Last night's post prompted this (forthcoming) thought.
Chesterton's justly famous quoted seems apropo to the discussion of patriarchalism and egalitarianism, at least if it's modified a bit.
"Christianity has not been tried and found wanting: it has been found difficult and not tried."
Substitute our choice words, and we get....
"Patriarchalism has not been tried and found wanting: it has been found difficult and not tried."
Conversly,
"Egalitarianism has not been tried and found wanting: it has been found difficult and not tried."
Somehow it seems fitting.
