Ok now we are getting into it with Genesis! Listen in on our reaction to reading The Woman's Bible take on the start of everything. The beginning of earth, animals, humans, and of course, sin. Stanton and her pals make some convincing points about reading Eve as the complex main character. They highlight where the wiley english interpreters took liberties and tell us more about the gorgeous allegories hidden in the classic creationist tale of how it all started. Plus other stuff that still affects us to this very day.
Did you know woman is the ancient form of womb-man? Let that sink in.
