I'm not so sure about it "not being a woman's place" however. Our newest moderator here, Anne Ivy, (gryphonette) has argued against the FV for years. So I suppose based on your reasoning that she should cease her activities and relinquish her moderatorship here as well since it is not limited to the Tea Parlor.

I seem to recall that Jenny Geddes didn't shy away from theological controversy!
Fair point...though there is an air of disrespect when a woman challenges a soundly Reformed person in the manner that this lady did. I don't mind Anne and Jenny Geddes throwing stools at heretics.
"Villain! doest thou say mass in my lug?"
Put ol' Jenny after Barb. Or Anne will do lacking a time machine.
I remember giving a lecture once on Social Covenanting at a Covenanter Youth meeting in Dromara and I quoted Jenny's words; the whole place nearly came down with laughter.
