Beatrice Bruteau
Episcopal theologian and author
"Women aping men's power will just lead us to be wicked and coarse. That will double the world?s trouble! I propose neo-feminism, which is again holistic, united, synthetic and cooperative, but includes analytic and reflective methods. It brings a feeling for wholeness."
A Catholic by faith and practice, Dr. Bruteau looks to eastern traditions to draw closer to her religion. Drawing on many traditional religious practices such as Hinduism, Buddhism, and Judaism, she posits a way for Christians to deepen their understanding and practice of Christianity. In her book, What We Can Learn From the East (Crossroad), insight into the Gospels deepens as the filter of Zen turns the text into religious experience.
