Christian marriage in 2015

Christian marriage in 2015
After reading Cecelia's "religious rules that bother you the most", godzilla's "Christians and reproduction" and jenny1972's Christian fundamentalists plot against the Constitution" among other threads, I found more current articles about Christian marriage values.  

These are popular websites . . . even among moderate, liberal, mega-church going American xtians today.  

The Biblical Gender roles website has a large following.  Here is a very recent article about the Christian way for a husband to discipline his wife.  This is not satire, folks, they are absolutely serious.    7 ways to discipline your wife

An article that has, thankfully, seen SOME backlash is by the same guy, Larry Solomon, on the same website.  He argues FOR marital rape.
(I'm posting a critical reaction piece instead of the original, because I like the points it makes.)  In America, marital rape was made illegal in 1993.  
wives have no right to say no


-- I just thought that I would post these as more examples of why religion is sick.  The American extremist evangelicals are dangerous - and they are politically active.

Funny, reading this is like listening to Muslim fundamentalists.

Who the Christian right-wing hate, and the faux-liberal left love. Irony.

"Ironically like the nativist far-Right, which despises multiculturalism, but benefits from its ideas of difference to scapegoat the other and to promote its own white identity politics; these postmodernists, leftists, feminists and liberals also use multiculturalism, to side with the oppressor, by demanding respect and tolerance for oppression characterised as 'difference', no matter how intolerable."

Since there are no marriages in the golden cube this won't be a problem.

What the hell man?

Geez. What an absolute prick. Using an ancient book to justify having an unequal relationship where he calls all the shots is pathetic. I hope no women with any self respect would marry anyone with this mindset.

Sadly, the bible does support this kind of crap. Which is why the oral myths that it is anything to do with god's word are harmful.

If Christians believed in biblical marriage then the guys would marry their dead brother's wife.

According to the bible - there's no such thing as marital rape, since the woman doesn't have the right to say "no"; and there are great many christians, who ascribe to that view. After all, if god wanted women to decide on any aspect of their sexual lives - he'd have created them physically stronger and bigger than men. Might makes right, since we are obviously supposed to live by standards of morality of primitive tribal goat-herders, which they in turn inherited from the cave-men.

This is why I'm a misanthrope.

Um, no - - not for most of these websites and groups.  They are absolutely serious.
