Anyone Else See A Problem?


Vandy 'divinity' professor to speak

Dr. Amy-Jill Levine, professor of New Testament studies at Vanderbilt University Divinity School, will speak on "Sex in the Texts" at the Memphis Ministers Association meeting at 10:30 a.m. Thursday at Idlewild Presbyterian Church.

Levine, a Jewish female supremacist, proudly describes herself as a "Yankee feminist who teaches in a predominantly Protestant divinity school in the buckle of the Bible Belt," Levine attempts to combine historical-critical rigor, literary-critical sensitivity, and a frequent dash of humor with a commitment to exposing and expunging anti-Jewish, sexist, and homophobic theologies.*

At 7:30 p.m. Thursday, Levine will speak on 'gender issues' and sexuality at Temple Israel. On Saturday, she will discuss "Seeing the miracles through Jewish Eyes" from 9:30 to 11:30 a.m. at Germantown Baptist Church. She will speak on "The DaVinci Code" from 1 to 3 p.m. at the church.
