It's been a minute since I did anything for the very fine radio broadcast, All Things Considered. It's happening today. I had a fascinating conversation with James Jones - a life long Mormon who says LDS theology is inherently anti-racist, it's the church that's problematic.

@rachelsteenblik I want to be a badass Bible scholar like @LDThinking on @BTBLDS so I could be better at backing up my Mormon unorthodoxy with scriptures.

It’s the plagues this week in CFM [Exodus 7-13]. And now, a take ain’t nobody ask for :) This week’s text got a few things to say about compromising with oppressors. As Moses inflicts plagues on Pharaoh, Pharaoh attempts to pacify Moses by conceding to everything but his demands.

A friend asked me to tweet out this survey called: "Anonymous Survey for members of the LDS faith (particulary BIPOC and LGBTQ+ members in the USA)" Thank you! docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAI…

Not exactly revelatory, but I'll say it while we're studying Exodus 1-6 this week: BYU's Honor Code is impossible to honor. In the first six chapters of Exodus, there at least six women (Shiphrah, Puah, Jochebed, Miriam, Pharaoh's daughter, and Zipporah) who must disobey men

youtu.be/HbO3gVVVy5g?t=… I thought folks were taking this out of context originally, but it's still pretty bad even in context. I can appreciate the spirit of what Brad Wilcox is trying to do as someone whose list of theological questions continues to grow as I work out answers

With respect to Rev. Brown, nahhhhh

medium.com/@jamescjones/d… Tl;dr Deseret Book hired me to make an online course on challenging prejudice Deseret Book refused to publish it because I challenged prejudice 🤷🏾♂️

I hope the Saints are taking notes. Everyone in the conference center is vaccinated. 🤔 Let me say it a different way. If all the leaders are vaccinated, including the prophet; and you ain’t vaccinated, who are you following? #conferencethoughts #GeneralConference
@thmazing @AislingRowan @motleyvision @JamesGoldberg Whaaaaaat?! You haven't heard all 100+ of our hour+ long episodes?!!
Beyond The Block retweeted
imagine the power queer christians could hold if we entered every conversation that involved our queerness with the inherent assumption that queerness is a divine gift- already holy and good. and if someone disagrees we simply act like they're the most ridiculous person on earth.
