Proof that God is not sexist, just practical
November 28th, 2006 by JWI found the following headline and story of interest:
Many have taken offense to such passages as 1 Corinthians 14:34-35 and 1 Timothy 2:11-12. They find them to be sexist and unfair. But now I believe we can say unequivocally, armed with the above study, that God simply had our best interests in mind. We all know how verbose some of us (present company excluded, of course) can be in the pulpit, now multiply that by three!!! God designed the human posterior and simply knew we wouldn’t be able to bear it.
Thanking God for His practicality and wisdom, proven oft o’er and o’er

on the planet, with humans coming in third…) in Douglas Adams classic sci-fi book (and one of my all time favs) The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, attempted to communicate to mankind. Unfortunately the message was misinterpreted as a very fancy set of backward somersaults (or something along those lines). The dolphins knew of the impending destruction of Earth in order to make way for a new intergalactic hyperspace highway and took off for another planet shortly before the construction crews arrived. What was their final farewell as they left the humans behind to explode? …thanks for all the fish…
This statement is meant to be funny by the fact that it is very counter-intuitive. Most comedy is only funny because it has its roots in truth. The truth is, many of us take this attitude. We beat ourselves up for our shortcomings instead of realizing that trying and failing always trumps failing to try. We often focus on the shortcomings of others as well. Many times our preaching is focused on shortcomings as well and we preach the ‘negatives’ with many a rebuke and warning.
