When people ask me if I believe sex before marriage is “sin.” I tell them they’re asking the wrong question.

We SHOULD be asking whether mainstream Christianity’s theology of sex does any good. It doesn’t.

History shows that it has taken more lives than it has saved.

The sooner we can acknowledge that the Bible does not present a single, consistent sexual politic, the sooner we can acknowledge that mainstream Christianity& #39;s theology of sex is rooted in patriarchy and racism.

Sex must no longer be used as a public weapon.

Intellectually dishonest people will read this and say "oh you just wanna be out here sleeping with any old body!"

When the fact of the matter is, I& #39;m saying this because people are dying. People are experiencing sexual violence & emotional abuse all in the name of bad theology

Here are a few books that I highly recommend to anyone looking to learn more about sex & the Bible

“Sexuality & the Black Church”x Kelly Brown Douglas
“Unprotected Texts” x Jennifer Knust
“Discovering Eve” x Carol Meyers
“Sexism & God” x Reuther
“Womanist Midrash”xWil Gafney
