  • Woman - As Creatrix of Civilization

    in Culture

    It's been good to be back these last weeks sharing my thoughts and ideas with you. I hope you've been enjoying the topics I've offered.  Today we're talking about WOMAN AS CREATRIX OF CIVILIZATION even though in patriarchy too often women are relegated to madonnas, whores and breeders.  Or if we let some of the GOP have their way, we'll be chained to the stove, barefoot and pregnant.  As VSF returns to the air with it's over-arching theme of I AM ENOUGH & SO ARE YOU I go back to my roots and discuss the "bees buzzing round in my bonnet."  I'll still have the occasional guest to chat with, but I've shortened the show to 30 minutes or so and I've taken the advice of my wise women friends and have decided to let you hear from me instead of a new author each week. 

  • When Love & Compassion Are Not the Answer - Spiritual ByPassing with Karen Tate

    It's been good to be back these last weeks sharing my thoughts and ideas with you. I hope you've been enjoying the topics I've offered.  Today we're talking about WHEN LOVE & COMPASSION ARE NOT THE ANSWER - SPIRITUAL BYPASSING.  Psychologists say we're drowning in phoney love and compassion as people spiritually bypass rather than be uncomfortable long enough to solve problems. The bypassers then claim moral and spiritual superiority when in fact they might just be cowards without emotional maturity.  As VSF returns to the air with it's over-arching theme of I AM ENOUGH & SO ARE YOU I go back to my roots and discuss the "bees buzzing round in my bonnet."  I'll still have the occasional guest to chat with, but I've shortened the show to 30 minutes or so and I've taken the advice of my wise women friends and have decided to let you hear from me instead of a new author each week.
