Is Patriarchy the Best Term?

I am grateful for Rick Phillips's latest post on feminism.  There are errors on both sides of a biblical view of godly male leadership in the home and in the church.  Authoritarian, domineering men who stifle the gifts of women -- or worse, who use their stength or their position to legitimate verbal, physical, or other forms of abuse -- are a reproach to the church and stand in opposition to the ministry of Christ. 

Indeed, this is one of the reasons I am in strong support of the Danbury Statement produced by the Council on Biblical Manhood and Womanhood: it is zealous to protect men and women from ungodly patriarchy.
