Smash that pastorarchy
Calicodreamin6 May 2021
The Jung/Shannon storyline was the strongest, with funny moments and re-igniting the unrequited love I've come to enjoy. Janet trying to impress her woke friends was kind of annoying. Appa stealing his neighbors wifi didnt have the classic comedy that Appas character usually brings.

Thy Neighbour's Wifi (#3.4)

Warning: Spoilers
The wifi story was really fun. Appa was hilarious as always. The church story was alright but somehow it was annoying that Janet felt pressured by other people to speak against the bible. It is true that it is misogynist and wrong but it would have been different if she did it because she wanted to not because of some outsiders. Looks like Sharon will soon go for Jung, we'll see how it will go.

Disappointed with this episode
redjar-507582 January 2020
I really love this tv show but I felt this episode was lazily made. The verses that come under fire in this episode (1 Timothy 2) are completely misrepresented. Those verses aren't "misogynistic" or contain "hate speech" they are just taken completely out of context. When reading the Bible you cannot interpret verses as though they were written today. The New Testament was written in Greek and not every word has a perfect translation into modern English. If you want to know what something means you must take a deeper look into a few things. Who was this addressed to? Why would this be something that those people need to know? What are the exact Greek words used to write this and what are their exact definitions? For example there are many words in Greek that have multiple meanings but can only be translated to one English word, that doesn't give the whole meaning. The verses under attack, are advice to a certain early church, in this city the biggest religion is one that worships a goddess and has priestesses. The people in the city are assuming that this religion known as The Way must also be taken over by women. So when Paul says "I do not permit a woman to teach or to assume authority over a man" he is saying do not allow these people to take over. The Greek word that is translated into authority literally means to forcefully take power over, like by means of battle. The other parts of this verse are also easily explained by a little research, we must stop being lazy and actually find the meaning in the Bible.

Too much wokeness. The show is going downwards with the political agenda and lecturing.

Church and Wifi
BoulosSoueileh17 March 2023
Warning: Spoilers
Church and Wifi are two different stories that happened in this episode, while one was fun the other one was disturbing. The wifi part was good, even when it comes to shannon and Jung story, the driven moments, the writing and interaction were good but let's make this story faster, it's now rolling for 3 seasons.

And now let's talk about the Bible, some people will be angry reading this, but you can't take part of the sentence and use it, you have to read the other part of the sentence, woman must be submitted to her husband, means if she want to ask she ask her husband. But we are in a advanced society, she can ask anyone for help but it's better to ask your family. Next, 2023 and we can't watch a movie or series mentioning woman and woman rights, they know and we know but please stop, it's becoming clichee. And Finally I hope everyone who read the Bible or At least go through to the other part of the episode where the bibble talk about love and beauty. Don't be ignorant kids and dumb teenager, listen to the Bible, and listen to your minds, I know it's an old religious book but Jesus had a mother and he appreciated her greatness so going this way and writing this part was bad and Lam*.
