Dennis Prager spends a lot of time talking about the difference between men and women. And given that there is wide variability of traits among all people, both men and women, there is certainly a centralizing tendency for women to be more feminine than men.
But are women's souls feminine - and men's souls masculine? Following Thomas Jefferson's observation that "All men are created equal," there has been a couple centuries worth of debate on "In what way are (people) equal?"
If women's souls are feminine does this mean that they are unequal? Are women unfit to be president of the United States because their souls are unequal to men's? And what about our perceptions and theories about human souls? Does our theory say that souls vary in their characteristics the way the incarnated human being does?
