"Sometimes, as I spent this morning listening to a podcast recounting abuse in conservative Christian communities (in this case, Amish communities) and how the Bible was used in these communities to excuse CSA and marital rape - I wonder - how can we even turn again to a book that has served as a sanction-er for so much evil. Is it even worth trying anymore?"
