"Claiming the priesthood and knowing God the Mother are nearly always on the list of concerns of Mormon feminists. Why are these objectives considered essential for women’s spiritual equality with men? Why do discussions about Mormon women so often gravitate to these dual focal points? Feminist theologians assert that as long as there is only a male god and a male priesthood, women will be subordinate. In Mormonism a female priesthood and a heavenly mother are doctrinal attestations of the equality of women. I believe these concepts are not merely feminist inventions imported from the world, but that they are true and important revelations given by God to Joseph Smith at the beginning of this dispensation, which continue to resonate in current LDS doctrine and ritual even if not widely accepted. I see them as an inherent part of the 'restoration of all things.'"[Author]
