CALLING ANY AND ALL THOSE WITH JEWISH, CHRISTIAN, OR MUSLIM BACKGROUNDS.
Please rb for larger sample size or broader discussion! I would love to hear many perspectives on this.
(And yes, I understand fully that Judas is never mentioned in both pentateuchal or quranic exegesis and is only relevant to christian texts. Hence why I am curious about the perspectives outside of western christian orthodoxy.)
If anyone would like elaboration on the above perspectives, feel free to ask!

So. This is a personal life update of sorts.
Hello everyone, I'm trying to think of how to word what I need to say. I'm going through a big life transition of the spiritual kind, and it's forced me to think more deeply about where I am in my religious journey and where I want to be. As such, the content of this blog is likely going to change a little.
That is to say, there's probably going to be a lot less queer Christian specific content for a while. Don't panic! I'm still here and I'm still queer! But I want to avoid confining myself and my spiritual growth and understanding.
When I look around spaces like this, most of the people I see are queer people who have been raised religious and are deconstructing that framework to find a more liberating path, and that's amazing and empowering. However, I'm walking down this road from the opposite direction. I'm constructing. I'm completely acclimatized to being queer and out and loud about it, but it's being Christian that's the new frontier for me. At the moment, that's what I need to learn how to do. I know that my Christianity will always be inextricable from my queerness, but now I want to get to the stage where my queerness is inextricable from my Christianity. I want to grow and develop that part of myself and deepen my understanding of Christianity before I talk any more about its relationship to queerness and lgbtq+ experience. I need to learn what it means to me to be a Christian in its own right.
This blog will unequivocally remain a space of safety and solidarity for queer people and queer Christians though. I love all of you and I will always believe wholeheartedly that God does too. ❤️
I'll still do my best to answer any lgbtq related asks or comments and offer my support to anyone who needs it, just bear in mind that there's a good chance I don't know what I'm doing anymore than you.
If you've read this far without judgement, thank you for your patience and understanding. I'm going through this struggle right now, but I have faith that I will come out the other side of this a better rounded person.

Bible Verses You Don't Hear About
"Don’t think that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I did not come to bring peace, but a sword. I have come to make this happen:
‘A son will be against his father,     a daughter will be against her mother, a daughter-in-law will be against her mother-in-law. A person’s enemies will be members of his own family."
(Matthew 10:34-36)
Jesus is love, y'all. lol

"Nah I dont think the people who study the bible are THAT obbessed like maybe I am the only one seeing things--"
*Historians fighting over the authenticity of Jonathan/David*
*Historians trying to find out which angel or saint syncronised with what god in certain sections and making analogies everywhere.*
*Gnostisim*
*The early church mysteries and inner fightings*
*Going at each others throats for whenever or not Paul was a closested gay man or nah.*
"Okay so I was wrong."

White people talking over actual minorities: a tale as old as time
Non-Jewish people: Actually, "Never Again" is just for Jews (an unironic, actual, real post on tumblr.com)
Actual Jewish people: Chain themselves to the White House fence to protest the genocide in Palestine

does anyone know when in history the abrahamic religeons diverged in terms of opinions towards alcohol?
like, wine for jews is literally a religous drink. we even have a holliday where youre meant to get drunk.
but christians and muslims consider alcohol a sin.
what happened?

Hey Jumblr, I require your assistance
In an effort to be more inclusive and to combat the oversaturation of Christmas at the elementary school I work at, I try to include Hannukkah stories during storytime (I'm a school librarian).
However, as we don't have too many Jewish students, I usually have to quickly explain the holiday and its related vocab when I read one of these books.
I was wondering if you could read my explanations for some of the terms and check for accuracy & potentially suggest a better way of explaining these terms to Grade 1s who know nothing about the holiday (it needs to be quick explanations so we don't lose track of the story).
=-=-=
Dreidel - It's a kind of game using a square top with letters written on each side. Each letter means a different thing. The points are usually counted using chocolate coins, so winning is extra sweet because you get the most chocolate!
Latke - It's a kind of potato pancake. Kind of like a hashbrown patty but even tastier, because it has more stuff in it.
Menorah - It's a name for a special kind of candleholder used during Hannukkah. It has a place for nine candles, and every night of Hannukkah you use the candle in the middle to light another candle.
Rabbi - You know how in Christianity the person who talks in front of everyone is called a priest or a pastor and in Islam they're called an imam? A rabbi is like that, but for the religion of Judaism.
Synagogue - It's the building where Jewish people go to worship. The buildings where people go to worship have different names depending on which religion the building belongs to; Christians have churches, Muslims have mosques, and Jewish people have synagogues.
Note: I have a good starter set of Hannukkah stories thanks to some suggestions from a Jewish coworker, but if you have any recs for Hannukkah stories (or stories during other Jewish holidays) for kids in Kindergarten to Grade 5 I'd be more than happy to add them to my "to buy" list. :)

are you pro abrahamisms?
Lumping all Abrahamic religions together and treating them as if they're all functionally the same is absurd.
