CONTENT NOTE: At the 36:34 mark to the 39:19 mark we discuss the Jewish cultural ideas on homosexuality which came from their knowledge of assault upon children within other cultures. While we touched on it to educate where homophobia stemmed from within the Jewish and Christian faiths, we acknowledge that this could be triggering. Take care of yourself and skip that part if you need to. We are Black Lives Matter advocates and we stand with the black community in these troubling racist times. If you can, please donate to the LGBTQ Freedom Fund at www.lgbtqfund.org or The Bail Project. We have posted information on our instagram about the The Bail Project and The National Lawyers Guild. Did you know that there are lesbians in the direct line to Jesus? In this episode, we discuss the story of Ruth, her relationship with Naomi, and how some biblical scholars think that these two women were more than just companions. Intro and Outro: "Feeling Sunny" by Scott Holms Art: Emily Krieg www.emilykrieg.com Emily: @emilykriegart Dom: @hii_imdom Women and Children First: @wcfbookLGBTQ Freedom Fund: @LGBTQ_Freedom
