No, submission is to my husband, not to any male that exists.

Daniel, your question supposes a superior intelligence of women. It's typical liberal psychobabble. The implication is not that women are equal or that SOME women are smarter than some men - it is that all women are smarter than all men.

This worldview is pushed in every public school system in America, so I am not surprised that you - a liberal NEA member - would espouse it. It is also played out in media at every level of worldview ministry. Males are always portrayed as stupid (especially white middle-aged males), lazy and fat while women are always portrayed as super-intelligent, super-strong, and hyper-worker bees. This all leads to a feminization of the American male.

Add to this the Hollywood worldview that kids are soooo much smarter than their parents and that parents need to ask their kid's permission to enter their room and you have a toxic cocktail of preflood Noahic perversion.

I married my wife in part because she was intelligent.

As to the church leadership question.... Pentecostals have always been much more accepting of women in ministry than most denominations. Try getting a perspective from the two largest denoms in the US/World - Catholic and SBC.

C'mon, Dan, give it a rest, already.

Any intelligent, God fearing man respects and encourages an intelligent woman's contribution to whatever the activity might be.

The men who do not are not worthy of discussion.

End of discussion, IMO.

Huh? You're limiting the post you made and the question you asked to a discussion forum? I thought you were referring to a much larger scope than this forum. Goodness!

You think men on this forum are intimidated by intelligent women?!

Mais non, monsieur! Absolutely not.
