Who Makes This Stuff Up?

As you can see, I'm not a very consistent blogger.

I usually have a burr under my saddle when I do.

Oh well.

Facebook is fascinating. You can spread your story in the blink of an eye! And, you have a pretty big audience. 

So, if you want everyone you know to know about your life...well! There it is.

And, I would assume you want Comments on it. Positive comments.

But.

Hmmm.

What if they aren't positive?

Delete button!  Yaaaaaaaaaay!!

Get ready to push the button, Frank.

I'm concerned about the trend of young Christian women to read non-fiction literature based on ideals outside the word of God. 

Especially those books written by non-believers with an agenda. 

Well, pretty much any non-believer.

I have trouble with the majority of books written by believers! 

One of the books going around is a nice little missive called "Quiet" by Susan Cain.

Who was a Wall Street attorney and didn't like it.

A woman who had latched onto a label, created out of the field of psychology, called "Introvert", slapped it on her forehead, and lived that life.

Whatever that is.

I cannot understand the fascination with these books. They are designed to separate us. 

To make differences that matter.

 Asked what inspired her to write the book, Cain likened introverts today to women at the dawn of the feminist movement—second-class citizens with gigantic amounts of untapped talent. She said that our institutions are designed for extroverts, causing many introverts to believe that something is wrong with them and that they should try to 'pass' as extroverts. She concluded that this bias against introversion leads to "a colossal waste of talent, energy, and happiness," saying that it is "the next great diversity issue of our time."   (wikipedia)




Well, it could be. Now that you've got a group of influenced people to spread the poison word.

Harsh, you say?

Yes. Yes it is.

But with a good reason.

I am tired of women being the target of every jerk that wants to water down the presence of God in their lives. 

Reading books like these can be informative, but if they are not Truth, they are death.

Jesus never put a label on anyone.

Except the Pharisees and Sadducees.  But they asked for it!

 “You are altogether beautiful, my darling,
And there is no blemish in you."  Song of Solomon 4:7

That is what God says about us. 

Why do we insist in making ourselves less?
