Thursday, we're talking about the role of women in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Over the last few years, a movement of Mormon women asserting their rights within the Church has reemerged. They've been asking to pray in general conference and be more involved in day-to-day decisions. Now there is a group asking to be given the LDS priesthood. But why haven't women been given the priesthood? Is it a doctrinal issue or a cultural one? Doug is joined by Mormon women to talk about the history and about what's at stake.

LDS Historian D. Michael Quinn found Mormon Women Have Had the Priesthood Since 1843. In the early days of the Church women would give blessings to other women’s “affected area’s” by laying on of hands where it was not appropriate for men to do so. See: http://signaturebookslibrary.org/?p=1171
