"Religion contributes to--or directly causes--gender inequity."
Particularly in the case of women, this statement is certainly true--both historically, and even now in terms of religions. Women have been marginalized, oppressed, shunned, vilified, and more by a variety of religions, and not just limited to Christianity.
In this episode, I engage in a wide-ranging interview with author, blogger, feminist and atheist Karen L. Garst, who wrote a fascinating work interviewing 22 women from a variety of Judeo-Christian religions who have left it all behind--and who are finding out what life can be like without religion.
