Beck
An online rebuttal to Beck's talk:
http://www.sltrib.com/ci_7512832 From the article: The rebuttal includes these declarations: * Fathers as well as mothers, men as well as women, are called to nurture. * Motherhood and sisterhood cannot be reduced to the performance of narrowly prescribed tasks, but emerge from who we know ourselves to be. * Cleanliness depends on access to resources and has more to do with priorities than purity of heart. * Unfortunately, women and girls still perform the bulk of the world's low-paid and unpaid labor, including housework - often at the expense of their own education, leadership, creativity, health, and well-being. We reject teachings that encourage women to shoulder ultimate responsibility for every aspect of child-rearing and family life, and to take on shame and guilt when things do not go according to plan. * We reverence the responsibility to choose how, when, and whether we become parents.

We are putting Boyd in charge of what happens to them.

You know they are on the right track when they piss off Indy and Tex.
Bravo to those women for speaking their mind. I'd hate to be in a church where people weren't allowed to say they disagreed with a fundie non-doctrinal talk. |

This is why men get rebuked in priesthood meeting, but the women get fawned over in the general women's meetings.
Women can't take it, especially from other women.
