Flying your armor and weapon is far different than hauling it.

I don’t agree that women should just be stay at home, in other words, ban them from the military. Would you take women out of the work force altogether?

"Would you take women out of the work force altogether?"

If married women would stay home and raise the children, the value of their husband's labor would increase, and the pressure to have two incomes would decrease. Family life would be strengthened, the tendency for young people to get in trouble outside the home would diminish.

Would I take women out of the work force? Now how would I do that ?? Should it be done by law? No, of course not. Should Christian pastors teach once again, from the Scriptures, the value of women in the home? Of course they should.

I should add to post #293 (my last to you, that family-based enterprises are great for family and economy. I mean, an enterprise where husband, wife, and children work together to form and operate a company or business.

I am coming at this, as I do in all of my posts from the perspective of a Bible-believing Christian, reflective of America's Christian history and heritage. If you do not believe the Bible, then my commends are lost on you, that's all.

The Scriptures do not prohibit women from conducting business or enterprise, or from laboring ; but the context of them doing so in Scripture (e.g. Proverbs ch. 31 ; etc.) is always in direct correspondence to family order---the women's enterprise always centered around her home and family, diminishing the affects of her entering into a "dual headship," working for a man, for example who is a different woman's head, not hers.

Thus the most consistent course with Scriptural principle would be a business in which the husband and wife, and children are laboring together.
