The description was too exact. Conservative Christian ideology upholds a hierarchy that runs from God to Christ to man to wife. Any alternative serves a spirit of rebellion and unnatural order. This hierarchy is derived from the letters that came part of the Christian Bible. No secular white New Zealander would claim to think this way, even if they otherwise claimed to be postfeminist.<BR/><BR/> One of the few things that makes nervous me about interfaith would be the emergence of a conservative values alliance between religious groups that are currently suspicious of each other.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7515713317068251331.post-24251167851166987432008-03-17T13:00:00.000+13:002008-03-17T13:00:00.000+13:00no, she didn't give me any reason at all. i thoug...no, she didn't give me any reason at all. i thought she might have talked about "family values", or "breakdown of the family", but she didn't go in that direction.<BR/><BR/>the reason why i say it was naughty of me to ask her religion is because i know damn well that there are plenty of muslims who hold this view, as do some members of other religious groups too. but i can only imagine it's a faith-based position, cos there didn't seem to be any underlying logic to what she was saying.stargazerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00430290445762377335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7515713317068251331.post-76162919932424000862008-03-17T12:50:00.000+13:002008-03-17T12:50:00.000+13:00How bizarre that this woman didn't think a fellow ...How bizarre that this woman didn't think a fellow XXer should be in charge? Did she give any reason at all, other than that men should be in the leadership roles? Sounds like an interesting person to talk to, but frustrating I guess!<BR/><BR/>I hope Sue's member's bill passes. If it does there will be a lot of work to do on education and enforcement. When I was getting my hair cut a few weeks ago the hairdresser told me that they are supposed to have breaks but are often told they have to sign that they had their break when they haven't. This was a major hairdressing chain, not a little operation either.Juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08977150346842277994noreply@blogger.com
