Let's turn the tables...
The perfect woman?????
OK, I've decided to give the likes of I.B.Truth and Lufer and whatever male specimens may be lurking in the background equal ground and throw this out to them. We menos (and young 'un in the person of Yellow Rose), have had our platform, such as it is, in the form of this blog. So I hereby, in all my Minnie wisdom (limited though it may be), find myself reversing the question of late and asking all you maleisms to tell us if you would be so kind, what qualities might comprise the "perfect woman." (Which, by the way, is NOT an oxymoran like last time).
I will open this question up to our female clientele as well. Since they are the ones in possession of said qualities, or lack of, it seems only fair to call upon them as well.
I.B….Truthful one that you proclaim to be (and you haven't disappointed us so far), we're all awaiting with baited breath, or is it bated breath? Either way, I think there's a cure for that.
Anxiously in waiting…

I.B.....we need you!!! In the name of profoundness, blog away!
For those of you heathens out there with no Bibles, you're just going to have to take our word for it. As for mine, it's a Catholic bible, so I had to dust it off! Another subject entirely. We should probably keep our distance from religion and politics on this site, all agree?

I'm sure most of you have attempted to find a solution tot his query online (as have I). This is the closest thing to an answer that I have found:
The phrase "[A] hedge or wall of separation between the garden of the church and the wilderness of the world" was first used by Baptist theologian Roger Williams, the founder of the colony of Rhode Island.[4][5] It was later used by Thomas Jefferson as a description of the First Amendment and its restriction on the legislative branch of the federal government, in an 1802 letter[6] to the Danbury Baptists (a religious minority concerned about the dominant position of the Congregationalist church in Connecticut), assuring that their rights as a religious minority would be protected from federal interference. As he stated:
Believing with you that religion is a matter which lies solely between man and his God, that he owes account to none other for his faith or his worship, that the legitimate powers of government reach actions only, and not opinions, I contemplate with sovereign reverence that act of the whole American people which declared that their legislature should "make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof," thus building a wall of separation between church and State. Adhering to this expression of the supreme will of the nation in behalf of the rights of conscience, I shall see with sincere satisfaction the progress of those sentiments which tend to restore to man all his natural rights, convinced he has no natural right in opposition to his social duties.
Jefferson's letter was in reply to a letter[7] that he had received from the Danbury Baptist Association dated 1801-10-07. In an 1808 letter to Virginia Baptists, Jefferson would use the same theme:
"We have solved, by fair experiment, the great and interesting question whether freedom of religion is compatible with order in government and obedience to the laws. And we have experienced the quiet as well as the comfort which results from leaving every one to profess freely and openly those principles of religion which are the inductions of his own reason and the serious convictions of his own inquiries."
I believe this is a most appropriate discussion since Monday is designated, "Constitution Day." But then, we're just a most astute crowd.
