Bonus Ep 2 - Excerpt

An excerpt from the November bonus episode, available in full to Patrons on Patreon in the $5 a month tier.This episode is a discussion between me and my spouse about the English language and Bible translations. We discuss how KJV only-ism parallels early efforts to keep the Bible from being translated into English, the tower of Babel, and how learning the history of the English language was one of the pieces in our deconstruction of conservative Christianity. This excerpt includes a story about my pastor FiL accusing me of moral relativism for suggesting that nonstandard English dialect had grammatical systems (back before I was a moral relativist - go figure) and some discussion of how Evangelical control of language and Bible translations is vital to its chokehold on politics and culture.Support the show
