I regularily read this blog. I have great respect for the blogger. So by no means is this a dig. But a comment I read today went something like this:
"he is the head of our household."
And then a commenter wrote this:
"...submit to our husbands and support the decisions they make for our family."
and another
"but [I] wanted to honor God by submitting to him."
Woah.
Now
, maybe its because I don't subscribe to a single organized religion
. Or maybe its just the way I was raised. Or maybe its just a personal preference. But I am just floored. Floored that marriage in this day and age is not a 2 way street. I work at home, so I don't bring in an income, per se. My husband is our breadwinner. But he certainly is not the head of our household. We make all major decisions...financial, child-rearing, life-concerning...together. I am just stumped. Is there something in the bible that says that you are not honoring God if you do not submit to your husband? Again, not a dis by any means. Just an honest thought process.
