Because of Piper’s views on the second-class citizenship of women in the kingdom, I have pretty much dismissed him completely. I used to try to cull out the useful and edifying points of his theology and dismiss the nonsense, but it seems that his ministry and theology are increasingly “built around” male domination. Perhaps if I was male, I’d be better at compartmentalizing the “women need to put up with anything dished out to them” stuff, but being female, it makes it a little more difficult to integrate. I have been told by men I respect that “that’s just a secondary” consideration, but I can honestly say that I bet it’s a whole lot easier for it to be secondary to them because it doesn’t seek to harm or marginalize them.
