Loved or Feared?

Abraham the father !! Even though he was old he was ordered to have at least two sons with Sarah. Ishmael and Isaac, Sarah was afraid becuase of her old age. The firt thing that came up in my mind was that generatons have changed the number of children that women have. it has decreased intensly. Most of today's generation's grandfathers come from a family of 10 to 15 children, or even more. Now, more than 3 is a lot. My mother comes from a family of 5 children and my father from a family of also 5 children. My grandmother has 5 siblings and my grandfather has 12 siblings. I have one brother and that's it. Why is that so? There are many factors that contribute to this results.
Women are today more self sufficient. They have gained the control of their lifes and are independant of the men. They are no longer housewifes, they focuse on their jobs and on many other things, they are busy. Women don't live for men anymore. Therefore having more than 2 children is too much for thair daily busy life! Another factor is that anticonceptives are more available today, and people are more aware of the risks it has not to use them. Life today is so fast, full of things to do that there is no time to raise many children.

The more I read the Bilble the more similar it is to greek mythology. the same concepts. A god tells the mortals what tehy should do and if they don't do it then thye would be punished. the Bilble for me is just like anyother book, it irritated me that people worship it and base their actions on the Bible. It is very fictional and non real. The values that God supposly has are contradicted in the Bible. I feel that in the Bilbe you are supposed to fear him because he can punish you, and God is supposed to be love. A self that is the sinonim of love is not supposed to destroy and less be feared.
