Hello Mr. Duncan,
You assume much,
I try to avoid giving advise, It is seldom wanted and less seldom headed.
I do not advise marriage for myself at 61 y/o.
If someone can make a woman happy being Married, I am all for it,
and as I found, if you can make a woman happy with Divorce, I am all for that too.
If you Love someone, you will wish to see them happy. With that I am happy.
I do not see women as propriety and have no wish,
to wasting my life trying to control women or men.
It seems to me that if a person can not control their own life.
It is hardly advisable to try to control others.
I do not see that there are any similarities between us,
with the exception of what hangs between our legs.
I my case it is seldom hanging down.
Buddha has not formed a religion but a way of living, and nothing more.
The Buddha life is neither Feminist nor Masculine in life's Living.
For most Atheist The Buddha life is vary compatible.
Stepping away from my norm,
let me advise that you look toward the more Radical Moslem religion,
as from the postings you have presented, you seem to have one foot there already.
I DO NOT THINK THAT FOLLOWING THE LIFE OF THE MOHAMED WILL DO FOR YOU,
AS HE WAS PURE, OPEN HEARTED AND LIFE FULFILLING.
Much alike are Jesus, Buddha, Mohamed, before the corruption of religions.
Physic may be for you it is extremely time consuming and you my need the diversion.

Speaking from a Metaphysical View, (FWIS)
As far as, astral projections and out-of-body experiences, like God,
it is something that is not real until you experience it
and then you cannot shut-up about it. LOL
***************************************
As for the Death Net,
It is the "residue of Your Own Life," that is left unchangeable,
as you make each and every Change in yourself, in each "Today" that you can live.
The Death Net,
occupies all the Space that you have ever used,
from where the Earth was at your Birth, until you "DIE"
and there you remain as the Earth moves on without you, remaining in the Present.
For sure, I am Indifferent to your wish to control Women,
Or your crusade, or anyone crusade "for" or "against" Women Or anyone
and see it as a wasted effort, from Eve's time. (So to speak)
*****************************************************
I do not see how you can think that I have a view that is a "elegated status of womanhood" Duncan
It is quite plain that Women will continue to provide the world with offspring,
unless "MEN learn to give Birth, and I for-see Cloning happening long before that occurs.
and if Men had to go through the Pain involved, it would never happen anyway.
Also I have found that Most Peoples reorganization of "SIN" is,
that it is only something that other people Do.
********************************************
Finally. Prophetically speaking.
Soon the ever increasing loss of the fertilely of Men will bring Women in the full control of the Earth and the continuation of Man on it.
**************************
And now that you are wholly pissed-off, bent-out, and momentarily speechless.
I too, I wish you well, and invite you to get back in touch,
if you should ever decide, that you would like to talk seriously about the nature of HUMANKIND.
AS I think WE are worth being taken very seriously in thought and in deed.
BE AT EASE Your E-Pal OMJerry
