why do christians deny the holy spirit?
Q. The closing decades of the 20th century and the first years of the 21st century have been times of significant flux. Technology, society, family, and religion, have shifted in incredible ways. Part of the change in religion during the past 25 years has been an upsurge of worship of feminine deities - goddesses. Whereas part of this trend was unquestionably fostered by feminism, other aspects of seeking the Divine Feminine were totally unrelated. Recently, women and men have felt an increasing affinity for Goddess - a sense of being drawn. Yet, the Bible seemed to be mute on the matter. Most clergy [who were products of culture and theological seminaries, and were protective of denominational dogma and their own salaries] had no meaningful… [cont.]

Lilith, why is she seen as evil?
Q. She was a strong, independent woman in the bible (the versions that kept her in at least) and now she is seen as a demoness for being strong willed and no submitting to a male. I just have to ask how on earth is that evil? Now, I don't believe in the bible, I'm speaking of her as a mere character, not a religious figure. But this is religion related because she is seen by the Christian religion as evil. Are they trying to say that any woman who is strong, independent and non-submissive is evil? If that's the case then I guess the bible would call me evil too, or any woman who doesn't serve her husband and submit to males for that matter. What I want to know is just why they see her as evil when she did nothing wrong but stand up for… [cont.]

A. She was a strong independent woman in the Bible... Well there you go then ;o) She's a "morality" tale pushing a morality that is no longer mainstream. Essentially, yes, in those days society was entirely patriarchal and male-dominated. Any idea of the female in godhead, or of female equality with males, was viewed, certainly in the Abrahamic faiths, as blasphemous and, let's not forget, also socially troublesome. She did nothing wrong but stand up for herself, as you say, but back then, that was wayyy more than enough to get her replaced by the suitably subservient Eve. In particular of course, she represents the scandalous truth of female sexuality - that it doesn't exist simply for the business of procreation and the pleasure of men,… [cont.]
