That would actually be a better title for another post I want to write, but not right now. Right now, what I need (I think) are two people, one who believes particularly strongly in the complementarian/patriarchal mode of women in the church and one who believes in the egalitarian model because I have questions for each of them that, to my mind, each "side" has entirely failed to address.
But I dunno who to ask, dangit.

I assume you've perused these websites :
http://www.cbmw.org (complementarian)
http://www.cbeinternational.org (egalitarian)
I would also assume that there are forums around dedicated to supporting both sides but I haven't been able to find them.
Just an FYI - The patriarchy movement as espoused by people like Doug Lancaster and Phil Lancaster goes way beyond what most complementarians would consider biblical.
Blessings!

Oops - Doug Wilson, not Doug Lancaster.

I've read books, scoured Web sites, torn through articles and journals for the last several years. This time, I want to engage a person, someone with whom I can dialogue and with whom I can discuss. It's one thing to scribble notes in a margin and another thing entirely to ask questions of someone who can respond.
Thanks, though. I always appreciate your input.
Okay, Q
Why don't we arrange such a conversation. Let's find folks who are educated, well spoken, and cordial who can sit around a table and talk. I think I know exactly what you want.
I am serious about finding that round table.
I think the round table is a great idea. Getting a group of educated, well-spoken and cordial people together would be cool. Can I still come? ^_~
Q
We could try to do this at Zoe if you can come. Is it impossible?
If not, its something to shoot for at another time, but not too long from now. I remember many times wanting, like you to sit down with folks and just give and take on this topic--without fear.The fear for me is long gone, but the passion to learn remains.
I really won't be able to make it. I didn't realize how much it would conflict with class when I was considering it. It's just not possible this year as much as I wish it were.
I didn't read that part on your response earlier regarding the class---sorry I brought it up! Now--I really want to think about this discussion. Am I anywhere near right that you want to talk with someone who isn't going to hold any questions against you?Someone who has studied this broadly and can give substanial scriptural and theological perspectives?
