The “Doubting Thomas” of the Bible has special resonance for our communities. Fear of doubt will reliably illicit a negative reaction and anxiety for many regardless of the faith tradition (e.g. Islam, Christianity, Yoruba/Vodún, Pantheist, Spiritualist).
On this episode we chronicle the fear of losing faith, spotlight the exile of a groundbreaking Pentecostal Bishop turned heretic and critique Anti-Atheist bias in rhetoric, behavior and policy for Black resistance and Social Justice movements.
