Implicit (and sometimes explicit) in Matthews' bizarre theology is a hostility towards women. The authors trace the foundation of this sentiment to Matthews' upbringing in a strict Scottish Calvinist community. This community functioned as a patriarchy: the church elders were all men, and fathers led their families in prayer and were the undisputed head of the household.
