This is too funny. Here are bits and pieces of a forum thread.
*******************
A - I think we would all agree that women are the weaker vessels wouldn't we?
B - (choke)
C - scripture doesn’t say so.
says we are to treat women as the weaker vessel.
i think.
A - you may be right, C
A - actually "treat them with respect as the weaker partner"...1 Peter 3:7
B - weaker as in our muscles aren't as strong?
C - as being heirs together of the grace of life
D - Husbands are to dwell with their wives according to knowledge (gnosis) giving honor unto the wife AS the weaker (more unfirm) vessel. etc. ....
E - Weaker as in lessor authority.
B - that's weak.
D - It's not about authority. Its about the vessel/instrument. Skeuos = instrument, IOW, the physical body.
A - I think you need to flush that out a little more so it makes sense

Anyway, some people who comment here are in that thread. And I have discovered a truly wonderful blog in the process.
