| Abstract: | This essay examines the rhetoric of the STOP ERA movement. It traces the elements of a divinely ordained order which STOP ERA advocates perceived in women, families, and societies and explores the contrasting anomalies and anomy which STOP ERA supporters perceive in the opposition. The essay also examines the rhetorical function of the vision offered by STOP ERA to its members and assesses the social impact of the message. |
