Mary: as a Biblical scholar, I can’t recommend this right-wing funded Netflix biopic My critiques of Mary centre around two themes. One is the way it perpetuates conservative ideals around women and gender. The other is its misrepresentations of Jews and Judaism.

In which @drmjcwarren.bsky.social offers important critiques of Netflix's right-wing "Mary" film, which only consulted one "biblical scholar" who's a MAGA pastor & "digital strategy consultant" who's done no graduate work at all in any relevant field.
