pickWhen I first read this in 1985 it had a big impact on me and it‘s one book that stayed with me. I‘ve not watched the series and probably won‘t. This reread allowed me to see how much is actually happening now. Loved the authors introduction written in 2017. Who would have thought back in 1985 that some of this could be a possibility.
pickAll. The. Stars.
I could not stop listening. Such a beautiful journey for a beautiful soul. This is a great discussion of religion, theology, gender, humanity, love. It has an interesting and lovely connection to “When God was a Woman.” Her description of her thought processes and her experiences really resonated with me and was refreshing to hear. 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻
so-soI almost want to give this a pick. I don‘t know why. It has some problematic parts, some of which actually damage women (can we please burn “herstory” to the ground already! Actual women in the field are harmed by this term, thank you). She seems to have no clue what most people mean when referring to the “c-word” (she uses it when referring to the word crone). 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻
After watching a few of her TEDtalks, I cannot wait to give this a listen.

I have some questions. Very thought provoking theory. I look forward to discussing this with the dead philosophers society in the new year. #MerlinStone #WhenGodWasAWoman #audiobook #religion #philosophy #DeadPhilosophersSociety
So christians will get all up in arms because African nations have customs that a raped girl must be married by her rapist and they actively practice this... and are just astounded that even after being coerced into becoming Christian‘s, they still practice this… while claiming the bible is the literal word of god, that is 100% true, 100% right, and 100% just. Does this mean that by convincing them to stop this practice, they are false teachers?
so-soI gave up trying to be perfect a long time ago (I find it to be logically impossible and I‘m very literal like that).
But there are some lessons to be learned from reshma Saujanis story.

pickI have to admit that I did not know who Emily Ratajkowski was when I chose this book. She is brutally honest about her body, her life. This book left me feeling that she still has some work to do to get to a place of self love, but then don‘t we all? I think I like her, though. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
When you hear “the c-word,” what do you think of!
