4 Your neck is like an ivory tower. Your eyes are pools in Heshbon, by the gate of Bathrabbim. Your nose is like a tower of Lebanon, overlooking Damascus.

10 but by good deeds, as befits women who profess religion.
11 Let a woman learn in silence with all submissiveness.
12 I permit no woman to teach or to have authority over men; she is to keep silent.

Rev 13:11 = Then I saw another beast which rose out of the earth; it had two horns like a lamb and it spoke like a dragon.
12 It exercises all the authority of the first beast in its presence, and makes the earth and its inhabitants worship the first beast, whose mortal wound was healed.
13 It works great signs, even making fire come down from heaven to earth in the sight of men;
14 and by the signs which it is allowed to work in the presence of the beast, it deceives those who dwell on earth, bidding them make an image for the beast which was wounded by the sword and yet lived;
15 and it was allowed to give breath to the image of the beast so that the image of the beast should even speak, and to cause those who would not worship the image of the beast to be slain.
16 Also it causes all, both small and great, both rich and poor, both free and slave, to be marked on the right hand or the forehead,
17 so that no one can buy or sell unless he has the mark, that is, the name of the beast or the number of its name.

11 And the smoke of their torment goes up for ever and ever; and they have no rest, day or night, these worshipers of the beast and its image, and whoever receives the mark of its name."

Rev 17:16 = And the ten horns that you saw, they and the beast will hate the harlot; they will make her desolate and naked, and devour her flesh and burn her up with fire,

Rev 18:8 = so shall her plagues come in a single day, pestilence and mourning and famine, and she shall be burned with fire; for mighty is the Lord God who judges her."

Rev 20:4 = Then I saw thrones, and seated on them were those to whom judgment was committed. Also I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for their testimony to Jesus and for the word of God, and who had not worshiped the beast or its image and had not received its mark on their foreheads or their hands. They came to life, and reigned with Christ a thousand years.

Rev 22:15 = Outside are the [homogay-sodomite] dogs and sorcerers and fornicators and murderers and idolaters, and every one who loves and practices falsehood.

Whenever I salute the American flag, or take off my hat when The National Anthem is sung (with or without my hand over my heart - depending on whether an authoritative man or woman sings it), I am doing so with "tongue-in-cheek." Why that is is that it signifies to a few seeing me do so my honor to liberty and freedom and to The Freedom-Giver, but signifies to most seeing me that I am worshipping liberty and freedom themselves with perhaps infrequent and meager obedience to The Giver of Freedom but mostly frequent and massive disobedience against Him as I choose to "do my own thing" irrespective of Him and whatever HE wants.

Hence, because freedom for the immoral majority is misused by the immoral majority, freedom is not only extremely dangerous and lamentable (not merely because of them but because that severely affects me), but such freedom is downright despicably and deplorably wicked. Liberty (to choose to do evil) sucks.

And WHO is to blame, again? The Garden of Eden - despite God calling His creation "good," was not completely good. Not only did the LORD allow "the serpent" into The Garden (see Genesis ) but Genesis 2:9 records that He placed into The Garden "the tree of the knowledge of good AND EVIL. And evil? WHY the evil? True, God did give a warning to not eat of the fruit thereof according to Genesis 2:16 and 17....but still: WHY the needless(?) stumbling block? It obviously caused the situation of "an accident waiting to happen." It was like a devious and disasterous latent zipfile that had not been unzipped. A horrible self-executable file which had not been launched. A Pandora's Box not yet opened.

And who or what was that "serpent" which Revelation 12:9 and 20:2 calls "The Devil and Satan?" Why was it or he allowed to half-dishonestly (NOT half-"honestly") give Eve a half-lie (NOT half-"truth").....coaxing her to doubt, question, and ultimately disregard and disobey God?

Even with the command of and by God to Adam and Eve to not disobey, why even present the potential stumbling blocks of the serpent and the tree in the first place? Because of the misuse of freedom and free will, is not giving both Archangel Lucifer and human beings freedom and free will probably the most incredibly-stupid thing God the Creator ever did (and ANY being ever did, for that matter)? The misery and suffering that has resulted from that! As the expression goes: "GIVE me a BREAK"!

So why did Lucifer chose to ignore God and pretend that he himself was God in everything he thought and did? Why do the immoral majority of lying, dishonest, thieving, immodest, molesting and raping, sodomizing, gossipping, jealous, complaining, resentful, irritable, hateful, and murderous people ignore God and pretend that they themselves are God in everything they think and do? As Saint Paul stated (in II Thessalonians 2:7): THAT is a mystery! Incidently, that corruption and thus environment of corruption all are now immersed in, which Lucifer-turned-Satan and which temporarily-disobedient Adam and Eve initiated, has defiled the whole human race of progeny and offspring ever since, and which even Saint Paul bemoaned about himself, noting that he wanted to obey God 24/7 perfectly, but found that his ingrained, inherited, and duressed "sinful nature" caused him to frequently do otherwise.

The holy intention to never screw up ever again (because: WHAT is the POINT of ever again screwing up?) is admirable, and even required....to get into That Place Where One Is Eternally Disabled From Ever Screwing Up Again (i.e. the Paradise of Heaven). But more is required, involving belief in the atoning bloody sacrifice of Christ's own body for the cancellation of the penalty of past personal sins, and complete surrender and submission to such Redeemer, Savior, and Master (i.e. Jesus Christ).

We cannot (or, better yet: should not) blame the Intelligent Designer for intelligently designing freewill beings - both angelic/demonic and human types. After all, He can do and did do anything He wants and wanted. Besides that, He is invaribly and totally benevolent - unless we get in His way and the ways He has set up and set in motion phenomena of nature...and unless we are so noncompliant and thus woefully ignorant that we don't have enough God-given knowledge and sense to know what is coming, what is involved, and how to avoid whatever we should avoid. Looking at the bright side, creating freewill creatures with choice to think and do things any way they want instead of (and including) His ONE way does make for potential excitement instead of predictable boredom, which supposed boredom would occur from a bunch of programmed robots never veering from the path of the Programmer.

And then there is that special satisfaction and joy that the Designer gets when His designed respond positively THE one and only way they should in their own special formats and varieties, knowing that such thoughts and actions of the designed came from scentient beings who deliberately wanted to do and chose to do what they did, rather than simply responding to robotic-like instinctual pre-programming.

As my wife and I saw in Shrek III, you never know what random-acts-and-accidents burpy poopy babies will do.
