Free Jinger tends to be personality driven, we snark on fundy families and patriarchs and their beliefs and foibles. However, I've been wanting a thread that puts this into the context of the larger beliefs and cultural movements that influence the people we follow and snark on. Yes, there is crossover with politics, but I think it's important to view this as religion driving politics and not pure politics, so in the snark thread and not in the politics thread. I came across this astounding and brilliant twitter thread by Scott Foley this morning that prompted me to go ahead and do it. I hope it will point you all towards what might be posted on this thread. Thread unrolli for non twitterati: There’s a lot of overlap among evangelicals who dismiss social justice... or just read it here! Original article related to this thread: Racism & Patriarchy: Two Strands of the Same Authoritarian Theology I'll try to track down two more articles. One is about Dominionism and Abortion. Another discusses how some fundamentalist American Christians are being bamboozled into supporting...Russia?
