  A contributor to Idealist.org's August 1 article, "Women Criticize Vatican Document on Feminism" states that "no religion is a great friend of women. " This is in response to the Vatican's statements concerning feminism's role in the decline of the traditional family and family value system.
Do you agree with this statement? I have to admit that I have very conflicted feelings on this issue (just got married at a catholic church). I think some religions could be pals of the gals, but I don't know enough to say which ones. Thoughts? Sometimes I think that my Catholic upbringing has transferred and transformed itself into a belief in the principle of Karma, but I'm just not willing to admit it and research the whole thing. How do my fellow IHM/CHS-ers feel?
