Indeed it can, according to Mike Adams, in his article entitled Bluer than Blue. He boldly states, "Christianity ended slavery and it ended segregation. It is even powerful enough to end feminist anger and reverse the decline in female happiness."
Interesting in reading Bluer than Blue, Adams relates a portion of a conversation he overhears between a sociology student and her professor, just as he was "coincidentally" (yeah) reading the article that prompted his own post. Read some snippets:
“I never really knew, until I took your course, that marriage was oppressive in the sense that it benefits men more than women.”
“I never really considered the fact that a wedding dress is an expression of latent heterosexism.”
“I never really considered the impact of large expensive weddings on the workers who, for example, make wedding dresses. I had never known about the wedding industrial complex as a form of capitalist exploitation.” [excerpt from Mike Adams, Bluer than Blue]
Shocking? It was, and it wasn't to me. Seriously, folks. In a society filled with continual updating of politically correct words and phrases we can use, I am rarely surprised at anything the liberally socialistic-controlled education system dishes up to our impressionable children. However, as I read Adams' article I couldn't help but ponder the conversations I've read in forums with ladies all across the country of late. These ladies are just moms and grandmothers who want the best for...get this...their children and grandchildren. Some ladies work, many do not. But they have a common bond to see our government get out of the way of our freedom of speech, religion, education, the pursuit of happiness. They see themselves as patriots, and Christian ones at that, seeking to build a better America.
Another thing that came to mind as I read Mike Adams' article regarding the unhappiness of women as a result of the feminist movement, was Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary's degree programs for women. These programs are sometimes criticized for their focus on homemaking skills. Yet, as I listen to Dr. Dorothy Patterson and Dr. Terri Stovall, Dean Women's Programs, share their thoughts at this site, I cannot help but believe that women are being given far more than a brownie recipe to combat the world view of destroying the traditional home as we know it. Click [HERE] and see if you agree. If programs like these at Southwestern were used to teach minister's wives and women throughout all our Southern Baptist seminaries, we might have women's ministries in churches that could curb the flow of women at abortion clinics and unhappy feminists living lives in confusion and loneliness. Indeed, some of the most relaxed forms of gospel sharing by our missionaries is done through the hands-on work of missionary wives and women teaching crafts, cooking, hygiene and homemaking skills to women and children in foreign countries.
Truth be told, we need women more than ever. We need women to help change the course of the marxist attack on traditional family today via sociological education women are receiving in colleges across America such as Mike Adams related above. Happy women make happy homes. Adams article may be closer to understanding the old addage, "if mama ain't happy, ain't nobody happy", better than any man today. selahV
