I hope the spirit it was written in comes across differently than Mr. Wells and his vendetta.Arthur Sidohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03848508095612688493noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12009297.post-70984565740282438342011-05-18T12:58:09.865-07:002011-05-18T12:58:09.865-07:00Lewis is dealing with very real abuses within cert...Lewis is dealing with very real abuses within certain sections of Christianity.<br /><br />As a former homeschooler who loved homeschooling and never wanted to get out of is, I was still troubled by the hostile take-over that I observed the neo-patriarchy movement actively engaged in at homeschool conventions and elsewhere.<br /><br />However men describe patriarchy or whatever they believe that it is, what Lewis is addressing needs to be addressed because the abuses are very real, occuring today, and should not be ignored.Mara Reidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16385458933795539928noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12009297.post-46123257008443237322011-05-17T19:38:49.336-07:002011-05-17T19:38:49.336-07:00I was kidding Steve, I have never heard of this gu...I was kidding Steve, I have never heard of this guy although I am guessing he is not subscribing to my posts!Arthur Sidohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03848508095612688493noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12009297.post-48574407428808689432011-05-17T18:12:02.694-07:002011-05-17T18:12:02.694-07:00Can it be said that all these issues can be both s...Can it be said that all these issues can be both supported and rejected with spiritual conviction and God's Word? <br />Then Mr Wells needs to do a little reading in Rom. 14 & 15 about not looking down, judging, refusing relationship, those for whom Christ died. God is the one who makes us stand, not whether we have exactly the right position on patriarchy, dating, etc. If a believer claims to be "strong" and not weak, then the greater burden rests on him to take the mature ground. This passage is very powerful in these regards.Tim Ahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09099983903222184138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12009297.post-24680959294451924472011-05-17T00:17:33.998-07:002011-05-17T00:17:33.998-07:00Hey, Arthur, thanks for the comment.

I'm afraid I wasn't able to pay close enough attention to your posts and should probably go back and read them again someday. Is he talking about you? I'm not going to moderate a feud, here, so maybe I should back off! ;)Steve Scotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10297044571819912511noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12009297.post-59476804064260367802011-05-16T19:20:42.632-07:002011-05-16T19:20:42.632-07:00Geez, I am a homeschooling, patriarchal father of ...Geez, I am a homeschooling, patriarchal father of eight who believes in courtship.
