Thank you to Kbonikowsky and PinkLight for shedding light on this for me. I get it now. I had come to believe that Jesus IS God and therefore, except when taking on the role of the Messiah, could be nothing but equal to God. Which is part of why the complementarian view was confusing to me. The Trinity is kind of hard to conceptualize I think so I wanted to make sure I was understanding the complementarian and egalitarian views correctly.

The whole idea that comps believe the husband to be like God to their wives…I just really don’t even know what to say about that except, maybe, wow. I’m really not trying to sound snarky, but that’s just, whoa.

I can honestly say that I really didn’t grasp the fact that this issue ran so deep so thank you both for helping me out here. I’m definately interested to see where the rest of this discussion goes and to learn a bit more about what I once considered to be something of a “side-issue”.
