[mybeautifulchristianjourney]

by Kevin DeYoung | Scientific research is valuable insofar as it can reinforce the truths of the Bible and principles of natural law; namely, that when we observe the way the world works (and does not work), it becomes abundantly clear that marriage matters for human flourishing almost more than anything else...

Dear Evangelicals:

It started with the Council on Biblical Manhood and Womanhood, which sought to save us all from Romans 1:18-20, and the certain knowledge of how God made us. Women are women, and men are real men as the CBMW understands them, the CBMW insists, in spite of what can be seen, both under a microscope and in plain sight.

Enter The Federalist, which seeks to warn us about what they see as the phony masculinity of counterfeits like ... James Comey.

Whither America, friends? Whither America?

It's a darn good thing emo Comey doesn't head up the FBI anymore. You can't very well protect America from her enemies, both foreign and domestic, when you're constantly crying about how she's circling the drain. We need a real leader, who tackles bears, prances around in flight suits, and rides horses while half-naked, not this guy👇.

I mean, what was emo Jesus's deal, anyway? Weeping and 

yelling and vandalizing MAJOR religious shrines (Talk about Christian persecution!) And then, He has to go and ugly-cry about NESTING?!? With JERUSALEM?!? Sounds kinda ....

Well, you're the guardians of churchy masculinity and femininity. I'll let you decide.

21st Century Evangelical Environment -- Original Sin in an Era of Inherent Originality

In the current day, the views of Original Sin have been carried over from the second half of the 20th century with some modifications to be more specific to religious spaces as women have been fully accepted into the public sphere. Women are still seen as responsible for the Fall and subjugate to men as a result, but cultural integration of women into positions of leadership in politics and business have led theological authorities such as the Council for Biblical Manhood and Womanhood (CBMW) to backtrack on blanket application of Genesis to push women back into the home. In 2017, the CBMW released the Nashville Statement, stating that men and women are created equal and thus women can be accepted in the corporate sector, but as a result of their shouldering the blame for the Fall, women should ideally remain caretakers. Under this view, women should not hold positions of religious authority, especially over men. This becomes muddied when applied to women’s ministry in which women only hold religious authority over other women, usually with the support of their husbands in their endeavors. While the physical submission of women to men is less important in modern Original Sin discourse, the stress is now put on the prohibition of female theological authority over men.

In recent history, legislation entitling women to a place in the lecture hall, the rise of militant masculinity, and the Trump administration has heavily impacted the development of 21st century Original Sin discourse and women’s roles as an extension thereof. The passing of Title IX legislation entitled women to a place in higher education, which led to even further integration of women into the workplace. As a result, women began entering politics in higher numbers than they have historically, and no one is more emblematic of modern Evangelical Christian politicians than Sarah Palin. As Palin rose in the ranks, Evangelicals had to confront their views of women in power, which led to the allowance of women in secular spaces but doubling down on the prohibition of women in religious leadership. This also led to the rise of militant masculinity in the Christian Right, which culminated in the election of Donald Trump in 2016. This election emboldened conservative religious leaders to release the Nashville Statement a year later, solidifying modern views of the Edenic Fall.  

Recipes:

Fig and Pistachio Frangipane Tartlets

Ingredients:

Sweet Shortcrust Pastry:

2 1/3 cups all-purpose flour, plus extra for dusting

3/4 cup confectioners' sugar

1/4 tsp salt

3/4 cup plus 2 tbsp unsalted butter, fridge-cold, cut into cubes, plus 1 tbsp, melted for brushing

finely grated zest of 1 lemon (1 tsp)

1 large egg yolk

4 tsp water

Pistachio Frangipane Cream:

2/3 cup shelled pistachio kernels, plus more, blitzed in a food processor, for sprinkling (optional)

1/3 cup almond meal

1/4 cup all-purpose flour

1/8 tsp salt

1/2 cup plus 1 tbsp unsalted butter at room temperature

1/2 cup plus 1 tbsp granulated sugar

finely grated zest of 1 lemon (1 tsp)

