tee-hee

I wonder if a culturally relevant, edgy Christian feminist magazine (suitable for men and women) is what our previous complementarian conservative evangelical pastor had in mind when he gave David a “word” that he’d be in publishing someday. ;)
Cuz it just occurred to me how FANTASTIC such a ‘zine could be.

    brilliant! i would read it. hell, i would write for it!

    oh I would insist on it myste.

    taking everything we ever heard in complimentarianism and addressing it from an egalitarian/feminist perspective would give us enough fodder for a couple years at least. hehe

    This would be awesome… can I write for it too?

    And Mak… I am sure that we would hear new things in the next few year from the complimentarianism/fundamentalism camp that will us new fodder after the first couple of years!

    aint that the truth Dave.

    of course you can write for it - - anyone can, since it’s in my imagination I can edit it however I want and no one would know…oooo…. ;)

    I just found your blog and I LOVE it!

    A Christian feminist zine sounds PERFECT! I would totally buy it - and display it prominently at my house for friends who think that they two are mutally exclusive to see!

    That would be great!! Don’t tell my dad though a man who believes the feminist movement is responsible for all the ills of our society…blah, blah. I usually tune him out at this point:)

    hehe…my parents are a bit more on the “conservative” end WRT feminism as well

    does that mean you can’t be a feminist and complimentarian? ;)

  15. Mak — June 26, 2007 #

    hmmmm…good question. I don’t know any but I suppose, in theory, it would be possible.

  16. Erin — June 26, 2007 #

    Paul - when you figure that out will you write about it? ;-)

  17. Paul — June 27, 2007 #
