go to seminary

Because if I go straight to seminary after I graduate, I’ll lose four years of design education. I guess I’ll work for a firm for the requisite two years, take the NCIDQ, and THEN decide what I want to do with my life. God may be the most important part of my life, or should be, but would he have given me the opportunity and desire to be a designer if I’m supposed to turn it down? I really want to design for special populations: assisted living, nursing homes, universal design for the physically handicapped. Before then, though, I’ll probably be stuck doing commercial design. That’s okay. The way I see it, in a culture that’s so materialistic, I can be one more person in the design field who sees beauty in simplicity and reservation.

It doesn’t matter how the SBC and the Vatican phrase it. Excluding women from leadership positions in the Church is a policy which stems from the belief that women are inferior to men and less desirable to God.
