R.I.P. Mary Daly

A Facebook link led me to the NY Times obituary of the feminist theologian who, ensconced in Boston College, excoriated Christianity. She was a late igniter of the Enlightenment powerfully advocating women's dignity. Her books are great fun to read, and saved my serious suburban friend from depression by pointing out that the condition is an invention of the patriarchal psychiatric power structure; now she is ready to take up flirting. Daly, in literary heaven, weaves a corrected Summa with her favorite cats and bunnies.
