Mary Daly's philosophy in the context of feminist teology

Being and position of woman both in the private and social life have caused some problems since the first human was created. With the aim of solutions for these problems, lots of spiritual movements have been developed. These developed movements have concerned with subjects such as how patriarchal society developed, which fields were effected and the sexual, religious, political and economical pressure upon women. During historical development of human, religion has been the most effected area of all these. Mary Daly who is one of the most important pioneers of radical feminism which developed as one of the last feminist movements, criticized patriachal as general and christianity, which has been considered as blocking human being, in specific. According to her, religions are nothing else from the sects under the patriarchal umbrella. Feminist teology of Mary Daly saying for women in desire of wanderlusting, the only way of participating to god as an active verb is to dismiss the patriarchal evils in women inside, is an enlightening work for women defined by women.
