Not surprised one bit. Shoulda seen the deafening silence when Matt Bowman announced in SS that speaking in tongues was common.

The reason I can't read or discuss this article is that it is written for pointy-headed academics, and their specialized language that I don't understand.

What does the article say? That Mormons have a pretty cool theological idea of a heavenly mother that fits certain feminist ideals?

There was nothing political on the first two pages.

Irigay said that without a feminine deity, women do not have a ideal to strive towards. And she said this in 1970s, while Mormons were believing in Heavenly Mother much earlier.

Full summary later...
