    Wired for Conspiracy

    Wired for Conspiracy

    On January 6, 2021 the scene at the United States Capitol got Bonnie and Rajeev thinking about what it takes for people to fall victim to conspiracy theories. In a flash they recognized the multiple points of connection in their SDA upbringing that groomed them, and millions of others, to be accepting of absurd ideas as fact and salvific.
    Bonnie and Rajeev recall various teachings that echo the kind of conspiracy theories perpetuated by QAnon and others in the sphere of donald trump.

    Homosexuality and Adventism

    Homosexuality and Adventism

    Bonnie and Rajeev explore the anti lgbtq stance of the Adventist church; a stance that is built upon biblical literalism even though a deeper exploration reveals the bible is not anti-loving relationships or sex...but it is clearly anti woman in many places. 
    Join Bonnie and Rajeev for a careful look at the hostile culture and texts in Genesis, Leviticus, Romans, 1 Corinthians and 1 Timothy.
