Bad News sneaks in with Good News



Bad news...  and I'm not talking about our president boasting his way into atomic bombing of North Korea.

Anti-woman, anti-gay Christians have sailed into the White House on the coattails of dt.

Here's the Washington Post on Aug. 1:

Thanks to Carol Kuruvilla for investigating and reporting on the sexist & anti-gay aspects on Huffington Post on Aug. 2:

The pastor who leads these studies, Ralph Drollinger, has reportedly claimed that mothers who work while leaving children at home are sinful and that Catholicism is the “world’s largest false religion.” He’s also a climate-change denier and virulently anti-queer.

His group is Capitol Ministries.  https://capmin.org/

Thank you to Kathy Barbini for telling me about this Bible study.  She's making a documentary on feminist work for equality in Christian churches.  http://www.baptizingfeminism.com/.
