The patriarchy has run out of ideas - but everyone else has lots of them! Instead of fight or flight, let’s tend or mend. Instead of investing in wars, let’s invest in peace. Instead of harnessing fear, let’s harness love. Snowflake? You bet. And expect an avalanche in November.

Criticizing the patriarchy is not attacking men! I have known very patriarchal women and very feminist men. The patriarchy itself is simply a worldview, ultimately benefit neither gender because of its imbalance and injustice.

Why is it attacking men to point out that a world where female voices are routinely dismissed is a world that’s essentially unbalanced?

If you want peace prepare for war

If you prepare for war beyond what's necessary, then certain interests have a vested interest in "moving their product." And if you keep cutting money for humanitarian and diplomatic efforts that actually create peace, then you will always need more preparations for war.

Are you about feminism or about promoting God’s word? As a woman, I doubt seriously if you’re remotely informed about what is or is not exhausted by patriarchs. As a leader, you must first understand your own path. And I’m pretty sure feminism conflicts w/ God’s word; no?

Like the platitudes and they are easy to put out there. How about some specifics on getting there.

Instead of spending more $ on military & cutting huge amounts from humanitarian diplomatic efforts that actually aid peace, it could be the other way around. Instead of building more prisons we could help our children. Instead of govt. serving its donors it could serve its people

Meditate, pray, live for God. But moral outrage isn’t born of anger, It’s born of love. And Jesus did turn over the table of the money changers.A woman expressing passionate outrage at injustice doesn’t mean she is angry; it simply means she isn’t brain-dead.
