Episode 298: Purity Culture, Date Rape, and Porn: plus Joash Thomas and the Justice of Jesus

Send us Fan Mail (buzzsprout.com/242918/fan_mail/new)
Two major studies today prove what we've been saying: purity culture makes people unable to recognize marital and date rape as actual rape, and male porn use hurts women regardless of their attitude toward it—though religious women suffer more because of the scripts we've been given. Then I interview Joash Thomas about his book The Justice of Jesus, where he explains how Western Christianity lost biblical justice because colonizers taught a purely "spiritual" gospel to benefit themselves. We've got to understand that following Jesus costs us something!
