Gay Christian Geek: February 2015
http://gaychristiangeek.blogspot.com/2015_02_01_archive.html
A nerd's-eye view of feminism, theology, and pop culture. Wednesday, February 18, 2015. I am bedeviled by fits of rationality. Remember that you are dust, and to dust you shall return.". Have a great day! Conversation between me and the Canon to the Ordinary when I got Ashes to Go at the train station this morning. When I think rationally about existence, I am unable to function. In four billion years the sun will swallow the earth, so what's the point of writing this assignment? Is not a good. Look, I l...

Gay Christian Geek: White Christianity, Black Anger
http://gaychristiangeek.blogspot.com/2014/11/white-christianity-black-anger.html
A nerd's-eye view of feminism, theology, and pop culture. Wednesday, November 26, 2014. White Christianity, Black Anger. I request a lot of random stuff from NetGalley. Because I have a book-hoarding problem. Most recently, I read a book called Unoffendable. To my fellow white people I say: How. How dare we commit this twisted sin of white supremacist apologetics? Something they need to hear. I don't have answers, I don't have solutions, I don't have a call to action. All I have is this little flame,...

Gay Christian Geek: May 2014
http://gaychristiangeek.blogspot.com/2014_05_01_archive.html
A nerd's-eye view of feminism, theology, and pop culture. Friday, May 30, 2014. Is Masculinity Inherently Toxic? A while ago, Red Durkin posted something on Facebook celebrating Laverne Cox and Janet Mock, expressing her delight at having two such fantastic people as the highest-profile trans women in the US at the moment. One trans man's response was a jocular wish that the guys had anyone half as good to represent us. As he pointed out, who do we have? What I want to know is: why. Western late-capitali...

Gay Christian Geek: March 2015
http://gaychristiangeek.blogspot.com/2015_03_01_archive.html
A nerd's-eye view of feminism, theology, and pop culture. Friday, March 6, 2015. UKIP, Queerness, and Non-Reproductivity. This week, Vice published an amazing piece about the UKIP spring conference. The whole article is worth a read – every time you think it must have exhausted the cornucopia of preposterousness, along comes another sentence like. A leaflet that was handed out as he spoke helpfully pointed out that foreign aid is actually spent on "giving dance lessons to Africans". That queers cannot re...

Gay Christian Geek: April 2014
http://gaychristiangeek.blogspot.com/2014_04_01_archive.html
A nerd's-eye view of feminism, theology, and pop culture. Friday, April 18, 2014. Good Friday Reflections: Depression and Redemption. I recognize that thing. I said to myself the first time I saw Venom tightening its grip around Peter even as he fought to be free. It's inside me. 8220;There is nothing outside a person that by going in can defile, but the things that come out are what defile.” (Mark 7:15). Or is it just the darkness of mental illness, a chemical imbalance in my brain that has to be treate...

Gay Christian Geek: June 2014
http://gaychristiangeek.blogspot.com/2014_06_01_archive.html
A nerd's-eye view of feminism, theology, and pop culture. Saturday, June 28, 2014. Things I Read: Justin Holcomb's 'Know the Creeds and Councils' and 'Know the Heretics'. This review is based on digital review copies provided by NetGalley. Justin Holcomb's new books from Zondervan, Know the Heretics. Know the Creeds and Councils. Make good companion pieces for the lay reader who wants greater familiarity with the history of the Christian faith. Is the stronger work, but. Has a more important goal. Is one...

Gay Christian Geek: chewed up by the machine
http://gaychristiangeek.blogspot.com/2015/02/chewed-up-by-machine.html
A nerd's-eye view of feminism, theology, and pop culture. Thursday, February 12, 2015. Chewed up by the machine. Laverne Cox is going to be in a CBS pilot. Has gathered a goddamn 200-person all-trans choir. The BBC is making a transgender sitcom. I'm mourning, and I'm goddamn furious. Look, I love TV, probably more than anyone I know. I watch a ton of it, I write about it. Reflects real life so perfectly that, on a decent show, I'd think it was a brilliant piece of meta-commentary). Two hundred trans fol...
