- Description
- For too long has the Bible been colonized, dominated and (ab)used by church and state, especially the religious and political right. The recent quickening of such (ab)use, from Washington to Baghdad, is but the latest chapter in a much longer history. And biblical scholars have readily let these institutions off the hook, turning a blind eye to exploitation and oppression carried out in the name of the Bible.
