Evangelicalism Meet Critical Race Theory?

As part of RantWoman's quixotic quest both to maintain high standards of Quaker heresy and to make even tiny chinks in the wall of electronic bilge that is Rep. Lauren Boebert's Twitter feed, today's #CivisFor Lauren commentary is about Critical Race Theory.


Rep. Boebert: "Critical Race Theory should be renamed to be more honest - Self-Hate 101: Introduction to Racism."


RantWoman thinks Rep. Boebert might want to  consider some comments from people of faith.

Ed Litton Addresses the Southern Baptist Convention


For people who follow issues in the Southern Baptist Convention even  a little, Rev. Litton was also just elected President of that body.


RantWoman can't tell from Rep. Boebert's Twitter feed whether she has any kind of religious practice. Her Congressional website bio has a lot about water rights and land management in the western US but the site mentions nothing about religion. Wikipedia says she became a born-again Christian in 2009. In short, RantWoman has no idea whether the two items shared here might speak to Rep. Boebert on religious grounds but RantWoman is being faithful to her call to offer them.

As for Quixotic quests and Quaker heresy, start with the clearly prepared message in the video.


Yes, well, probably too much both for Quaker worship and for Twitter but still
