Melissa: I feel like the statement about women being more religious than men is a bold statement. It is unfair to make this statement because it is a huge generalization. The accussation about women being emotional and men being rational is completely biased, I feel, on sterotypes. However, even if we chose to travel this route, it would seem to be an unsupported idea on account of the fact that Popes are generally men, most leaders of churches are men, and most religions see God as being male. It seems to me that men are the most involved in religion. However, I realize that this may not make them more religious. Simply, I feel offended by the fact that you would make such a bold statement that supports such steotypical beliefs.
Quincy: Possibly, with strong support from your journal research, you could set up a framework in which you could present this idea. In this framework, I would like to see the theories the authors used to create this ideology.
