I do have five children. And if I knew that three of them would turn out to be murderers--I would certainly make sure that I was involved in their life to make sure to prevent that from happening. I wouldn't be absent, invisible, hoping to influence them through a book written long before they were ever born. Instead I would, as much as I do now, be involved in their lives and teach them love and compassion for other human beings. And I would do so DIRECTLY. I wouldn't expect them to get it from a book--that's just asking for trouble. Nor would I ask a friend of mine to do it. I would do it myself.
The whole tone of Church teaching in regard to woman is, to the last degree, contemptuous and degrading. - Elizabeth Cady Stanton
