Hi everyone, Someone just forwarded me the following link, which is to an article called
Why Are Some American Christians So Bloodthirsty? Understanding Pro-war Christians' Indifference to Civilian Deaths by Dr. Teresa Whitehurst http://www.antiwar.com/orig/whitehurst.php?articleid=3842 Whitehurst is a clinical psychologist and the author of Jesus on Parenting, (Baker Books, 9/2004). She teaches parenting workshops, works on leadership research, and writes articles about Christ-centered perspectives on current issues. She grew up in an evangelical Christian family/church but has very definitely feminist perspectives on life. I am really impressed. The URL for her site is http://www.jesusonthefamily.org/ It contains articles including: Mayday, Mayday! Why every American should worry about the "culture war" against gay marriage...and gay people As I Lay Crying: On feeling what no patriotic American is supposed to feel The Value of One Life: Keeping up appearances and leaving hostages to the wolves Single Mothers have Faith! Female Submission (she doesn't think it's actually Jesus' understanding of marriage relationships) Well worth a visit and a read.
