I've been noticing pagan and "other" religious groups growing in academia. In addition to the struggle to find a job (although straight up feminist theology is hard pressed for a job too), it is also a challenge just to study, to find classes and mentors. Doing Mary was hard enough at the GTU - with 3 Catholic schools, an Orthodox institute and feminists at PSR! I had one formal class on Mary, an art history course. It's sort of like swimming up stream. While I know that's part of the joy of the PhD I'd like more resources than I've had.
