More on the special place of women in religion and the GOP...
"Woman is defective and accidental…misbegotten…a male gone awry…the result of some weakness if the [father's] generative power." St. Thomas Aquinas
"Any woman who acts in such a way that she cannot give birth to as many children as she is capable of, makes herself guilty of that many murders…" St. Augustine
"Let us set out womenfold on the road to goodness by teaching them…to display… submissiveness, to observe silence. Every woman should be overwhelmed with shame at the thought that she is a woman." St. Clement of Alexandria
"God created Adam lord of all living creatures, but Eve spoiled it all." Martin Luther
"Man is the image of God…whereas woman reflects the glory of man." New Testament, I Cor.11
"Let a woman learn in silence with all submissiveness. I permit no woman to teach or have authority over men; she is to keep silent. Yet women will be saved through bearing children." NT, I Tim. 2
"It seems to me that nearly every woman I know wants a man who knows how to love with authority…our family Airedale will come clear across the yard for one pat on the head. The average wife is like that. She will come across town, across the house, across the room, across to your point of view…to give you her love if you off her yours with some honest approval." Dr. C.W. Shedd, Presbyterian minister, 1968
