't aware of the phrase "Revert to a Muslim".
She uses the same arguments that Christians do use to justify her belief. (god of the gaps, irreducible complexity, first mover argument), she just has a different answer. It's also interesting to see how culture determines which god you belive in.

Every month Martín’s parents took a trip to see Grandma and came home on the same train the next day. One day the child said to his parents: ′′I'm already grown up. Can I go to my grandma's alone?" After a brief discussion, his parents accepted. They stood with him as he waited for the train to exit. They said goodbye to their son and gave him some tips through the window. Martin repeated to them: ′′I know. I've been told this more than a thousand times." As the train was about to leave, his father murmured in his ear: ′′Son if you feel bad or insecure, this is for you!" And he put something in his pocket. Now Martin was alone, sitting on the train as he had wanted, without his parents for the first time. He was admiring the landscape out the window. Around him some unknowns pushed themselves in. They made a lot of noise. They got in and out of the train car. The conductor made some comments about him being alone. One person looked at him with eyes of sadness. Martin was feeling more uneasy with every minute that passed. And now he was scared. He felt cornered and alone. He put his head down, and with tears in his eyes, He remembered his dad had Put something in his pocket. Trembling, he searched for what his father had given him. Upon finding the piece of paper he read it: ′′Son, I'm in the last train car!". That's how life is, We must let our kids go We must let them try new things. But we always like to be In the last car, watching, in case they are afraid or in case they find obstacles and don’t know what to do. We want to be close to them. as long as we are still alive. (Adapted from Unknown author)

Found this interesting and very true.
Men ask why women are so pissed off, even guys with wives and daughters. Jackson Katz, a prominent social researcher, illustrates why. He's done it with hundreds of audiences:
"I draw a line down the middle of a chalkboard, sketching a male symbol on one side and a female symbol on the other. Then I ask just the men: What steps do you guys take, on a daily basis, to prevent yourselves from being sexually assaulted? At first there is a kind of awkward silence as the men try to figure out if they've been asked a trick question. The silence gives way to a smattering of nervous laughter. Occasionally, a young a guy will raise his hand and say, 'I stay out of prison.' This is typically followed by another moment of laughter, before someone finally raises his hand and soberly states, 'Nothing. I don't think about it.'
Then I ask the women the same question. What steps do you take on a daily basis to prevent yourselves from being sexually assaulted? Women throughout the audience immediately start raising their hands. As the men sit in stunned silence, the women recount safety precautions they take as part of their daily routine.
Hold my keys as a potential weapon. Look in the back seat of the car before getting in. Carry a cell phone. Don't go jogging at night. Lock all the windows when I sleep, even on hot summer nights. Be careful not to drink too much. Don't put my drink down and come back to it; make sure I see it being poured. Own a big dog. Carry Mace or pepper spray. Have an unlisted phone number. Have a man's voice on my answering machine. Park in well-lit areas. Don't use parking garages. Don't get on elevators with only one man, or with a group of men. Vary my route home from work. Watch what I wear. Don't use highway rest areas. Use a home alarm system. Don't wear headphones when jogging. Avoid forests or wooded areas, even in the daytime. Don't take a first-floor apartment. Go out in groups. Own a firearm. Meet men on first dates in public places. Make sure to have a car or cab fare. Don't make eye contact with men on the street. Make assertive eye contact with men on the street.”

Gender equality, besides being a fundamental human right, is essential to achieve peaceful societies, with full human potential and sustainable development. Moreover, it has been shown that empowering women spurs productivity and economic growth.
Men who adhere to rigid, sexist stereotypes of how to be a man are more likely to use and tolerate violence against women.
On the other hand, men with more flexible, gender-equitable ideas about manhood are more likely to treat women with respect. And promoting healthy, more flexible models of masculinity is an important way to end domestic and sexual violence.
It is Men who need to change their attitude. Misogyny is evil, no place for it in modern society. An unsavoury relic of the past.

Unfortunately misogyny has been wrongly promoted by Church policy in the suppression of Woman. Time for Woman Overseers.

I rest my case. Attitude is self evident.
You were always going to have Male supremacy in the Churches, the die was cast, when Men wrote the Bible.

There is such a thing as Common Sense. We should use that to mend our ways, not adhere to information that is 6000 years out of date.
Plus the Garden story is Mythology, not sound instruction to follow.

The common sense you were given was from the Lord...scripture with good understanding is timeless in its wisdom...well you either have faith or you don't...

Humanism makes more sense. That is common sense in practice.
