“Women, Sex and Gender in Ancient Christianity”

“Roman Catholic feminist theology,”

“The sexualized language of repentance.”

“Queer theory, gender theory and gender performance in early Christianity.”

“the largest single constituency, King said, is Roman Catholic women, whose Church denies them the priesthood”

Shocking.

“Her scholarship has been a kind of sustained critique of what she calls the “master story” of Christianity: a narrative that casts the canonical texts of the New Testament as divine revelation that passed through Jesus in “an unbroken chain” to the apostles and their successors—church fathers, ministers, priests and bishops who carried these truths into the present day.”

So she already starts with a decided bias in her thinking and an agenda to substantiate her beliefs.
