finishing up the series on evangelical child abuse tonight for publication tomorrow. this has been a real weight on me-- one that feels important. it is a topic i will expand on in my book. but it has been challenging to write gracefully & factually about so much pain.
every time i dive into the evangelical world i find something new and staggeringly bizarre (or see something I knew about in a new context). Answers in Genesis is something else (as are the Hams' books on childrearing). Also I got the Keepers At Home handbook! It's so... pink.

next week i'll write about something light, like why antivaxxers are obsessed with the holocaust. lol.
I read all or parts of 21 books for this series. In like, three and a half weeks. Bananas behavior.
