I'm not even going to try and challenge my husband's authority. I know my faults and I know I'm going to make mistakes but I'm going to trust my man and let him lead.

The problem is we often see things with modern secular eyes instead of biblical eyes. Yes, having your husband spank you is controversial because it's not specifically mentioned in the bible. However, we're supposed to submit to him and discipline is something that the bible makes very clear that all of us need. So when I do something wrong I don't have a problem submitting to his authority and it's honestly a lot easier just to take the spanking. We get off easy on this one but husbands are obligated to punish themselves and self-punishment can go on for days, weeks or even years.

That's your right. There are no rules in my sub that demand absolute agreement.

The only thing I will say is that I'm careful to not be imposing our Christian marital standards on others. So it's equally wise that people that disagree with those standards not try to impose their precepts on people like my husband and I.

I'm not very eloquent with my words and I seldom can explain anything very well. However, I think the article I linked to said it best.

" Spanking no more infantilizes a woman than a speeding ticket from a police officer infantilizes a man. Adults can and do discipline other adults all the time.

But some will answer my police officer giving a ticket analogy with “a speeding ticket is a piece of paper and the officer is not bending you over his knee and spanking you”. The reason for this kind of answer is because in our modern culture we look on any type of physical punishment with disdain. We think physical punishment, especially toward adults is “uncivilized”.

I never said we were children and I never said marriage was a punishment. I wonder if your opinion has been influenced by feminism.

To be fair most churches do this type of thing as standard in every country.

Really??? I'm guessing that the USA, Canada, Mexico and France missed that memo. I've been to church in all of those nations and I never once had to listen to the national anthem or see a nation's flag raised.

It tells me that she intensly studied those that she praised.

Look, Ayn Rand was a deeply flawed woman. If simply for her belief in the righteousness of murdering the pre-born that I would never be able to see her as a role model. However, we all must give the devil his due and that means her books could almost be prophecy in light of all that's currently going on in our society.

A man's sexual choice is a collection of his fundamental beliefs. Tell me what a man finds sexually attractive and I will tell you his whole life philosophy. - Ayn Rand

Although Ayn Rand had said "man" I think it equally applies to women. Obviously the gay community doesn't have too many nice things to say about Christianity or God.

Such information is in the same category of historical information as recording the size of a man's penis or a woman's breasts. IE: There's not a good reason to mention such information unless it played a serious role in how historical events unfolded.

Now if Hoover was indeed a fetishist and the decisions he made were because of his fetishes then we should record that. However, if there's no evidence to that effect then we should ignore it.

You might not but that's exactly the type of thing that would happen throughout history.

It seems to me that homosexuals like to meddle in politics and if what's going on today is any proof then they're politics are extremely messed up. So my question is: Were the homosexuals being persecuted because of the kind of sex they were engaging in or because everyone feared their far-left beliefs?

I don't understand this entire "coming out" mularky.

Here's my reasoning why I think coming out is hogwash,

I'm married and I don't discuss my sex life with anyone. Plus, when people come over to our home no one even sees our bedroom. In fact, because my husband is almost 30 years older than I am the majority of people don't even think we're married.

Same thing with homosexuals,

No one would know that they're gay if they just stopped flaunting it in everyone's face. When a gay couple goes for a walk together there will be people that are going to think the worst and be disgusted but 97% of the people won't care at all. Sure enough that I believe homosexuality is a sin and talks to me about it then I'll state my beliefs. However, I'm not going to break down someone's bedroom door to stop them from doing whatever it is that they're doing. All I'm saying is keep what's private PRIVATE.
