A Woman Confronts Her Church.

Drawing on experience as a teacher in the Catholic school system, former nun and outspoken advocate on women's equality Joanna Manning powerfully articulates how the Pope's views on women are a threat to the well-being of all women.


Review: Manning's experience as a teacher in the Catholic School system made her intimately aware of how church policies affect her students, both the boys and the girls. And beyond the classroom she watched her church practice growing hypocrisy on the world stage.

On one hand it issued general affirmations of universal human rights. On the other it sought alliances with repressive Muslim regimes to fight legal equality for women around the globe. Manning traces the post-Vatican II retrenchment for defense of a separate and unequal potential for each sex. She examines the flimsy theological excuses why only males bear the likeness of Christ, why only they can speak for the Lord, why this potential is determined by biology rather than spirit, and why all this is eternally God's will.

Despite insults from the clergy, both to herself and to her students, she continues teaching what she regards as the real message of her Catholic faith, that love means equal regard between souls.
