Even more remarkable, the bookworm can even wield a pen, which if ancient customs are to be believed, is mightier than a sword.Dougnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19505042.post-74407306420161487682009-08-22T09:38:45.029-07:002009-08-22T09:38:45.029-07:00Or did God create animals so that we would underst...<i>Or did God create animals so that we would understand that essential gender characteristics flip flop back and forth by species? </i><br /><br />From personal observation, I would say that all general fleshly associated characteristics flip flop around in the animal kingdom and there is no consistency at all. Then I have to note that as humans and spiritual beings in the image of God, full of a special creativity, humans have always been able to choose to be whatever we wanted. We can behave like wolves, monkeys, lions, black widows, etc. you name it.<br /><br />Thus the idea that women must behave in certain vlunerable or protective ways to be considered feminine just doesn't fly in reality. Same goes for men and masculinity. It is the attempt at boxing people into controlled types that injures people.<br /><br />Frankly, anyone who tries to take a mother's child from them is going to have trouble. It's difficult to say who is going to be more protective or defensive, mother or father.believer333https://www.blogger.com/profile/03480546499577897857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19505042.post-80337354249679535952009-08-22T02:24:32.808-07:002009-08-22T02:24:32.808-07:00I wouldn't want to get in the way of a she-hum...I wouldn't want to get in the way of a she-human robbed of her cubs, I mean children, either.Peter Kirkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13395635409427347613noreply@blogger.com
