As for your general...Well I've tried asking again. As for your general complaint about feminism being vague.... That's actually would be a defense in a discipline case. A church is obligated to clearly articulate and define a doctrine which is being declared heretical. So if they are going to argue that "feminism" is a heresy then failure to define it carefully means they aren't entitled to convict. <BR/><BR/>As for them being mean to you because you don't support patriarchy, there isn't much I can say. Hamas has managed to get Christian woman to start wearing Islamic veils using the same kind of social pressure. There is no no natural stopping point and good luck on fighting the battle at whatever point you are willing to fight it.CD-Hosthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00304535091189153224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-373425720288771023.post-43966077900932139792007-07-02T22:03:00.000-06:002007-07-02T22:03:00.000-06:00I think you might have to ask him again if this ap...I think you might have to ask him again if this applies to the membership when it comes to "feminism" and father-rule?<BR/><BR/>Is there room for disagreement on what father-rule means and how that is to be applied within the family? I happy to be, for lack of a better word, complementarian but I do not agree with how a lot of people teach the concept of "father-rule". <BR/><BR/>The emphasis, as Jesus so clearly put it, was on serving and not authority. <BR/><BR/>It seems that even if a person like me disagrees with his own definition of what that means even if they agree with him concerning women in the church, they are considered to be feminists and seemingly worthy of church discipline.<BR/><BR/>It is a scary thing to have such a formless and void definition of what constitutes a "feminist" in his eyes. It appears his definition is anyone who disagrees with him.<BR/><BR/>At least that is what my own personal experience shows me.Corriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13771878099332439981noreply@blogger.com
