					<description>Powerful writing! I'm proud to be your kid... 

You always taught me that if women were the rulers, the conquerors, the emperors, the tyrants, the presidents, the world would be a different place. 

I wonder how many fewer Iraqis would have died, were Laura Bush president. 

I wonder how many more children would know how to read, and have enough food to eat, if Laura Bush were president.

We've talked about this before, but if Jesus had been married, is our conception of religion not fully and completely archaic. Do we still believe that women are inconsequential in the 'men's world'?

We talked about the fact that the women in the bible are prostitutes and mothers... What if Christ were married? He did have a brother, and his brother must have been married, no?

Why isn't it possible that Christ, God created in the image of human beings, loved someone with a human's heart? And why are those women left out of the story of our religion? 

I, for one, am excited to read your book:)...

I love having a mother who can rant so eloquently... I'm learning!</description>
