any guy who has tried to understand a woman has found himself tied up in similar [GORDIAN] knots.

Oh yes. Similar and, if anything, of a greater magnitude. The argument is simple:

1. Both experience and common sense suffice to show: both women and God are intrinsically mysterious.
2. Both are POTENTIALLY rational, for:
   1. Women are human; and
   2. Man is the rational animal, as the Philosopher says; and
   3. God is the source of Reason.
3. Now, to say something is rational is to speak of potentiality. This can be easily demonstrated for
   1. children are human and
   2. are not rational YET
4. But in God, all that is potential is Actual, as the Philosopher and Angelic Doctor attest.
5. Therefore God is actually rational.
6. But women are only potentially rational.
7. A fortiori If we cannot understand God, who is ACTUALLY rational, how much less can we understand women, who are only potentially rational (and, as far as I can tell, doing their best to keep it that way). Therefore women are more mysterious than God.

And thank you all for your kind words. I will report you to the moderator for making personal remarks, just as soon as I get over being glad you made them.
