I'm puzzled. You self-describe as a "Shameless Harlot". I'm not sure how literally I should take that, but what if some women don't want your/that lifestyle?
Are they wrong to be industrious, God-fearing, and family-oriented?
What was it about the non-denoms that turned you off?
Well people do what they want to do some people want to be god fearing people, some people don't. Most of the women in my generation don't want to settle down and have a family or even go to church so pretty much, the ones who do fear god and want to settle down is getting kinda hard to find to be honest.
IMO, women in Western cultures have made some serious mistakes with regard to men that have had repercussions on both sexes.
Now, I'm not saying that men haven't made mistakes, too. But with regard to marriage, by opening the doors to pre-marital sex so to speak, women screwed themselves...um...you know what I mean.
(the next dozen or so posts ought to be interesting)

(out of context; a slight deviation from the topic in response to a phrase)
Why do you fear your god? Is that why you cannot see the truth, for your fear of god? There is no god, so forget your fears and step into the light.
"Fear of the Lord" encompasses much more than being afraid.
I can't link to good articles until my 30 days are up, but you can Google that phrase. Add the word "Catholic" to your search for a better selection of articles.

I can't have this discussion with you. Not today. I have discussed my past experiences in some places on the forum in the past.
What I can say is that I never look down on a woman for making her own choices about how she wishes to live her life. I don't think I said anything offensive about your wife. I simply said you should take good care of her and be kind to her.
No, no...I didn't take your post as negative in any way. And I will try to follow your advice...I think I married better than she did.
I only asked because it looked like you were about to make a point about Pr. 31 until I said I married one. Then you kinda shut down.
Maybe more later?

How far down that road though ? Take kids to church on Sunday, but stay home if menstruating ? Observe dietary law ? Keep mouth shut in church ?
Pope John Paul II wrote "On the Dignity and Vocation of Women". It's Latin title is MULIERIS DIGNITATEM, and you can find it on the vatican.va website or simply Google it.
The Catholic Church (and Jesus, of course) revolutionized the way that women are viewed in our society. Look at Islam if you want to see where things were before.
