Baptize the dead for Fred, Fill the tank for Frank?

Today


Today, I was chauffeured by Pope Chuckins in order to purchase a new wheelchair for the Boss.

Paraphrased:

Dr. Russ: Chuckles, that church parking lot is huge. It is like an arena parking lot.

Chuckles: Yes, Chilliwack is an extension of the 'Bible belt'.

Dr. Russ: I bet there is an LDS church here...

Chuckles: Searches with his online mobile: Yes, there is at this address...he states.

Dr. Russ:

Baptize the dead for Fred.
Fill the tank for Frank.

No, we are not LDS...

Excerpts cited

'Shortage of eligible men has left women taking desperate steps to preserve their fertility, experts say' 'A dearth of marriagable men has left an “oversupply” of educated women taking desperate steps to preserve their fertility, experts say.

The first global study into egg freezing found that shortages of eligible men were the prime reason why women had attempted to take matters into their own hands.

Experts said “terrifying” demographic shifts had created a “deficit” of educated men and a growing problem of “leftover” professional women, with female graduates vastly outnumbering males in in many countries.'

'The study led by Yale University, involved interviews with 150 women undergoing egg freezing at eight clinics.

Researchers found that in more than 90 per cent of cases, the women were attempting to buy extra time because they could not find a partner to settle down with, amid a “dearth of educated men”.' 

'They said sweeping social changes meant that many professional women now struggled to find a partner that felt like an equal match.'

And my personal favourite...

'Some women were paying a high price for feminism, she suggested.'

End citations

Seems to me there is significant documentation that Western society lacks educated men. Males are problematic in some cases.

So, should educated Christian women adapt and consider changing certain societal rules?

Should the pool of possible educated Christian men be expanded to men that are relatable and still youthful, as opposed to ageist rules based on numbers?

Does the Bible support, ageist, hyper-feministic views on younger women, defining out of possibility, dating and marrying, educated older men?

Should interest in educated older men remain secret, or should reasonable risks be taken to build friendships and see what God wills?
