[Faith-talk] Blindness and church

[Beth]

Yes, you could say so.  I don't like the lesser roles that women have
to play in that church as well.  It's like this: if my daughter came
up to me and said, "Mommy, why can't I go up and speak at church?"
I'll have to tell her because she's female.  But if I were in some
other church, a Protestant or otherwise female-friendly church, the
same daughter would actually get to realize her dreams.
