day no .16,409: a clear sign of God's curse on mankind

Isaiah 3:12

As for my people,

children are their oppressors,

and women rule over them.

O my people,

they which lead thee cause thee to err,

and destroy the way of thy paths.

The widespread and increasing presence of estrogen in leadership roles is a clear sign of God's curse on a nation.

Beware the woes of womenion. Where women are the dominion, men have forfeited their mission.

Diversity and inclusion committees are signs of progress only inasmuch as they are progressing slowly toward the edge of a cliff. Their presence guarantees the downfall of any who run them out. Where womankind is on the coin, mankind is clearly under the curse.

Genesis 3:16

Unto the woman He said,

"Thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee."

The curse of Eve is a constant desire to control the narrative. The curse of Adam is letting her write the story. But the story of the world is not a rom-com, it is an epic battle and the more you have your character development contrived by Mr. Rights the more you can expect the plot to go wrong. There is room for romance and love in war, but there is no room for mettle in a chick flick. God's story makes room for all good things in their proper place.

"An increase in the influence of women in public life has often been associated with nattional decline. The later Romans complained that, although Rome ruled the world, women ruled Rome. In the tenth century, a similar tendency was observable in the Arab Empire, the women demanding admission to the professions hitherto monopolised by men." — Sir John Glubb, The Fates of Empires

When women and children are in charge, men have failed. The men have not failed to lead, they have failed to lead well. Strictly speaking, God has made men to lead. This is inexorable. Men cannot not lead. So, even where women and children rule the roost, it is the men who led the procession to crown them. Men can lead poorly. They can push women and children out front and into authority, but they cannot remove themselves from their responsibilities.

It is good and godly for a man to put women and children ahead of himself where hot food or escape from danger is considered and bad and wicked when he puts them into positions of ultimate authority and responsibility. 

Women in places of power points to weak men off somewhere else. No man worth his salt would stand idly by. He can't. So if a man does, it is his vacuum that is filled in. Men can abandon their posts, but they can't abandon the fact that the post is theirs. They may not be there, but they cannot remove their responsibility to be the one who should’ve been there.
