:''The fifth vision had to do with the moral problem of our age, centering mostly around women. God showed me that women began to be out of their place with the granting of the vote. Then they cut off their hair, which signified that they were no longer under the authority of a man but insisted on either equal rights, or in most cases, more than equal rights. She adopted men's clothing and went into a state of undress, until the last picture I saw was a woman naked except for a little fig leaf type apron.

In 2007 a woman was awarded a $29,000 settlement from the City of New York for being arrested (and being subject to 12 hours in custody and a psychiatric evaluation) after walking topless in New York City in 2005. <ref name="Topless"> http://www.cnn.com/2007/LAW/06/18/topless.settlement.ap/index.html </ref> In 2008, Oprah Winfrey introducted the world to Thomas Beatie and his wife.  "Mr." Beatie, formerly a Hawaiian model named Ms. Tracy Lagondin, was artificially inseminated through an anonymous donor, and gave birth naturally to a baby girl.  If Biblical language were used to discribe this situation, it would be a mix of "sodomy" and "prostitution".  However, this new-age family was presented as the new "normal" by the media.
