Savannah: “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.”

Actually, Savannah, I wish I could cut and paste your above words on Hannah’s blog. They are very good. They get to the point and are not inflamatory (am I spelling that right? I’m a lousy speller) like mine so are not so easily dismissed.
But they are your words and belong to you. So my secondary wish would be for you to go to Hannah’s site (click on her name) and post them yourself since you are the author of them.
