This Is What Happens When Women Read: Julianna Glasse on Leaving Conservative Christianity (Part 2)

Julianna Glasse is back for Part 2, and this one is all about what comes after the leaving and what you build when you refuse to swap one savior for another. We hear about the three years Julianna spent being, in her words, “spiritually promiscuous:” traveling the world, visiting temples and mosques, dating freely and non-monogamously, deliberately not writing her book until she could show women how to be the hero of their own story rather than just trade one belief system for another. The intentionality of that choice is its own kind of radical act. We get into her Oxford dissertation's central revelation: that shame, fear, isolation, and psychological manipulation are the universal tools that oppressive religious systems use on women across cultures—and that once you name the internal mechanics rather than the external differences, a girl from Iowa and a girl from Saudi Arabia suddenly look at each other and say "me too." That insight became the curriculum at her organization, This Is What Happens When Women Read, which has already reached over four million women in 67 countries in just a year and a half, including a woman in Botswana who hosted 41 women for dinner in honor of Julianna's birthday. Julianna's advice to anyone secretly listening from a bathroom with headphones is some of the most quietly powerful we've heard: you have intrinsic worth. There is no gatekeeper between you and love or God or yourself. Be very private with your becoming. Ask of everything put before you—does this feel like love or does this feel like fear? We never got to the boat chapter in This Is What Happens When Women Read ; you'll have to read the book for that one. Trust us—you'll want to. Be sure to follow Julianna on Instagram , TikTok , and LinkedIn .

Patrick Cohen revient sur plusieurs affaires de scientifiques ayant diffusé des théories ou résultats erronés, comme Claude Allègre, Trofim Lyssenko, Jacques Benveniste ou Andrew Wakefield. À travers ces exemples, il montre comment fraudes, dérives idéologiques, erreurs méthodologiques et recherche de notoriété peuvent fragiliser la confiance dans la science. L’auteur souligne aussi le rôle des médias
