…the scene, it becomes representative. The sentiments experienced fix themselves upon it, for it is the only concrete object upon which they can fix themselves. It continues to bring them to mind and to evoke them even after the assembly has dissolved, for it survives the assembly, being carved upon the instruments of the cult, upon the sides of rocks, upon bucklers, etc. By it, the emotions experienced are perpetually sustained and revived.

When they gathered in Dallas in early November 2021 to wait for JFK Jr. to appear, it looked from the outside like yet another in a series of Q-adjacent prophecies, a whole branch believing JFK Jr. was in hiding, warring against the Deep State, and would return to run as Trump’s vice president. Protzman makes prophecies based on three particular strands of QAnon (and outside) thought: English Gematria, originally a Jew…

This Quote About ‘Pregnant’ Church From Outgoing SBC President is Deeply Troubling For Anyone Concerned About Sexual Abuse

…not recoil in fear.” The same is true for the Southern Baptist preacher in 2021. Greear’s rhetoric, incidental though it may have been, disciplines women to see themselves as belonging to men, to internalize male authority in destructive ways. The metaphor encourages men to align with the deity who has the power to control and punish. It is not, I submit, an effective way to confront sexual abuse in the church. It is biblical, though.
