What about the guys who left and made those girls single mothers?

Your name seems apt. You take perverse delight in cutting things to ribbons.
By catering to the evil women and making excuses for them doing high evil and then normalizing it and making it a mindcrime to support the good and traditional way of what is clearly good and true, and simping for them, you did not do them any services, but destroyed the men and made them evil too. Therefore are they a society of bastards, wicked, incontinent, and fierce against God.

Because putting people down is so much fun! Bonus fun if you can put a religious spin on it.
Don't worry, Satan's support troops the simps and beta males will support them and lift them up on their shoulders and parade them in pride.

It is the single mothers specifically which are the shieldmaidens of Satan, for they are the spiritual defenders of every single thing that is wicked.
Now I can't help but be curious...

How many people here on this site were born of or raised by single mothers whom they would say is a "shieldmaiden of Satan" and a "spiritual defender of every single thing that is wicked"?

In case anyone was curious, I think my parents were married about 5 years before they got me? (I'd have to ask to refresh my memory.)

But I was adopted, partially because they had been waiting for what they felt was a very long time for a child.

However, it's said that I was found abandoned in a cardboard box when I was about 3 days old, so it's quite possible I was born to a single mother, and single motherhood is abhorrent in the culture I was born into. It's also well-known that stable married couples don't usually give away their children.

Maybe my birth mother just knew I was the "spawn of Satan" -- and decided to get rid herself of me as soon as possible. :unsure::sneaky::confused:

But no matter who she is or what her story may be, I will always give her credit for carrying me to full term.

I'm very glad she carried you full term also. :)

30 years ago?!

OP what is that in donkeys years, you must have a long memory


anyway, I come across old christian books in the church library that are from the 90s and claim they are modern so...

I kinda think some men just have outdated attitudes and low expectations of women. And now they are panicking cos they cant handle. Lots of men still run away from responsibilty like I dont know how many married and then decided it was just too hard, took another lover and left their wife up the creek without a paddle. Seems like a lot?

some children never heard from their dads again.

I recall one girl said of her dad well he liked gambling/drinking more than me

if that is men going their own way well I would just choose to stay with the mum if I was the child.

Actually I'm more an Omega personality type than a beta. I'm not following you or anyone. We might have to be going the same direction, but that's only coincidence. But I don't insist on you following me either. As long as you leave me alone, I'm fine with whatever.

Your insults make a lot of assumptions. You would be able to insult people much more effectively if you first learned something about them.

Or does that take too much effort?

One thing is for sure, discussions like this make one even more thankful for what we have right in front of us.

I'm in a very small Christian chat, but after reading this thread, we all just thanked each other for everyone doing their best to be an active follower of Jesus and applying His truths in love, whether a man or woman. 🙏

Well... Not all of us. I was in church at the time.

I want to know single men's opinion on marriage. The dating scene and christianity have both changed over the last about 30 years.

We also have third wave feminism, the advent of 'strong, independent women' who disdain men, and men's counter movements like MGTOW, Redpill ideology, and the Manosphere.

With the state of the world, what are you single men's thoughts in marriage? Is it something you want, are pursuing, are considering, or are rejecting, and why?
I'm (recently) no longer single, but I do have a relevant view on this subject.

Marriage is God's design, so it is good. The current mess of marriage, and of relationships in general, is a reflection of the fallenness of humanity, not of a flawed design.

The instruction of Scripture is still relevant: if you can't live your life without wanting to be married (with all its benefits), then get married. If you can, then stay single. Either way, don't complain about your current situation. :)

Slacker. 😁🤪🤣

How dare you be in church while the rest of us were fellowshipping!

(Hopefully people here will know I'm just kidding.)

I love this place!!
It's like a box of chocolates. Ya never know what you will get.
Methinks that's not "a box of chocolates" that you're beholding here.

Similar in color?

Yes.

Similar in smell and taste?

Not even close.

The mouths of some people here are like backed up septic tanks which show what their hearts are really full of, and it's not the Spirit of God.

Lol oh I see you are assuming that I was calling you a beta. Well not so, I was just commenting on the reality of the betas and how they operate.

You say you are an omega though, do you even know what that means? If you are truly an omega that would make you the oldest one I have ever found and thus you would become the new leader of our holy knighthood.

I don't think your order could fit all the omega personality types. And if you could, it would be a pain in the butt trying to get them to follow orders.

It's not a personality type. This is a club one can't join, you can only leave it.

Yes. You are talking about a different kind of omega. And I'd be willing to bet none of them have an omega personality. If they did, they probably wouldn't be in your club. They'd be reading a book or tuning up a motorcycle or getting into a wingsuit or something.
