[Vision2020] Interfaith Panel Thurs. May 15

[Sue Hovey]

Are you asking me?  My complaint regarding gender representation, was, in the first place incorrect, but in the second, not an obsession, simply a comment on a situation that happens more often than not when groups such as these are generated.  Women continue to be underrepresented in the areas that deal with policy issues; whether they be religious, political, or cultural.  So it does matter when we want to reach solutions that will accommodate everyone.

  Why are some people so obsessed with a person's gender, race, religion, and sexual orientation? Does it matter?

  Best Regards,

      Chris Vaughn, representing the Bahai community, is also a woman.

        OOPS.  I didn't see Kayle's name.  Sorry for the comment.  But even so, 1 of 8 isn't all that representative.  Trinity Baptist, where I used to attend has never chosen to involve itself in any local Interfaith efforts.  The congregation perceives that kind of involvement as a dilution of Baptist tenets.

          Kayle Rice is the female pastor of the UU . . . what saddens me, though, is the decision of conservative Christian churches to not involve themselves in this.

            It looks interesting--too bad, though, women on the Palouse must be thought not to have any thoughts that would be valued in this setting.
