1 | Women less sinful than us?? | 1 Tim 2:14 | Robin Hass | 157951 | ||
Why is it, that women seem to be far less sinful than men? Women swear less, they don’t generally get into fights, they are rarely ‘violent drunks’, they seldom abuse children. Prisons are full of men (the ratio is 8:1 I think); most serial killers are men. When women are jailed for murder often there is some ‘svengali’ male character involved that influenced and led them. Most churches are full of women too, whether Protestant, Evangelical, Orthodox or Catholic. I have observed and pondered this many times. What exactly is going on? it seems really odd to me that half the human race seems to be less affected by their fallen nature. I reflect on the situation in Northern Ireland where the Catholics and Protestants (men) hate, kill, shoot and blow each other up. It always seems to be the women that are the ones desirous of peace. Why is this? |

2 | Women less sinful than us?? | 1 Tim 2:14 | Makarios | 157953 | ||
Ha! Was it a woman that was first enticed by the serpent? (Genesis 3:1-6) Was Rachel any help to Jacob when she stole the household gods? (Genesis 31:19) Was it a woman who tempted Joseph and whose lies and trickery was responsible for his imprisonment? (Genesis 39) Was it a woman who asked for the head of John the Baptist? (John 14:8) Was Job's wife any help or any encouragement to him? (Job 2:9) Was David's wife any help to him? (2 Samuel 6:16-23) Were all of Solomon's wives of any help at all to him? (1 Kings 11:1-4) And I could go on and on and on.. It seems to me that Paul was right when he said that it is better not to marry (1 Cor. 7:1).. Perhaps Scripture and the present day church does not support your particular view. Blessings to you, Makarios |

I'm fully aware that there are bad women around, I carefully worded my post. But what about the 8:1 ratio in the prisons. When was the last time your friend was glassed in the eye by a women. Do women shoot people in drive bys. Do divorced women kill their children to hurt their ex-partners?? | ||||||

Greetings Robin, When definitely have their share in the fall of mankind as well as men. Just because you found a stastic somewhere that says that there are more men in prison does not mean that that same statistic can be extrapolated as a representation of men and women as a whole in society.. Was Jezebel ever arrested? Perhaps not.. But she still had her part in the judgment, and so does everyone else. If you are looking for some support to this notion that women are any less sinful then men, then you have found the wrong internet website. - Makarios |