2 large eggs, beaten

1 tbsp brandy (optional)

3 large, ripe figs, quartered or 6 smaller figs, halved

To make the sweet shortcrust pastry: Sift together the flour, confectioners’ sugar, and salt, and place in a food processor. Add the butter and lemon zest and pulse a few times, until the mixture has the consistency of fresh bread crumbs. Lightly whisk together the egg yolk and water and add this to the mixture; the dough will feel quite wet, but this is as it should be. Process once more, just until the dough comes together, then tip onto a clean, lightly floured work surface. Lightly knead the dough into a ball, cover loosely in plastic wrap and press gently to form a flattish disk. The pastry is very soft, so you need to keep it in the fridge for 1 hour (or up to 3 days).

Lightly brush the molds of a regular muffin pan with the melted butter and dust with flour, tapping away the excess.

When ready to roll out, allow the pastry to sit at room temperature for 30 minutes (if it has been in the fridge for more than a few hours) and place on a lightly floured work surface. Tap all over with a rolling pin to soften slightly before rolling it out ⅛ inch thick. Using a 4-inch round cookie cutter, cut out 12 circles and gently ease them into the muffin molds, pressing down to fill the molds. Reroll the scraps, if necessary, until you get twelve circles. Refrigerate for 1 hour before blind-baking the shells. The remaining third of the dough can be frozen for future use.

Preheat the oven to 300F.

Line the pastry in the muffin molds with parchment paper or paper muffin liners and fill with rice or dried beans. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the pastry shells are a light golden brown around the edges. Remove the rice and paper and set the shells aside to cool in the pan.

To make the pistachio frangipane cream: Place the pistachios in the small bowl of a food processor and grind until fine but not oily. Transfer to a small bowl, mix in the almond meal, flour, and salt, and set aside.

Place the butter, sugar, and lemon zest in the bowl of an electric mixer with the paddle attachment in place. Beat on medium speed for 1-2 minutes, until light but not too fluffy. Turn the speed to low and gradually add the beaten eggs. Don't worry if the mixture curdles a bit at this stage; it will be brought back together later. Add flour mixture, beat on low speed until combined and, finally, add the brandy (if using).

When ready to bake, use a piping bag or two tablespoons to fill the baked tart shells (still in the muffin pan) with the frangipane; it should rise about two-thirds of the way up the sides of the shells. Place a quarter (or half) of a fig in the middle of each tart, cut side facing up, pressing down very lightly so that it's slightly embedded in the mixture. Bake the tarts for about 25 minutes, until the frangipane starts to brown at the edges but the middle remains slightly soft.

Set aside to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before easing the tarts out of the molds and placing on a wire rack. The tarts can either be served warm or left to come to room temperature and sprinkled with blitzed pistachios, if desired.

The Making of Biblical Womanhood

A good book is one a person is ready to read more than once. Even though I finished Barr's book last year, I am ready to read it again. She is a great writer and a consummate scholar, and I hope she writes more in this genre. #BiblicalWomanhood #BethBarr

I heard about this book from a number of people, it was all the buzz, and I admit it. I was curious. Years ago, when I had first become the teacher of a large women’s Bible study, one of the women I worked closely with had begun involvement with the Council on Biblical Manhood and Womanhood, a group I had not heard of before, but soon would become very familiar with through this coworker. As…

Gender and Sexuality in the 2020 Election - CBMW

Not endorsing this analysis as a whole, but sharing it.

I did find this part alarming. I didn't realize that Biden was trying to role back existing religious freedom protections:

"Joe Biden is running for president on a platform committed to advancing LGBT rights. The centerpiece of his publicly released plan is the passage of the Equality Act. In fact, according to his campaign, enacting the Equality Act is the “top legislative priority” for Biden’s first 100 days. Notably, the Equality Act would codify sexual orientation and gender identity as protected classes in U.S. civil rights law, thereby granting them the same status as race and national origin. The act also undermines religious protections currently in place by stripping individuals of a Religious Freedom and Restoration Act (RFRA) claim or defense."

