NYT: Modern Women are Unhappy « owen strachan
Is it any wonder that one of the queens of feminism, Maureen Dowd rues the fact that feminism is not working. I think the article is analyzed well. Feminism does not work because it has a failed view of authority.
Now I know what you are thinking, I am a man and I love for my wife to be submissive. But I too, have to submit… to my God, my boss, my pastor and even my worship leader! These are just some of the authorities I to which I must submit, as long as they do not cause me to commit sin, I must obey. Even if I think they are wrong, I still must submit!
Submission, I think, is never quite mastered. This is only for the fact that when you submit, you put away your pride! Yikes, that will hurt!
We all look at authority wrong. Those that have authority should never use it to be severe task masters or cause others to sin. Today, authority is being abused as an opportunity to USE and OWN people! That is incorrect In God’s economy authority is responsibility! Practically and rightfully exercised, authority figures know they will give answer for their use of that authority.
Authority and submission to it is meant to be a blessing. The one in authority, by properly exercising it, covers the ones who submit! This covering is meant to be a blessing! In other words, the person in charge protects those who submit to them!
It is amazing when we stray from God ordained authority, how things do not work. God’s plan is simple, obedience, that is the hard lesson we have to learn temporally.
Read Owen’s last paragraph, it says it all!
