Equality is not a Feeling, 16.0

The next three Equality is not a Feeling posts come to us from Laura C., who is a veteran around here.   Laura did a gender study of our hymnal.   Here’s how she did it:

I broke the hymns down two ways:

• By verse
• By hymn

For the references to females, I grouped them by whether they were symbolic references (Zion, Earth, Nature) or if they were personal (Mary, Eve), or whether they were part of a phrase that included men (usually “sons and daughters”).

Since nearly all of our references to Deity are male, I separated out reference to God from references to men/mankind/brothers.

Equality is not a Feeling, 16.0-18.0 depict the results of her hymn study.   After all three posts have been published, we’ll do some wrap-up.   For now, just the results.
