| Christianity, Patriarchy and Abuse: A Feminist Critique by Pilgrim Press absolutely a must read for feminist christians |
| I read this book in college (in the 1990's) and it has informed my thinking on the topic more than any other single book of theology. |
| Christianity, Patriarchy and Abuse: A Feminist Critique by Pilgrim Press challenging to the core. |
| This volume mounts a sustained and impassioned critique of Christian symbols that legitimate the vicitimization of women. Though the essays are all written by Christian theologians, they do not flinch from examining any aspect of Christian doctrine, nor from posing the question of whether Christianity is still an ethically viable religion. A particular strength of the book is that the authors do not all come down in the same place on the question of suffering, allowing an appropriate sense of complexity to bear on a particularly difficult issue. |
| Christianity, Patriarchy and Abuse: A Feminist Critique by Pilgrim Press Book Description |
| Are patriarchy and the Christian faith so inextricably linked that the very theology glorifies violence, suffering, and sacrifice? Is it possible to be feminist and retain some attachment to the Christian tradition? Contributors to this classic address these questions from the perspectives of theology, history, ethics, and pastoral psychology. |
