When you hear the words “Fighting Irish”, what comes to mind? Do you imagine a leprechaun fighting to protect his gold or even Conor Mcgregor fighting Floyd Mayweather. What ever comes to mind, the Fighting Irish is the mascot of one of the greatest colleges in the world-Notre Dame. The year was 1842 when the university of Notre Dame was founded on 1,250 acres of land in Indiana by Edward Sorin. Edward Sorin was a very religious man, so when he established Notre Dame he decided to make a catholic school. And ever since the first days of school to now Notre Dame has taken pride in third catholic beliefs. Notre Dame is a well know college because people can remember them for three reasons. First are the strict demands and requirements to be able to get into Notre Dame. Second is because Notre Dame is home to one of the best college football team in the world. Lastly is because of Notre Dame’s beautiful campus.…
Gonzalez claims that Gnostics gave women power that they did not have in regular society because Gnostics were focused primarily on the spirit of Christ and considered his body to be unimportant. As a result, they did not value the physical differences between men and women and granted women more power in the church. As a response to Gnosticism granting women more rights, according to Gonzalez, Christianity began to restrict women’s role in the church. As a result, women during the second century had a noticeably diminished role then they had previously held in the first century (Gonzalez 73). Therefore, whether it is in the differential treatment and enforcement of laws for enslaved Israelites or in the role of women in the church, females in the early church were treated as subservient and had their rights unfairly limited when compared to their male counterparts in both early Judaism and…

To begin with, Saint Jerome was a Saint, a Scripture scholar, a priest, a monk, and a writer. He was also known as the Doctor of the church. Saint Jerome meets the definition of church father because he had translated the Bible from Hebrew into Latin which had come to be known as the Vulgate. His translation of the Bible was fortunately accepted by the Church. The Council of Trent asked for a new edition of the Vulgate that was corrected in 1592. They had declared it the authentic text to be used in the Church. St Jerome used his pen to write about his love for God and his son Jesus Christ, but he had also used it for sarcasm when something triggered his anger. Although he had a bad temper, he was a brilliant scholar and he wrote many commentaries which inspire many lives today. Most monks, bishops, and popes consulted with him. St. Augustine had once told him (August 28) "What Jerome is ignorant of, no mortal has ever known." Meaning St Jerome was a very intelligent student and knew almost about anything, that no regular person would normally acknowledge.…
The “image of God” that R.R. discusses is the result of many factors, beginning with the Greek concept of “logos”, attributed to men as being the characteristic of rationality. Because rationality was only a trait granted to men at the time, it was assumed that God was a male figure, seeing as Jesus was a man. R.R. claims that this is derived from Aristotelian biology, which demeans women to a level less than human. Although even the Church has since discredited this ancient theory, Christology remains the patriarchal chain of command in the Church. R.R. lists some more gender-inclusive aspects of Christology, like an androgynous God, Jesus’ “ben Adam” title which involved male and female characteristics, and Jesus’ close relationship with women that lasted through to his death. She identifies two types of Christianity, patriarchal and mystical/millennialist, which both work off of the assumption of patriarchy’s legitimacy. R.R. argues that Christology must be recast to integrate modern, egalitarian anthropological beliefs, and a perception of Jesus as the paradigm for a collective Church.…
Reading the Bible from a feminist perspective is hindered by what Letty M. Russell interprets as the “hit parade of authority” (Russell, 138). This authority is that the Bible is understood to be the Word of God. Understanding its authority in this way enables readers to accept biblical contradictory, sexism, and racism (Russell, 140). More often than not, this authority obstructs feminist interpretations. Russell suggests that a feminist model of authority is inclusive in allowing feminist interpretation.…
