Speaking of the body's pain: Harriet Wilson's 'Our Nig.' (Women's Culture Issue)

In recent years a number of religious thinkers have begun to speak of Mary as the feminine face of God.

But to speak of a feminine dimension of a masculine God is to transfer to infinite, holy mystery the limitations that belong to the created world.

While it is legitimate to speak of God in male terms--men also being made in the image of God--the exclusive use of male images is a distortion and leads almost to idolatry and serves to justify women's subordination.

Don't make Mary the feminine face of God
