Mother, Child and womb?
-
The divine Trinity - "Father, Son and Holy Spirit" - could also be known as "Mother, Child and Womb" or "Rock, Redeemer, Friend" at some Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) services under an action yesterday by the church's national assembly... One reason is that language limited to the Father and Son "has been used to support the idea that God is male and that men are superior to women," the panel said.

Changing the language isn't going to change the underlying reality. This is actually one of the things I dislike about religion: it tries to say that men were created first and that men are the creator (in the image of god) when it's perfectly obvious to anyone born from a woman that it's the other freakin' way around.

its true. men are physically superior, they also push the envelope further than women. Allmost all of the great explorers have been male for example. Same goes for artists, writers, chefs, etc etc etc. OK there are exceptional women, but for the most part, a woman is happy with the status quo, just wants to do the same thing. Men however are quickly dissatisfied, and want to see and know more. Nunc est bibendum

That's a good point. For example, someone suggested "civil union" instead of "gay marriage", but it doesn't change the underlying reality that two people of the same sex are living together. And who cares anyway?

"Rock, Redeemer, Friend"
For some strange reason the movie Doom popped into my head when I first read that, except that the Redeemer is in Unreal Tournament. The brain is a pretty neat thing, although a little buggy at times... :)

How about the idea that the reason most of the worlds "advances" are performed my men is that, with the preconception that they are superior to women, they have deliberately suppressed any woman who dares to impose on male superiority? There are many instances, some of which recorded, where any development, particularily intellectually, by a female has been completely disregarded by their male "superiours".

You're alive aren't you? But no, seriously, that is part of my point. The women's liberation appears to me to be just an attempt to pacify those that are not happy with the distribution of credit. I shall not, however, start quoting and referring. To do so would put me in a more awkward position than I would want. I have known a number of women who are more than capable than their male "conterparts" - if I may use such a term. We all hear about women being passed over for promotion in business. It's easy for us (men) to just ignore this and say they are playing the sexism card - but it still happens. Anyway, I only have half a chomosone on the twenty-third pair, so what do I know :)
