Woman—fully empowered by God

From the March 2004 issue of The Christian Science Journal


Are you tempted to groan at the thought of yet another article on women? Some men I know might ask, What about an article on men for a change? And the quick retort to that is, You've been reading about women for 25 years—but we've been man-focused for 5,000 years, plus or minus a few.

Let's not focus on "evening the score" but on working together.

This article isn't about "evening the score," though, nor is it really about women and men, or women versus men. When one talks about human rights, about equality for women, ending racism, changing a patriarchal system, eliminating discrimination of all kinds—one is actually addressing a highly significant spiritual issue that has been at the heart of Christianity from the beginning.
