The Family Research Council explains that 'submission' means when a husband and wife disagree, the husband wins because that's how God wants it.
Peter Sprigg, a senior fellow for policy studies at the conservative Family Research Council, said he believed that concerns over a tension between Bachmann's adherence to an ancient biblical code and her duties should she become president were misplaced.
He said that her interpretation of St. Paul rested solely with matters related to family and marriage, "not if she was elected president of the United States."
An ordained Baptist minister, Sprigg said most evangelical Christians don't believe that a husband is a "dictator," but that both he and his wife should discuss issues thoroughly and try to reach consensus.
"The idea of a wife submitting to her husband is kind of a tiebreak," he said. "Only those circumstances where they're unable to reach a consensus is it necessary for the wife to exercise this. It's maybe about as common as the vice president having to break a tie in the U.S. Senate."

A couple who had been married 50 years were asked their secret for staying married.
"Well," the husband said, "we agreed that she would make the small decisions, and I would make the big ones."
He was asked what the big decisions were.
"I don't know. We haven't hit one yet."

What if your husband is a complete jerk? I knew of one couple with a sweet kind evangelical Christian wife and a husband who was a cheating alcoholic.
Is that really what Jesus would want?

Remember, not a dictator, just that when in doubt, he gets his way...

His way was to spend the money on him and ignore his children.

Plus, Lisa Miller@WaPo says the whole Dominionist thing is just liberal fear-mongering and making a dig deal about it risks lumping in millions of Americans with a fringe element.
The Republican primaries are six months away, and already news stories are raising fears on the left about “crazy Christians.”
One piece connects Gov. Rick Perry with a previously unknown Christian group called “The New Apostolic Reformation,” whose main objective is to “infiltrate government.” Another highlights whacko-sounding Christian influences on Michele Bachmann. A third cautions readers to be afraid, very afraid, of “dominionists.”
The stories raise real concerns about the world views of two prospective Republican nominees. But their echo-chamber effect reignites old anxieties among liberals about evangelical Christians. Some on the left seem suspicious that a firm belief in Jesus equals a desire to take over the world. (Some extremist Christians leveled a similar charge against Obama in 2008, that he was the antichrist aiming to take over world governments.)

Had a priest tell that one at my In-Laws mass for their 50th anniversary.

I guess she missed the news over the past couple of years about conservative Christians trying to take over the Texas SBOE and influence school textbook choices nationally. Nothing to see there.

I knew a man with two wives. He told me once that he was the head of his household, and his decisions were law. He further explained that when a decision had to be made, his wives consulted with each other and told him what his decision was. And after that, it was law.
A sensible man.

Well, I don't think so.
But I don't think Bryan Fischer is real interested in what you or I think.

According to the FRC, hell yes.

Beautiful Music!
Truth be told, I've never heard the Carly Simon version of this song (I'm young, not yet 30 but very close). I'll youtube it tomorrow I s'pose, to get some context.
I have only one Pat Metheny album, called We Live Here. Any recommendations for other albums?
