Just Don’t Listen to Your Wife, Okay?

I don’t know what to do with this kind of advice especially when it is coming from God himself. Adam actually got punished for it. God looks at Adam in Genesis 3:17 and says “Dude, you are in big trouble. You listened to your wife and now things are going wacky for her and for you”. “So Mr., because you listened to your wife, I am cursing the ground because of you.” “You are going to sweat it out every time you need to earn any food.” Now, that is really some hash punishment in my opinion. Adam was simply being a good husband; one who, like many of us, does not want to start fights in his home. A good husband. A fine husband who gives his wife a voice in the home. Not a female chauvinist by any means. A man of today who understands the meaning of equality between the sexes. But all he gets as an appreciation for being a decent man is a strict and hash punishment from God who created man and woman. What a reward!

How would you answer God if you were Adam?
