Returning the Gaze: What Does the Bible Say About Slavery? | Khaled Abou El Fadl | Usuli Excerpts

[@shethewriter]

I haven't finished the bible but oh man. The sexism in there is so heavy I need long breaks. If anyone take any religious texts literally they're going to have a problem, no matter what religion.

It depends on how u read it tbh ! Many Christian women find liberation In their religion because they aren’t defined by anything other than their relationship to God or Jesus . It doesn’t matter how they look or what sins they have done or if they are married or not with kids it frees them

Beautifal words from the Professor! Inshallah people will learn and act on this.
