CW: mention of conservative views on abortion, spiritual bypassing, overall spiritual trauma, mention of sacrifice
Happy Samhain, Halloween, All Hallow's Eve, All Saints' Eve, Reformation Day -- whatever you may call it, we hope that you celebrate it well. This week Bonnie and Daniel interview Delaney Reddell, a teacher of Celtic folklore in Los Angeles. Delaney has her MSc from the University of Edinburgh in Literature and Society: Enlightenment, Romanticism, and Victorian. She is also engaged to a dope guy in Ireland and will be moving there in a year, meaning she has spent a lot of time in the culture. Delaney walks us through how Samhain got us to Halloween and later to Harvest Festivals because hAlLoWeEn Is SaTaNiC and all of that stupidity.
Later we discuss a stupid article by the Gospel Coalition where a woman equates abortion to hiring a hit man (what?). Afterwards, Daniel shares a run-in with Pastor Bruce.
