Cherie Blair was right to mention the problem of forced pregnancy among young schoolgirls in Africa (Cherie Blair accused of reinforcing stereotypes about African women, 27 March). She was speaking at a Catholic school, and Catholics are currently struggling with the whole problem of unwanted pregnancy and women's (and men's) rights. In traditional societies in Africa, a girl's reproductive capacity was "owned" by her birth family, and there were recognised customs to enforce damages for "seduction", which to some extent protected young girls. These protections have vanished with modernity, and organisations such as Cafod can provide in-depth information about the attrition of girls in school past puberty, which puts a question mark over every attempt at social development (we are talking about girls as young as 11). Of course African leaders, including bishops, would rather not talk about this. But a demographic disaster is unfolding in southern Africa, and silencing talk about it will not make it go away. Jenny Tillyard (Lived 30 years in Zimbabwe), Seaford, East Sussex Advertisement As a Catholic, I agree entirely with Tina Beattie (Opinion, 27 March) about the disenfranchisement of women in our church. We are still waiting on the "contentious" possibility of women deacons and, although I abhor that expression "not in my lifetime", I am beginning to see the reasoning behind it and feel its negative and depressing weight on my shoulders. I am pleased that Pope Francis acknowledged Lucetta Scaraffia's dedicated work in the church in regard to our enfranchisement. Now he and the hierarchy need to reach out to women and legitimise their much-needed accession to leadership roles. Until that happens the church will fall behind and below what many Catholic men, women and children justifiably expect from what should be a modern, all-embracing organisation and one that Christ would want as well.

Dear Reader,
I did not consent.
You did not consent. |
But on March 9th, 2022, Joe Biden did something that will solidify his legacy as the greatest 'Peeping Tom' in history.
A despicable act that could give him direct access to you... |
Your neighbors...
And your children. |
Whether you are a Democrat or Republican — if you aren't sick after seeing the details of this disturbing order... | |
Then you might as well never stand for the national anthem again.
That's why I am urging you to get the details of this order and take action before it's too late. |
Regards,
Jim Rickards, Editor, Paradigm Press |
