[Vision2020] what the Bible really teaches (was DouglasWilsononwomen)

[joekc at adelphia.net]

AD,

If Michael is to busy, I'd be happy to discuss the problem of evil with you. I could take Michael's side pretty well, I think. I agree with Michael that the problem of evil does not provide a good reason for believing that God does not exist. One area of disagreement between Michael and I, though, might be that I don't think the issue of induction is relevant here. So I doubt that I could pick up where the two of you left off.

Maybe we could talk about it over coffee, and invite Ted M. and anyone else who might be interested. I ran this idea by Michael but since he is about to begin grad school in the joint program at UI/WSU he thought it would be best if he attended to those duties instead. Being a professor in that program, I had to agree. (Not that our discussions would be less philosophical, of course, but his schedule is currently focused on other issues.)

Evil over coffee! Now that sounds like fun!

Best, Joe

In your criticism of unbiblical patriarchy I don't think I recall you referencing any natural distinctions that might exist between men and women-or more concretely, between a man and a woman (even after the amazing reversing effects of the Incarnation). Bearing children is clearly a 'role' that I'm not very good at (given my particular tubing).  I wouldn't want to take child birth on as a career. So even though there is no longer male or female, it seems that there is some sort of distinction between male and female.  With that in mind, I'm hoping you would add a bit more to your criticism or offer a few helpful qualifications.
