In Galatians, we are also reminded that “there is no Jew or Greek, slave or free, male or female.” What say you?

I say that when one omits a key part of the quote, it makes for the equivalent of fake news... you left out the part after the last comma in the quote:

"There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus." It means that no matter who you are, or your religion, you are the same to God/Christ - beloved children; and we shouldn't forget that by identifying so strongly with anything else in our temporary earthly existence.
