ME, MYSELF AND I, DR. DIANE K. OLSON, LUTHERAN MINISTER AND DISTINGUISHED PROFESSOR, AM A STRONG FEMINIST AND HAVE RESEARCHED AND WRITTEN ABOUT FEMINIST THEORY AND THE POLITICS OF REPRESENTING WOMEN IN THE MEDIA AND ONLINE FOR OVER THIRTY YEARS

GUESS WHAT, FOLKS? I HAVE RESEARCHED, STUDIED AND WRITTEN ABOUT FEMINIST THEORIES OF THE POLITICS OF REPRESENTING WOMEN IN THE MEDIA AND ONLINE FOR OVER THIRTY YEARS, SINCE I WAS AN UNDERGRADUATE AT DRAKE UNIVERSITY IN CULTURAL STUDIES AND COMPOSITION THEORY AND ENGLISH STUDIES.  THUS, I KNOW ALL TOO WELL ABOUT THE POLITICS UNDERLYING THE ATTEMPTS TO MISCHARACTERIZE AND MALICIOUSLY MISLABEL STRONG, OUTSPOKEN, ACCOMPLISHED AND HIGHLY EDUCATED WOMEN SUCH AS MYSELF AS "MENTALLY IMPAIRED" OR CRAZY, WHICH HAVE LONG BEEN THE POLITICAL STRATEGIES OF CONSERVATIVES AND THE RELIGIOUS RIGHT AND FUNDAMENTALISTS -- AND, FOLKS, I AM ALL ABOUT MY PASSIONATE WALK OF FAITH WITH LORD JESUS WHO FULLY SUPPORTS FEMINIST MOVEMENTS AROUND THE EARTH AND ACROSS AMERICA TODAY. REMEMBER, FOLKS, THE PARABLE OF THE WOMAN AT THE WELL WHO JESUS DEFENDED AND ADVOCATED FOR IN THE GOSPELS AND IN A PREVIOUS LIFE ON PLANET EARTH WHEN HE PASSIONATELY WALKED WITH HIS DISCIPLES WHICH WERE ACTUALLY HIS DEAR FRIENDS AND HEALED THE SICK AND PERFORMED AMAZING MIRACLES. WELL, JESUS IS BACK AS LORD AND SAVIOR AND HE TALKS WITH ME, DR. DIANE K. OLSON, AND HE WALKS WITH ME, DR. DIANE K. OLSON, AND JESUS LOVES ME AND ADORES ME AND MY FEMINISM MORE THAN YOU CAN POSSIBLE UNDERSTAND OR KNOW.   SEE, FOLKS, JESUS DID NOT COME TO EARTH TO ESTABLISH A FUNDAMENTALIST RELIGION THAT AIMS TO CONTROL PEOPLE/WOMEN; RATHER, JESUS CAME TO EARTH TO LIBERATE PEOPLE AND TEACH PEOPLE WHAT IT MEANS TO WALK IN FAITH WITH HIM AS A HEALER, TEACHER,  MINISTER, LORD AND LOVING AND COMPASSIONATE SAVIOR AND JESUS CAME TO EARTH TO LIBERATE PEOPLE FROM OPPRESSION, SUPPRESSION AND REPRESSION SO THEY CAN LIVE FREELY AND JOYFULLY WITH CONFIDENCE THAT THEY WILL GO TO HEAVEN BECAUSE OF WHAT JESUS DID ON THE CROSS AS A SAVIOR TO LIBERATE PEOPLE FROM DYING AND DEATH OVER TWO THOUSAND YEARS AGO. I, DR. AND MINISTER DIANE K. OLSON, HAVE SO MUCH MORE TO TEACH FELLOW LUTHERANS AND CHRISTIANS AND NON-CHRISTIANS OF EVERY CREED ON THIS EARTH ABOUT THE MEANING AND POWER OF FAITH IN THE CROSS AND FAITH IN JESUS, WHICH I HAVE STUDIED FOR THE LONGEST TIME, DURING MY WALK OF FAITH WITH MY BEST FRIEND, LORD JESUS C. NIELSEN, WHO I ADORE AND CARE DEEPLY ABOUT.  YOU SEE, FOLKS WHO ARE TRYING TO TAKE DOWN MY MINISTERIAL BLOGS AND MY FAITH AND POLITICS BLOG AND MALICIOUSLY AND FALSELY MISREPRESENT ME AS "MENTALLY IMPAIRED" -- NOTHING COULD BE FURTHER FROM THE CASE AT ALL  AND WHICH IS A COMMON, TIRED POLITICAL STRATEGY TO SILENCE  AND INSTITUTIONALIZE  HIGHLY EDUCATED FEMALE PROFESSORS/MINISTERS WHO ARE OUTSPOKEN IN THE MEDIA --  SO AS TO SILENCE AND TEAR DOWN MY BLOGGING AND MY WRITING AND SPEAKING ABOUT LORD JESUS,  WHEN I AM ACTUALLY A COMPASSIONATE