Runaway Eve

Culture Wars and a Few Bad Men


Listen Later

Culture wars. You’ve heard the term and have likely seen it in practice, whether or not you realized it. In this episode I’m taking a shallow dive into how culture wars manifest in Evangelical Christian culture. After a very brief history lesson, we will look at two examples—one viral, one personal. We will also discuss two very, very bad men, who just so happen to have something in common. Spoiler alert, it’s the religion and the very culture these people are so hellbent on preserving.

Content warning: I take a diversion to discuss the BYU “armpit sex” panic, and it’s just… very icky
