Bible Question (short): Women less sinful than us?? |
Question (full): 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? |
