Are women more sinful than men?
King Solomon
Is purported to have had 700 wives and 300 concubines. I would assume he knew more than the most men about the character of women. He conducted a test and this is what is recorded in the Bible of the results of his observations.
“Indeed, there is no one on earth who is righteous,
no one who does what is right and never sins.”
no one who does what is right and never sins.”
“Look,” says the Teacher, “this is what I have discovered:
Adding one thing to another to discover the scheme of things—
while I was still searching
but not finding—
I found one upright man among a thousand,
but not one upright woman among them all.” (Ecclesiastes Chapter 7)
while I was still searching
but not finding—
I found one upright man among a thousand,
but not one upright woman among them all.” (Ecclesiastes Chapter 7)
Mohammed
Had thirteen wives and was purported to had have a multitude of slaves and concubines. I assume he too knew quite a bit about women.
The Quran records he had a revelation and this is what is written what he observed about Hell.
- Narrated Usama:
The Prophet said, “I stood at the gate of Paradise and saw that the majority of the people who entered it were the poor, while the wealthy were stopped at the gate (for the accounts). But the companions of the Fire were ordered to be taken to the Fire. Then I stood at the gate of the Fire and saw that the majority of those who entered it were women.”
My Own Observations
I have had one wife for forty-nine years. When someday in the far off future when my wife meets St. Peter at the Pearly Gates, I believe he will observe her life being married to me and state this..
“Diane, you are a Saint for putting up with Rudy all those years.”
