a Catholic author and mother of four says an anti Marian spirit is destroying Western culture and has been for decades dr. Kerry grass explores the topic in her new book the anti Mary exposed rescuing the culture from toxic femininity and carry grass joins me now welcome back to our broadcast Gary thank you it's so great to be here early that was a mouthful let's break that down you've off third meant many books about Mary and her importance but anti Mary right where did that idea come from you know I came when I was writing the Marian option and I really noticed that there was a huge gap between the ideal woman of our current culture and then who our lady is they just don't match up and so and how so is that what you're calling about six femininity yeah I think so I think that what has actually happened I mean I've done two years of research on this now and what's actually happened is that the vices that women have had have now been turned into the virtue so a lot of rage ambition even just this lie that we live with that our children are obstacle to our happiness and career isn't all of these kinds of things I was just not to say that women shouldn't be working but clearly to say that when we when we buy into the lie that women have to be like men or that our children are really an obstacle to our happiness and that's what I'm going talks a feminine obstacle in happiness I have three children I can't even write get my wrap my head around those words but okay in in this book you write I'm gonna show this to our viewers here through the pill followed by the advent of legalized abortion motherhood has been on the chopping block along with childhood and motherhood has become dispensable is this treatment of motherhood erasing the spirit of Mary is that where you're going with this well I think it's a bigger issue and we have to obviously look back to the early feminists in 1960s and what it was that they were what they were trying to do and a lot of my research on earth and details related to the occult and to Marxism so there's basically what they wanted to destroy was the patriarchy you know how do you do that by destroying the family by promoting all kinds of things that obviously are helpful and important to women so when what we've seen is really this pattern of women trying to be like men and in order to do that they can't have children and this is why we're seeing these abortion numbers 60 million abortions I mean if I think if we look at any other age in history the fact that we have women killing their own children is just historically unprecedented you point out that equality between men and women developed in Catholicism define what you mean by that well I think if you look back at any world religion you never see women as as equal to men I mean Aristotle talks pokel women is deformed males and you know throughout religions and it's just very kind it's not but what's happened is obviously with Christ coming he treated women differently and then we throughout the 2,000 years of Catholic history we've seen our lady really flourish in a devotion to her and through that understanding of who she she was we understand a feminine a maternal a different way to be engaged with God and to reflect on in the church is called she for that reason because of that maternal reflection and that's really what has given women equality and and it's it's just ironic to me that we've lost sight of that and now of course there's there's so much rage against the church because people think it's so you know hates women and and is against women and in fact it's just exactly the opposite this is what's really where we've got undergirded our dignity we have to go but I really did enjoy the piece where it says be a daughter to the mother and that Mary stands for her daughters but her daughters also must stand for her thank you so much Kerry Gress author of the anti Mary exposed rescuing the culture from toxic femininity
