Women’s Religious Liberation From Mary Magdalene to Joan of Ark to the modern woman‚ women have come a long way‚ and many practices both subordinate and empower them. For centuries‚ women have been oppressed in religious texts “The New Testament of the bible‚ for example‚ urges women to be subordinate to their husbands…” (Pg. 246).

BIBLICAL FOUNDATION FOR DEVELOPING CONTEXTUAL THEOLOGY Introduction Christianity which we follow today may not exist if there were no contextual theology. We would all have to learn Hebrew‚ Greek‚ Aramaic and culture of Israel by compulsion and then try to fit into the religious practices like circumcision‚ Sabbath and Jerusalem.

Thomas Nichols Wendell Berry’s “Mad Farmer liberation Front” makes a strong argument for the simple life‚ preservation of nature‚ and individualism. Wendell Berry clearly states how Americans and people should live their lives. Berry’s points are valid and to the point; he believes that an independent person is a strong person.
