There are several women news anchors that I really enjoy listening to because of their "female perspectives," their intellect, and their probative questioning. Your article was very interesting. I must point out something: you stereotyped men as cruel and brutish while you stereotyped women as tender pillars of virtue. A mother is just as likely to be cruel to her children as are men.

Also some of your understanding that you were indoctrinated with at your denominational church was very much contrary to the teachings of Jesus - which later in your writing you emphasized correctly. So, I am not disagreeing with a lot of what you say.

Now, no one has ever seen God the Father, but the man, Jesus, is "the radiance of God’s glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word..." We must not measure God, Jesus, and the Bible by looking at people. The Bible encourages us on whom we should fix our eyes - it's certainly not people.
