The Role of Women in The Church
by Frank Daniels.
"I Permit Not a Woman..." To Remain
Shackled by Robert H. Rowland
This a book published on the Freedom's
Ring
website. It deals "with the practices of the Churches of Christ,...
many of the same basic arguments will be found in some form in most
other churches which still keep women in subjection to the men of the
church. It will deal with those which forbid women to participate or
limit their participation in the specific traditional male roles in the
public life of the church." (quote from book)

INTERNATIONAL REPORTS ON VIOLENCE AND ATROCITIES
AGAINST WOMEN AND GIRLS
In America,
between 1987 and 1991, females
experienced over 10 times as many incidents of violence by an intimate
than did males (fact from ABA Commission on Domestic Violence) Go to THIS
PAGE,

for many hotlines and
other phone numbers
for help.
HOWEVER, violence
and atrocities against
women and girls is currently a worldwide epidemic.
Religion (including
those who will quote from the Bible or Koran), 'honor' or
manhood,
racism, and ethnic warfare or 'cleansing', are the rational often used
for this violence.
According to Amnesty
International reports,
violence and atrocities against women and girls is currently a
worldwide epidemic. Religion, 'honor' or 'manhood', racism, and ethnic
'cleansing', are the rationales often used for this violence. War
crimes against the women have also become far too common amongst warring nations or tribes.
