The Argument You Were Never Given
You were probably taught, in some form or another, that the body is the problem. Not in those words, maybe. But in the instruction to sit still and not fidget during prayer. In the discomfort around menstruating women entering temples. In the fasting that frames hunger as spiritual discipline and fullness as indulgence. The body, in much of the devotional culture you grew up in, is something to be managed, quieted, eventually left behind.
