feminist theology

   Also found in: Wikipedia 0.02 sec.

feminist theology

Critique of theology from an avowedly feminist perspective. Originating in the work of US scholars such as Mary Daly (1928– ) in the 1970s, feminist theology has quickly become a major new branch of theology and has called into question many key concepts and terms within Christian and Jewish theology.

Feminist theologians are split between those who believe that established religions such as Christianity or Judaism are fundamentally hostile to women, and those who believe that such faiths can be purged of antifeminist attitudes.
