I listen to Bart Ehrman’s podcast (who is a Bible scholar), and one of his new episodes is about the Secret Gospel of Mark, which is a fascinating fragmentary non-canonical gospel that contains uh homoerotic elements. (I wrote a long post partially about it, it’s one of my cohost posts I’m most proud of: https://cohost.org/cameronvansant/post/2862877-a-secret-gospel-reve )
I’m dreading listening to the podcast because I know Ehrman is very skeptical of it (from his blog) and I’m pretty sure he believes it’s a modern hoax. I’m struggling to subject myself to the podcast because like. I need it to be real, lol.
So uh. Basically I’m like “oh right this is how evangelicals feel when they interact with real Bible scholarship” lol.
