Bergunder 3

Brusco: emancipation of women in Pentecostal churches, neutralisation of machismo. Intermediate point between machismo and feminism; which is attractive for many family oriented women. 1(168)

Burdick: increasing social engagement especially where Catholics do not already control associations and movements. Although poverty may be tolerated radical impoverishment is not. Lay people often have more radical views than pastors.2
