Baptist seminary launching homemaking program
And, Daisy, did you hear about what they did a couple of months ago? Fired all their female professors, except for the ones in the women's programs. Because women are not supposed to teach men.
Yeah. I'm with you on the righteous fury.
Do you want some of my plans bon? I have been consistently overbooking for weeks now. In addition to the above list, Neko Case and Rufus Wainright are at Nokia, I want to see Bourne, I'd like to have coffee with ex-roomie, finish my dress and visit a new fabric shop. I also can't remember if I told anyone I'd hang with them this weekend.
58 in New York?? No fair, it's still 85 and icky here! Which is better than 102 and icky, but still!
Huh, NY is 4 degrees cooler than Boston.
three hours on "the value of a child,"
Depends on mass and volume. Also, can it tap dance?
and three hours on the "biblical model for the home and family."
Presumably with concubines?
Actually, I think more colleges should offer courses about all the household things we're still assuming people learn from their mothers, but possibly not for course credit, and for both genders.
Two nights ago, I took a damp kitchen towel and rubbed it over the carpet. Between the living room and the dining room, I harvested a full plastic grocery bag full of black cat hair. So, the vacumn cleaner is definitely not working on the hair front.
Hey, if you enroll with that seminary, you could get credit hours for that
Gud beat me to it. I think the idea of college course credit is insulting. I think cooking, cleaning, and some basic sewing are basic survival skills. and while some people don't learn it until later in life - it is not college level work. I'm ignoring the whole sexist thing - that's just obvious.

Yeah. It kinda seems like I'm hearing the volume on misogyny being turned up. One of our paper's columnists had a freakout over teh churches being overrun with the wimmins. Plus all the "Edwards is such a girl" crap as insult.
My brain wants to connect it with post-9/11 pro-war stuff, but I don't have the space or time right now to flesh that out.
Jesse or bon - holler if you want help. It may be my only chance to get out of the house and be around non-family other adults.

It's being turned up big time in Southern Baptist circles. It's the main reason I left the Baptist church close to 20 years ago and it's much worse now.

When you do, let me know. I'd like to hear what you think.

I think it may be more to get the "faithful" riled up over the possibility of Hilary Clinton presidency.
