Yeah, there's a lot in that episode title. But then again, there's a lot of weirdness with the divine Spirit in the Fourth Gospel.

• How might Spirit language draw us away from our bodies, when it's meant to be about God coming home to them?
• What does Jesus' lines in John 20 about receiving the Life Breath and then forgiving and retaining sins have to do with our capacity to violently blame and shame minority groups?
• Why is it more faithful to the sacred text to ascribe she/her pronouns to the Life-Breath when they're he/him in the Greek?
• If most persons called sinners in the gospels are the exiled and shamed, not the Cosmically Terminally Naughty that Augustine was so snagged up on, what does forgiving sins mean for churches?

Cut to around minute 26 onward for the real fire. :)
