    Outcry as clergy say calling God 'He' or 'Lord' encourages wife-beating

    It is REALLY important to read things carefully. No one in the report said calling God male enables abusers what the report said was Further Of course hearing sermons and comments which seem to make God only male will have this kind of effect. That is why it is important for Christians...

    Having spent time as an Elder and Minister in the Community of Christ (formerly RLDS) I have to say you're actually wrong. Most non-LDS Mormons are quite aware of LDS teachings. Kiwimac

    Muslim Inventions : How they changed the world
