John Dekker's Day

4:40PM - Do women have souls?

I was going to ask "Do clones have souls?" (hopefully, coming soon) but I've allowed myself to get sidetracked. This is perhaps even more interesting. I remember a character in the movie Shadowlands asking this very question.

Anyway, I googled the question and discovered that I had asked it a while ago on Christine's blog. I also discovered this comment:

That's as good as "do women have souls?" Apparently before the year 1900, it was a hot subject of debate.

Exactly! Because anything before 1900 is the Middle Ages.

Anyway, Michael Nolan presents a historical survey of the issue.
