Thank you so much for this! As a Jew with a PhD in early Christian theology I find myself defending Judaism from accusations of patriarchy and that pesky violent “Old Testament” God. But I also often get defensive around “recovering” Christian atheists who tend to be virulently anti-Christian. And around lots of people with very simplistic views of Islam. But most days I get to focus on being a library director who has the pleasure of supporting amazing Open Ed work with people like Karen Cangialosi, and getting to people like you. That helps a lot!
