Wasn't this thread about Stephen Hawking's views on women?
SO let's discuss that...Q. What makes women special or significant?
If you can successfully apply all those verses to something Hawking said in the above article,
please do that.
Because I have read my Bible and nothing I said in my post conflicted with it --
In fact when Archimedes and Elijah lived, the
New Testament did not yet exist on planet earth.
Archimedes' life was dedicated to mathematics and sensible measurement,
and Elijah spent his life interacting with God and God's people --
both of them learned about God but the spiritual legacy of Elijah lasted in a way that bears living fruit.
Stephen Hawking will find that his "great ideas" are quickly replaced by newer ones, and that the "old truths" from the Bible and human history (i.e. humans know that the divine exists and worship it) don't conflict with quantum physics.
I understand the eagerness to defend the faith, but "zeal without knowledge" hurts Christians just as much as nonbelievers.
Hawking has a lot of zeal, but because of his limiting beliefs, he has less knowledge than he will ever know.
He thinks that Christians are the ones who are limited because of what they believe.
The truth is that Christians refuse to deny God, and science is trying to bury him.
Therefore any scientist who is working against the tidal wave force of the godless mainstream is doing a "good job" and I do NOT need to be told verses about how to define the word "good".
This conversation is far beyond such simple concepts; at this level we are discussing details, sharing the assumption of a common starting point which is faith in Christ Jesus.
P.S. I am surprised no one pointed out a popular "scientist" using the word "mystery" inappropriately.
Women are no "mystery", they are beautiful, lovely, necessary, and a nice relief from rigor.
Why, Hawking seems hostile to anything he doesn't understand, especially the Lord.
It would seem that Sir Hawking could be a member of a Mystery Religion, in fact!
Because mystery religions often revolve around fertility and childbirth, like the cult of Semiramis --
a twisted fertility cult with Oedipus stuff
. I would not be surprised if many "mainstream" scientists were into an offshoot of Satanism in some form.
Many might not realize it.
P.P.S. I didn't see one verse from Song of Solomon in that tirade. Isn't that part of the Bible too? It's chock full of reasons to love and appreciate women. Especially the smart ones. Solomon was the wisest Old Testament ruler we know of post-flood, and he wrote an entire book of the Bible just about women.Are Christian men ignorant of the joys of "fairness" in marriage? "Fair" doesn't mean "equal responsibility" -- it means RESPECT.
I know of one more man who really loved women:
Jacob. He worked 14 years to pay for Rachel. And who was the mother of Joseph, second to the Pharaoh of Egypt? Rachel. Was she worth it, Kili? 
(don't hate me for being a curious catty female!!)
