CW: expansion on fears of women's sexuality, Xmas, religion
Drew the heptagrams and lit the LED tealights.
Rewatched Jack Spong at Chautauqua in 2014.
Jack pushed a non-supernatural Christianity.
And has certain of Matthew, Mark, Luke, John and Paul using metaphors in stories.
Not all Biblical literalists appreciate Jack.Jack goes through Jesus's transgressive women ancestors in this vid. And Mary
From before Trump's 2016 election. Many weren't disillusioned.

CW: naturalist reading around the Christian Mary (Jesus' mum): Spong
In the Christian #LiturgicalYear, we're now got a a woman giving birth. Everyone, and all of our ancestors, made it through some such event.
#JackSpong in the video, from a naturalist (non-supernatural), historical (there was a Jesus) view, looks at how this woman was presented in the New Testament writings.
One of Spong's ideas is that some stories of Jesus were developed later to make a liturgical year.
