<!--QuoteBegin-ramana+Dec 13 2006, 12:40 AM-->QUOTE(ramana @ Dec 13 2006, 12:40 AM)<!--QuoteEBegin-->During the Middle Ages as Christianity spread in Europe it adopted native symbols and myhts to propogate its message. One such symbol popularized was the importance of the Madonna and the Child. The Madonna cult grew by leaps and bounds and gave importance to the Mother figure or the feminine figure over teh masculine. My question is when Enlightenment came did the Feminist movement trace its roots to the Madonna Movement in Europe and the West?

Madonna and the Child is not a middle age symbol. Its origin goes back to the Egyptian Gods, Isis and Osiris.
