Is there organized religion after patriarchy? pt. 2

After Patriarchy: Feminist Transformations of the World Religions, edited by Paula M. Cooey, William R. Eakin, & Jay B. McDaniel At this point in my reading of this book I got bored with the apologists for the big, irritatingly misogynistic organized religions — so I jumped a few articles ahead, to the two chapters which…

The Genghis Khan Exhibition at the Tech (3 of 3)

The other really nice display on a 3-dimensional model was of a 19th-20th century shaman in full regalia. I was inordinately delighted by this (much to the continued amusement of my companions), excitedly pointing out the large, flat, bodhran-like drum (unfortunately unpainted with helpful symbols, which made me wonder if it had actually been used…

The “Goddess Array” in Wolf’s Vagina: A New Biography, pt. 3

Literarily denuded! :)

So I’m thinking about books and research, as I’m driving back home from turning in yet another handful of library books, several of which were brought to me via the courtesy of Interlibrary Loan — a true lifesaver for me, in regards to getting some of the less well-known works which I’m reading for either…
LOL! and they were both great fun, Lou! :)
She did it, too! (Both the 50 new things *and* the happyColliedance!)
Thank you so much, Bob & Rick! Why save any for next year, though, when they’re such a delightful renewable resource? Also: thank goodness we didn’t have to eat the minstrels! :)
And there was much rejoicing!!!!
Congrats!
Hm. Maybe you should save some for next year? Nyahhhh…
