I stumbled on this in an 1833 edition of the Post-Gazette, outlining the state of marriages in London in 1813 and I cannot stop laughing p.s. I am divorced

Even with affirmative action, white students in the US were more likely to gain admission than equally qualified Black students. This will only further entrench systemic power asymmetries within higher education.
BREAKING: The U.S. Supreme Court rules colleges and universities must stop considering race in admissions, putting an end to affirmative action in higher education. https://t.co/qCOtkgbxQO

If you were to collect up all the bizarre assertions about human anatomy and sexuality that have been pulled out of people’s asses and bear no resemblance to reality, you’d have enough material for several large, very stupid volumes.

Wasn’t she just banging on in favor of forced sexual servitude to one’s husband about 15 minutes ago?

Excellent talks‼️ 👏🏾 "When you talk about sex in the Bible, that's how you talk about marriage in the Bible; [it] is by talking about sex. When you talk about marriage in the Bible, both testaments, you are talking about sex." Dr. @JenniferGBird

It's so interesting to me that sex in the Bible is talked about in ways, at times, that are not shameful yet in modern times Christians make it out to be filthy and only reserved for their definitions of marriage. Dr. @JenniferGBird's discussions are insightful & helpful.

Judaism is a marginalized ethnoreligious identity, and a Christian wearing a kippah to pray for a criminal, gives the illusion that Jewish people support this man when they overwhelmingly don’t (77% or Jewish voters supported Biden). This is appropriation and it’s dangerous.
Faith leaders pray over Donald Trump as he visits a Cuban restaurant after his arraignment in Miami.

Asking for a friend: if one should decide to call it quits in the Twitterverse, does one fully erase their account or just stop checking in?

I am rather tired of people having in-your-face exchanges. That only put me off when I was beginning to look into new ideas for myself. I prefer to invite people into convos, & have respectful exchanges…. All of which is why I’m not too active here! 😂😂

Christians - I love everyone. God loves you IF you stop being queer. Queer people - Then your god doesn’t love me. Christians - He loves you so much, he doesn’t want you to get hurt. Queer people - Who’s going to hurt us? Christians - Our god and the legislation we support.

Fabulous news! The digital ink is already dry, as Melissa Wilcox @melissamwilcox and I just signed the contract to launch QTR: A Journal of Trans and Queer Studies in Religion with Duke University Press @DukePress ! A long time in the making… stay tuned for more details soon!

I've decided to go live on YT every afternoon in June, 3pm E: reading biblical passages that touch on sex, "marriage", or physical-abuse-that-involves-genitalia. #sexinthebible #biblicalmarriage
#marriageinthebible Come drop in for a minute or two. https://t.co/1BN8FBJf8Y

I cannot overemphasize the importance of @sacwriter's observation about the effects of sexual repression. (I'm lookin' at you Christianity!)
