false 3464030 2 A journalist's investigation of a Christian Right movement in which women put their fertility in the service of a patriarchal culture war<BR><BR>Fundamentalist Christianity may lose some access to power in the next election, but it has long-term plans. In this fascinating look at the new generation of fundamentalist Christian women, journalist Kathryn Joyce introduces us to the world of the patriarchy movement and Quiverfull families. Here, in direct and conscious opposition to feminist calls for marital equity, women live within stringently enforced doctrines of wifely submission and male headship. Instead of raising independent daughters, these Christians advocate a return to keeping daughters at home—and out of college—until their marriage to a suitor approved by Dad. To counter reproductive rights, they eschew all contraception in favor of the Quiverfull philosophy of letting God give them as many children as possible—families of twelve and more children that will, they hope, enable them to win the religious and culture wars through demographic means.<BR><BR>Quiverfull is a fascinating examination of the twenty-first-century women and men who proclaim self-sacrifice and submission as model virtues of womanhood—and as warfare on behalf of Christ. 3505315 1 3 2009 Quiverfull: Inside the Christian Patriarchy Movement total:91|5:22|4:41|3:26|2:1|1:1| 91 355 305 38 3 3 false false Fri Apr 24 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Mon Apr 20 16:55:05 -0700 2009 Fri Apr 24 13:38:42 -0700 2009
