"The Asteroid Queen," Chapter II.
"Their females were nonsentient..." (p. 56)
Surely kzinti females are non-sapient, not non-sentient?
A kzinti Conservor of the Ancestral Past expounds:
"Who unsheathes claw against the officer
"Leaps at the throat of God." (p. 57)
This recalls Romans 13: 1-7.
Kzinti Patriarchs cannot forbid females to speak because their females cannot speak. However, 1 Corinthians 14: 33-35 expresses the Roidhunate Merseians' attitude to their females. So are Merseian females freer on Dennitza?

Kaor, Paul!
And St. Paul also exhorted husbands to love their wives as they do themselves. Too many cherry pick from the Apostle's letters to attack him or Christianity.
Recommended book: PAUL AMONG THE PEOPLE, by Sarah Ruden. The author, a Classics scholar, used to be your standard "liberal" believing all the anti-Paul slanders. Then Ruden decided to reread Paul against the background of Classical society, and suddenly the Apostle made sense to her!
Ad astra! Sean
