@ pinklight: those who are in rebellion often don’t see their rebellion until it’s too late. The key here is “often”, since the rebellion perpetrated by the comps is so well disguised that even they can’t see it for what it is, since they’ve manipulated Scripture and themselves so well that they are blind. They truly are blind guides for the blind, and eventually they will both fall into a pit.

You’re right, that their doctrine falls apart without the women. But thanks to stuff like the “True Womanhood” movement and other female-oriented comp stuff, winning the hearts and minds of comp women could be harder than we think. Seeing some of their stuff, slickly produced and sweetly manipulative, should tell us that we’re dealing with devilishly ingenious folks who know how to keep the leash six inches long, yet know how to do it in such a way that those on the collar end of the leash (the women!) don’t realize they are being manipulated and leashed. It all looks so good, like Alice in Wonderland’s Eat Me and Drink Me things, yet they do such damage. Mind control, anyone?
