I do respect and value Dr. McMillan's reply (January) to my letter (November 2006). It is with appreciation of his long Christian quest that I test his persuasion regarding global south Christians. There are many cultural areas in our world where 19th-century (and earlier) evangelism has not been refi ned. Where well-meaning, but unsophisticated missionary zeal has been proffered and innocently accepted. I don't think women's liberation is pertinent to this issue as the Muslim women's rights movement in the West should be considered as a Christian challenge to the myriad of misogynistic fundamental Christian churches that abound in North America. Having been a rep elder to East Toronto presbytery in the early 60s when the subject of ordination of women was being debated, it now seems incomprehensible that the issue existed such a short time ago.
