Mary Jo Weaver, another Catholic feminist, asks what feminists can do about the traditional patriarchal church. Some feminist historians are interested only in studying the place of women in history, and some feminist biblical scholars are only interested in understanding how the Bible addresses the problems of modern women. These are worthy exercises, and can be very fruitful. A study of President's wives, for example, can reveal a lot about American politics. At an extreme, there is a relatively small group of feminist witches.
Radical feminists are virulently anti-Christian.
Some advocate a return to the ancient mythologies because the ancient pantheon of gods included female deities. Others do not go quite so far, but in the end, they have replaced the Christian God with women. For the feminists, Woman is God. At a conference on woman's spirituality in 1976, the advent of the goddess was proclaimed. Feminists seek equality for men and women.