INTELLECTUAL AND SCHOLAR/ARTIST AND MINISTERIAL THEORIST -- FOR OVER THIRTY YEARS -- FIRMLY GROUNDED IN MY LUTHERAN FAITH AND MY POETIC AND MINISTERIAL WRITING AND RESEARCH ABOUT THE GOSPELS AND FIRMLY GROUNDED IN WHO JESUS TRULY IS -- AS MY BEST FRIEND, LORD, SAVIOR, TRUE COMPANION AND COMING KING --- AND WHAT IT MEANS TO WALK WITH JESUS AND HAVE FAITH IN JESUS, ACCORDING THE LUTHERAN FAITH THAT I WAS RAISED IN SINCE I WAS CHILD AND WHICH I HAVE SO MUCH TO TEACH YOU ABOUT.  SO, YOU KNOW WHAT FOLKS, YOU CAN GIVE-UP THE FIGHT AGAINST MY INTELLIGENT AND COMPASSIONATE BLOGGING BECAUSE THE BLOGS ARE GOING TO STAY UP AND BE RESTORED BY GOD ALMIGHTY HIMSELF/HERSELF WHO HAS CALLED AND ORDAINED ME TO GO OUT AND TEACH THE TRUTHS OF THE GOSPELS, AND WHILE YOU MAY NOT LIKE THE FACT THAT I HAVE AN EXTENSIVE UNIVERSITY BACKGROUND IN FEMINIST THEORY, CULTURAL STUDIES AND COMPOSITION/WRITING STUDIES AND THE FACT THAT I MINISTER ON BEHALF OF LORD JESUS VERY COMPASSIONATELY AND PASSIONATELY AND LOVINGLY ON MY BLOGS  AND HAVE BEEN MINISTERING ONLINE FOR THE PAST SIX YEARS  AND THE FACT THAT GOD ALMIGHTY HIMSELF/HERSELF SPEAKS OUT PASSIONATELY ON MY BLOGS ON OCCASION, IT IS SIMPLY NOT TRUE AT ALL -- HEAR ME, LOUD AND CLEAR, NOT TRUE AT ALL THAT I AM "MENTALLY UNSTABLE" AS YOU -- RELIGIOUS FUNDAMENTALISTS AND CONSERVATIVES -- KEEP TRYING TO PORTRAY ME AS BEING BECAUSE I HAVE A VAST AND VERY STABLE AND VERY GROUNDED INTELLECT THAT CONTAINS ALL OF THE BOOKS AND ARTICLES THAT I HAVE EVER READ AND KNOWS THE GOSPELS AND THE TRUTHS OF JESUS, MY BEST FRIEND, INSIDE AND OUT.  AGAIN, PLEASE JUST STOP THE MISREPRESENTATIONS, FOLKS, BECAUSE I WORK IN CRITICAL ETHNOGRAPHY, AS WELL, AND AM AN ETHNOGRAPHER OF THE CROSS AND AN ETHNOGRAPHER OF THE GOSPELS, AND JESUS HIMSELF, AS A RABBI AND TEACHER AND SCHOLAR OF THE CROSS,  HAS A LOT TO SAY ABOUT MISREPRESENTATIONS OF HIMSELF (JESUS) IN THE MEDIA AND BY THE RELIGIOUS RIGHT -- YES, LORD JESUS HIMSELF IS VERY UPSET AND DISMAYED AT THE STATE OF CHRISTIANITY AND MISCHARACTERIZATIONS OF WHAT HE STANDS FOR AS A LORD AND SAVIOR AND COMING KING. JUST READ OUR FAITH AND POLITICS BLOG THAT WE HAVE BEEN WRITING ON SINCE JULY OF 2016 AND SOAK IN THE FACT THAT EVERY PERSON ON THIS PLANET -- DEMOCRAT, REPUBLICAN OR INDEPENDENT -- IS LOVED, ADORED AND CARED FOR BY DR. AND MINISTER AND LORD JESUS CHRIST -- AND THAT JESUS CALLS YOU OUT INTO THE WORLD TO WALK IN FAITH -- TO ENGAGE IN WILD, WONDERFUL, PASSIONATE AND AMAZING WALKS OF FAITH THAT TEACH YOU ABOUT HUMANITY AND BUILD YOUR COMPASSION AND LOVE FOR YOUR FELLOW HUMAN BEINGS IN ALL OF THEIR BROKENNESS AND FRAILTY AND THEIR DEEP NEEDS FOR LOVE, AFFECTION AND COMPASSION.  OKAY, THAT IS ALL FOR TODAY, AND FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY CRAZY AND BEAUTIFUL HEART -- MY FEMINIST HEART -- DR. AND MINISTER DIANE K. OLSON WHOSE FEMINIST HEART IS INTWINED WITH THE HANDSOME AND TENDER HEART OF LORD JESUS C. NIELSEN, OUR COMING KING.
