Do not call anyone your father ...

... a fairly-harmless verse, eh?

Not 'harmless' if allowed to bounce around in an ingenious mind, as it connects first to the 'do unto others as you would have them do unto you' ... you start thinking 'how dare I allow people to call ME father? I'd better protect the world against the temptation to call me "father"---if I'm a pathetic-enough loser, they'll never be so-tempted!...

'Now, where's my halo and my w-- wait, do Saints have wings?'-- But 'the blessed world' doesn't work that way! (I'm not talking about the worldly world that Christianity separates us from, but the world that "God so-loved" as Jesus tells the high Pharisee in John 3:16) In the blessed world, men need their father ON EARTH to show them the steps they ought to take to become fathers themselves (who show their sons the steps to take to become new fathers, who show their sons, etc.)

A majority of the men in prison were brought up in fatherless homes  :sad1:

So ... one wants to raise their children well before they read that their fathers are not their TRUE Father?

If I'm 'happy alone' (I'm not 'committed to being alone,' but--like Saul/Paul--I'm 'content in all situations' ... the current situation being "allllll alone  :(;) ), does that make me some kind of abomination?

See how dangerous it is to be happy, Christian & single (in that order)?
------------------------------------------------------------------------------That's what a Pharisee might say today. You now have the chance to respond as my mentor Jesus-of-Joseph would, and I pray that you will!

The commandment says to ,Honor your mother and your father.Jesus didnt mean NOT to.He meant that only Jehovah deserves exacting devotion.

He told Satan that when the devil asked for an act of worship.Remember what God told Moses....This expression has reference to the fact that Jehovah does not tolerate any rivalry, the worship of any other gods. The Hebrew word qan·naʼ′ is used only of God; it means “exacting exclusive devotion; jealous.”—Ex 20:5, ftn; see JEALOUS, JEALOUSY.

Exclusive devotion
