The
short answer is "yes" you can
reconcile your christianity
with feminism. The longer answer--which
I don't have--is how to go about
doing this. There are many people
out there who have successfully
done it. The best example that
I know of is Frances Kissling
who is the president of Catholics
for a Free Choice. She does
a great job of explaining how
it's not necessarily the bible
or Catholic Doctrine that is
anti-equality, but those who
are given the power and respect
to interpret it and be the spokespeople
for it. Another great example
is the writer and historian
Karen Armstrong. Look for her
books on God and Christianity
in the bookstore. The most important
thing is for you to feel comfortable
and to not feel compromised
by your either your religion
or your feminism.