The Supreme Court to some extent added the meat of the Equality Act to its interpretation of the Civil Rights act of 1964. At the same time, the Court left in place religious freedom protections, including RFRA. Biden seems to want to remove the religious freedom protections, which would allow all sorts of people to attack churches, forcing them to decide between their consciences on the one hand and financial penalties or even jail on the other.

This week some 'Christians' signed the so called Nashville Statement. The Nashville Statement is an evangelical Christian statement of faith relating to human sexuality and gender roles authored by the Council on Biblical Manhood and Womanhood (CBMW) in Nashville, Tennessee. The Statement expresses support for an opposite-sex definition of marriage, for faithfulness within marriage, for chastity outside marriage, and for a link between biological sex and "self-conception as male and female." The Statement sets forth the signatories' opposition to LGBT sexuality, same-sex marriage, polygamy, polyamory, adultery, and fornication. It was criticized by egalitarian Christians and LGBT campaigners, as well as by several conservative religious figures.The Dutch Christian party which is in our government, the SGP, has signed this as well. 

Because I am outraged by this statement,it isn't the Middle ages anymore after all, for this week quotes about homophobia;

there's a tongue in my mouth, there's a lock on the door, and i can't imagine wishing for more

some blueberry pie life: chapter 3

in which the author posits that dean's (especially early) seasons attitudes about praying and god's existence might have these origins.

stream chapter title song Free Bird by AJJ

author's notes below

July, 1989

the camp anecdote, complete with John not believing Dean after his canoe went over and the counselor dying a week later and them camping in Pastor Jim's backyard, is from John's journal

Pastor Jim is mentioned throughout season 1. He appears in 1.21 and descriptions of the church and his body language are from there.

i played a little fast and loose with what denomination Jim is from. i'm assuming it's one that follows some kind of liturgical calendar so the two sermons are based on texts in order but other than that, forgive me.

the fact that CBMW was founded in 1987 which means i can call them out for being shitty by name in here was literally a gift to me personally. xoxo boys, we hope that you choke. that you choke.

in regards to Sam's interest in Pastor Jim's messages here: 2.13 establishes that Sam prays everyday and 4.02 and 4.07 establish that he believes in God so I'm trying to show where those beliefs might have originated.

December 24, 1991

most of the details here are from 3.8

"Screw you" is a call forward to 15.17

look i just think it's Much to have dean fully lose faith right when he gets the samulet.

Gladys Calthrop Frequently appearing in photographs with Noël Coward and the London elite was fiercely independent and often outspoken costumer and set designer, Gladys Calthrop (1894 - 1980). With her angular jaw and short cut hair Calthrop encapsulated the individuality of 1920s style and first-wave feminism. Calthrop met Coward in Rapallo, Italy in 1921 whilst on holiday. Coward was singing at Mrs Astley Cooper’s English Club. During his performance Coward was “horrified” when a “smartly dressed” woman in the front row appeared to be “fighting an attack of convulsive giggles with singular lack of success” - the woman was Calthrop. The pair soon became inseparable, discussing life and death, religion and art. Coward later described her as “intimately concerned with all my best work, and so intrinsically part of my failures and successes.” Calthrop’s theatre career commenced when Coward asked if she would design the costumes and the sets for ‘The Vortex’ which opened at the ‘Everyman Theatre’ in Hampstead in 1924. This production would be Coward’s first great commercial success. Calthrop travelled to New York after ‘The Vortex' was taken to Broadway and was quickly wooed by Eva Le Gallienne, actress and founder of the ‘Civic Repertory Theatre’ who was romantically involved with Mercedes de Acosta, a well-known writer. Dorothy “Dickie” Fellowes-Gordon wrote that as soon as she arrived in New York, “Gladys Calthrop had gone off with Mercedes de Acosta’s girlfriend … Noël (Coward) shook his head and said ‘There’ll be trouble now!’” https://www.instagram.com/p/CbMw-T1s3DN/?utm_medium=tumblr
