Sunday morning escapism

Posted on January 12, 2011 by bwebaptistwomenforequality

For a few minutes each week, we escape from the real life where we live and live in the past and try to solve their problems of thousands ago. That was a long time ago, and nothing like what we live in today. Sure, they treated women awful and we know the Patriarchs had multiple wives, but that was Then. We don’t live that way today.
