Comments on: Judge Okays School Ban On Female Teachers
Female Professor's Lawsuit Dismissed Based On School's 1st Amendment Religious Rights
- I''''ll have to disagree with you here, hungry.
Modern dogma was invented by very savy individuals.
"Primitive" man believed in various Gods - for rain, of the sea, of love, etc.
There was no room for manipulation of the masses in ancient dogmas.
Modern dogmas were invented with a promise of eternity as a means of extracting wealth and power from the masses.

I agree that "modern" dogma is used to extract power and wealth from the masses, but primitive people have been following the teachings of "god" for at least two thousand years, and they''ve always used it as a way to keep people in line with what they wanted them to believe.
I don''t dispute that SOME primitive people did believe in multiple gods, (American indians, Greeks, Romans, etc.), but the ones that invented "god" and wrote the original christian bible, were hardly savvy intelligent individuals. - Reply to this comment
- cfin5, I''m glad you are a responsible father and husband but my point is that a family with a mother and father in traditional roles does not a perfect family make. I feel like my family is great the way it is and a man would not be an improvement...winning the lottery would be an improvement. Even when a family does have a mother and father in tradtional roles, that could change at any time with the death of either one and then "job titles" would change too.

- Secondly, NO WHERE in the US Constitution, is "god" mentioned - not even once.

Precisely - but don''t tell that to a bible banger. Their reality isn''t based on little things like facts, evidence or independent thought. It''s all wrote dogma with their bigotries and hatreds blended in for good measure. It''s a huge security blanket for them... threaten that, and you either start donating to televangelists, become a jihadist, or call everyone that doesn''t fit your tiny vision of the universe a "tree hugger" or a "liberal" or a "hippie" because it reinforces your own personal view of your superiority.
Common, predictable, and oh so very despicable. - Reply to this comment
- Sure there is a God. We have the Jesus God and we have the Father the son and the Holy Ghost. We have lots of prophets too. But most important is the one God that rules supreme over all the other gods. The monkey god.
Hail to the monkey god ruler of all man kind. Could someone please past the bananas.
Well the monkey god makes as much sense as all this other fairy tale bull sh*t. - Reply to this comment
- Based on a verse in 1st Timothy in which the Apostle Paul says, "I permit no woman to teach or have authority over a man."
This could very well be mistaken for a line used by Archie Bunker. For all we know the Apostle Paul, was smoking weed when he said this. The idea man and woman are to strive for is to make each generation better than the one before. This requires us to move on, progress as a society, and evolve from the ancient to the new. If and when there are no *** left from these murdering preaches, women will be returned to their place from the writings in a book, that were collected during an era when men wore toga''s and would sit in the sun, fasting until they received a divine image or message. You ought to try it sometimes it beats drugs, you don''t break the law, you loose weight and have a really wild trip. - Reply to this comment
- OK. That''s it. I don''t want to hear another word, another letter, coming out of the mouth of Islam bashers about how deficient Muslims are and all that BS.
This people keep talking as if Muslims don''t have disagreements and are supposed to be some kind of monolithic monster.
But as you can see EVERYONE in the world have disagreements.
Besides, even without the case of this good female college professor 25% of US women who end up in Emergency Rooms end up there due to injuries inflicted on them by their male relatives or companions.
So, again, not a word from J Freaks, OK? - Reply to this comment
- First and foremost, "god" does not exist - he is a myth-illogical creation created by incestuous, cattle sacrificing, drunk, primitives.

- Once again bigoted Bible bangers prove that religion is the basis for most of the hate and death in the world.

- However to infringe on the faith of anyone, anyone at all, especially when there is written precedent for the move the institution made, is a travesty against the freedoms granted us by GOD. Everyone wants to scream about the discrimination factor, but I can say that if I were her, I would have chosen another institution from the get-go. She is obviously free to do that.
Everyone must remember that we get our freedom from the fact that we are human, creations of God (as mentioned in our Constitution), not because the government of the United States of America says we are free.

Secondly, NO WHERE in the US Constitution, is "god" mentioned - not even once.
Third, "god" doesn''t grant freedom or liberty - The US constitution does. "God" decrees that you live under his rules and authority, and NO WHERE in the bible does he "give" you freedoms or liberties to do as you please.
Fourth, there is no "written precedent" as you claim - at least it isn''t mentioned in this article.
Fifth, she was hired BEFORE the president that tried to fire her. If she was good enough to be hired in the first place, then why wasn''t she good enough to be kept on? Did she do something related to job performance, or is this just discrimination? - Reply to this comment
- As far as the female professor not receiving tenure at the Theology School because a bunch of men don''t believe women should teach their kind...I think it''s a crock. Why was she hired in the first place? A bunch of holier-than-thou men didn''t want her to have tenure so they came up with this lame excuse. She should appeal and win!
