@ai_valentin But there are multiple Christianities, each in different space vis-a-vis engagement w/ Jews and atonement for a history of antisemitism. Again, I'm not 100% sure how to place RHE on this.Permalink On twitter.com

@ai_valentin From my vantage point, there's a fundamental recent divide in Christianity on the question of ecumenicalism w/r/t non-Christians. On whether there is still a project of converting those of other faiths at all.Permalink On twitter.com

@ai_valentin People from the more ecumenical side are likely to engage w/ Jews in fundamentally different ways. More likely to be invited to and attend Jewish seders than create our own.Permalink On twitter.com

@ai_valentin Again, this (from RHE) is new to me, but the argument feels like the core of Black Liberation Theology, which emerges from the work of seeing ourselves in parallel to the enslaved Jews in our forcibly imposed religion. rachelheldevans.com/blog/inspired-excerpt-resistance-storiesOn twitter.com

@ai_valentin Which is to say, that our ethics of religious encounter must acknowledge that religious traditions are not monolithic but fractured, and leave room for interchange, especially at the margins. Indeed, interchange is one primary source of valuable transformation.Permalink On twitter.com
