By Sunnivie Brydum

…p for the marginalized and the oppressed, and to reject the categorical hatred that this year’s GOP nominee has built his campaign upon. Originally started by the right-wing, anti-LGBT National Religious Broadcasters, the hashtag #ChristiansVote was intended to amplify faithful support for the so-called traditional values that some claim the Trump campaign, and the Republican Party in general, stand for. (Nevermind that the GOP candidate routinely…

…unding in favor of two less established groups whose applications were not recommended by career DOJ officials. The groups in question, the Nevada-based Hookers for Jesus, and the South Carolina-based Lincoln Tubman Foundation, had their grants pushed through by Katharine Sullivan, head of the Orwellianly named Office of Justice Programs, against the formal recommendations of career Justice Department officials which had been made based on the rep…

By Evan Derkacz

…of Pappy Van Winkle over his shoulder. We get it. But besides getting likkered up, what have we done with all this anxiety and nervous energy? Brought it to Twitter of course. There were far too many insightful, hilarious, scathing, ironic, and otherwise round-up-worthy posts to include here, but this should give a little taste of the conversations, states of mind, and concerns of our de facto town square over the past 72 hours or so. *** 1.

The 11 Best #RealClergyBios Tweets

By Anita Little

Over the weekend, the #realclergybios hashtag spread like Gospel on Twitter, with countless pastors and seminarians shelling out hard truths about everything from doubting one’s vocation to fighting for the church’s solvency to—if you’re a woman or non-white pastor—dealing with daily microaggressions. RD spoke to Indiana-based Presbyterian minister Mihee Kim-Kort, who launched #realclergybios as an offshoot of #realacademicbios, to get the story…

Encyclileaks: Was the ‘Laudato Si’ Leak a Sin or Just a Scoop?

By Kaya Oakes

…ousands of writers were looking forward to a sleepless night of encyclical reading followed by the bleary-eyed composition of hot takes and appearances on talk shows and radio on the morning of June 18, when the Vatican officially released it to the world. Then something weird happened: the encyclical leaked three days early. The journalist who wrote an introduction to the leaked draft in the Italian magazine L’Espresso, Sandro Magister, quickly w…

By Anita Little

…t a trickle, but a landslide of white evangelicals who helped to usher the real-life Biff Tannen to the seat of power.

Evangelical Prof’s ‘Biblical Comma’ Tweet Exposes Paradox of ‘Respectable’ Evangelical Anti-Intellectualism

By Chrissy Stroop

After the Trump years and the January 6 insurrection, in which recognizably evangelical prayers and symbols featured prominently, America’s conservative, mostly white evangelical Christians aren’t exactly popular. But just when you think your expectations for this authoritarian demographic can’t get any lower, some “respectable” evangelical comes along and invokes the “biblical comma.” In case you were wondering, this ostensibly holy punctuation…

Is Proselytizing Ever Okay? Are We All Proselytizing All The Time?

By Chrissy Stroop

Excuse me, reader, but would you have a moment to talk about the obnoxious practice of asking people to talk about “our” lord and savior? In a previous piece for RD, one of the reasons I gave for why America’s conversation about Christianity is “fundamentally unserious” is that our elite public sphere systemically silences “the voices of leavers, nonbelievers, and religious minorities in discussing Christianity and ‘religious freedom.’” As a case…
