With many people having different school of thought on this DNA saga, I don't think fathers conducting a DNA on their children is an attack on women.
I used to have the view that it is insulting on wives and shows mistrust but come to think of it, if you are clean as you claim, then what's the worry for?
It is only Nigerian politicians that complain when asked for accountability. Fathers conducting DNA on the children their wives bore for them is like demanding accountability on the women and there's nothing wrong with it; in fact, I recommend that DNA test result should be presented to fathers alongside birth certificate at birth.
Holding the DNA test result is like holding your marriage certificate! You know you're married but yet, you are given a certificate!
The issue of infidelity is not gender or country based; although it is said that Nigeria has the highest rate of paternity fraud worldwide after Jamaica that tops the chart! The issue of infidelity is individuals-based. If men were to bare children I don't think they will do any better than what the women are doing. Many people stay comfortable in their messy lifestyles so long as they don't get caught.
As a believer in Christ Jesus and the teachings of the Bible, I can categorical say that, the problem of infidelity is an issue of a dead conscience and lack of the fear of God! Religion is different from "fear of God"!
The corruption in our country has eaten deep into every aspect of our lives that even people of religion now believe they can please God by just gathering in their places of worship and carry out their religious activities even though they don't live aright.
As a Christian with sufficient knowledge of scriptures I know that immortality and Christianity has nothing in common.
It is written;
2 Timothy 2:19 English Standard Version 2016 (ESV)
But God's firm foundation stands, bearing this seal: “The Lord knows those who are his,” and, “Let everyone who names the name of the Lord depart from iniquity.”
If you're in Christ and are scared of DNA you need to repent! If you clamour for DNA yet cannot live above sexual immorality, you're not different from the paternity fraudster!
