In her works, Mary Daly creates a new philosophy and theology based on women's specific experience of faith in God. She strives to reveal the inherent gender bias embedded in the concepts, patterns, and language of Christianity, introducing it as a factor of oppression, a neglect of women's experience, and an obstacle to their human perfection. Daly seeks to raise awareness and realize the "becoming existent" of women; however, a number of thinkers have viewed this with skepticism. By raising questions about the nature and process of this awareness, they have posed the concern of whether sharing such awareness among women will be able to provoke a profound transformation in them and in society or not. This article, using a descriptive-analytical method and by examining her views in three works — *The Church and the Second Sex*, *Beyond God the Father*, and *Gyn/Ecology* — concludes that the perspectives she presented as a "universal law" lack generalizability. Furthermore, in addition to the existence of duality in some of her ideas, many feminist theologians have also criticized and challenged them.
