Father’s Day

A "father" is a male parent of a child. This term can also refer to a male ancestor, a man who has originated or established something, or a term of respect for an elderly man or priest

Traits traditionally viewed as masculine in Western society include strength, courage, independence, leadership, dominance, and assertiveness.

There is Father Time, Father Christmas, Reverend Father and Lord thy father of us all (we’ll get to that in a bit)

 A father is the biological male gender who produced you. In the beginning, there was Adam. The almighty God created man in his likeness and it was good. He could have stopped there and there would have been no sin. He (notice the gender) could have just cloned Adam into a team full of Bruce, Hank, Dirk, Freddy and they could have entertained him with their manly comradery. He could have invented bars for them to hang out and boost about scores while drinking hops (instead of Apple juice). God could have reveled in their locker room humor, but there were no pin-ups?

Man, when used in singular (which is almost always) means a male. When it's used as a plural (eg. Man came from apes), it means people, regardless of gender. Interestingly, the word men never work this way, it can only ever mean males.

Misogynistic behavior refers to attitudes, actions, and beliefs that show hatred, contempt, or prejudice against women. It's a form of sexism that can manifest in various ways, including belittling, objectifying, and controlling women. Misogyny can also involve promoting harmful stereotypes and maintaining traditional gender roles that limit women's opportunities and agency. 

A father is a male parent, a man who has begotten a child. The term can also refer to a male ancestor, a man who originates or establishes something, or a term of respectful address for an elderly man or a priest. In a broader sense, ‘father’ can also denote someone who acts in a fatherly role, providing care, guidance, and support. 

There is also ‘Mother’s’ Day (the other participant in procreation). You only get 1 mother, but there may be a variety of fathers, depending on your mother’s breeding process. Your X and Y chromosomes are all simmered as the bun in the oven cooks for 9-months and you arrive as you.

The father hands out cigars to celebrated impregnating. The step-father takes over if the biological father splits. The grand-father can reap the rewards of his ancestry continuing.

The Lord's Prayer, also known as the ‘Our Father’, is a central Christian prayer. It's a model prayer taught by Jesus, used in almost every Christian tradition. While variations exist, the core prayer is generally understood to be: 

“Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name. Your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us today our daily bread. And forgive us our sins, as we forgive those who sin against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For the kingdom, the power and the glory are yours forever. Amen. “

The prayer is structured around addressing God the Father, asking for the sanctification of His name, the establishment of His kingdom, and His will being done. It also includes petitions for daily needs, forgiveness, protection from temptation, and acknowledging God's authority.


Happy Daddy’s Day to all who qualify. A title for a squirt.
