You misunderstand, FP. I don't look in the sky. The kingdom of God is a present, spiritual reality. Heaven is here, so I do not trouble about how to get there.

"Once, on being asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God would come, Jesus replied, “The coming of the kingdom of God is not something that can be observed, nor will people say, ‘Here it is,’ or ‘There it is,’ because the kingdom of God is in your midst.”[c] (Luke 17:20-21 NIV)
c. Luke 17:21 Or is within you

Man created god thus god is created in man's image. As man's image changes throughout the centuries god's image conforms with it. As human societies grow larger and more complex so to do the tenants of any particular faith

How is it then that most of the mainstream religions still deny women equality?


From what you say the Gods we are constantly creating, and I agree that that is how it works, are not conforming with our so called civilized society. Why are our men not civilized enough to insure equality for women?

Equality is an inner estate, FP.

I think I understand and have been saying to some that if they cannot see God everywhere, then they will never find him anywhere.


The problem with calling what we have heaven, is that women do not get their share of the wonders here.


Oppression in heaven from men towards women. Who knew?

Not if you are a woman making 30% less than a man for the same work.


Clichés are nice but are often just garbage or un-workable rhetoric.

I am a woman living on the earth at this time and I am neither wonder-deprived nor oppressed. It is impossible for men to enslave the soul.

If in my spirit, I am equal, FP, no employer can make me otherwise.

Good for you. Now think of your sisters, daughters and mothers who are oppressed.


Good morals are usually centered on others and not self-centered.

I am thinking about my sisters, daughters, mothers and other women who feel oppressed, FP. More than thinking, I am doing. I am here on this forum to present another perspective for women to consider. She who has ears, let her hear.
