In 1997, while Rosaria Butterfield was researching the Religious Right “and their politics of hatred against people like me,” she wrote an article against the Promise Keepers. In 1999, after repeatedly reading the Bible in large chunks for her research, Rosaria converted to Christianity. She recently gave a convocation at Liberty University, a Christian university located in central Virginia in the US. The bigger story here is not that Rosaria Butterfield is calling out heresy in church circles, but that Liberty University, by platforming her, is taking a stand against liberal theology when many so-called Christian universities are either compromising or have completely lost their way.
