Canadian cogitations about politics, social issues, and science. Vituperation optional.
Religion is bad. Fundamentalist religion is even worse, as contact with the outside world and reality is even more tenuous. Education saved Carolyn Jessop’s life. That is the power of education; to gain perspective, to think critically and learn facts about the world we inhabit. Education is the antithesis of religion as enlightened people rarely fall victim to religion’s tattered stories and bogus wish-fulfillment. This clip is just an excerpt, see the entire interview here.

Have you heard of the Quiverfull movement? Although there are important differences between them, they share the same disdain for female education. For girls, the end results in both are more or less identical.

Yes, they are a ‘quaint’ bunch. They flourish because their particular brand of nonsense fits well with the patriarchal construction of our society…
From the wikipedia entry on the Quiverfail movement –
“Cheryl Lindsey Seelhoff, a former ardent Quiverfull adherent, mother by birth of eleven children, and former editor of Gentle Spirit Magazine, argues that the Quiverfull movement is one “in which women and children are routinely and systematically subordinated and subjugated by the men in their lives – fathers, husbands, older sons,. . .pastors, elders, leaders – as a matter of biblical principle.”[32] Seelhoff charges that Quiverful adherents “never talk about the victims of the movement, other than to distance themselves, to explain how it is that the victims are aberrations.“[33][34]
Domination and victim blaming. Woo. *sigh*
