A Better Form of Atheism: Rescuing the Christian Tradition from Religion

By Emily Manuel

…eligious framework through which we interpret it. So we’re not necessarily talking about God, we’re talking about human beings. My reading is relevant to our concerns in our world, and not primarily about salvation or the Church. I object to the de-mythologizing approach in that it’s fundamentally arbitrarily and that it always has Christianity and theology in retreat. It’s trying to be acceptable to a liberal audience, and it’s doomed to be unper…

Religion Comes to its Senses

By Brook Wilensky-Lanford

…ern. Actually when I lecture about the book probably 50, 60 percent of the talk is on the similarities, and then I’m very clear about saying these things are also divisive: drums divide people, incense divides people, crosses divide people. It’s very explicit. And then at the end of my talk people are always saying, “Well how come you’re only seeing similarities?” And it’s this curious thing. I began to realize we’re trained to see similarities, a…

Devil’s Bookmark: How Not to Defend God

By Bernard Schweizer

…gels, and miracles exist; in the other they don’t. So, if the two brothers talk about God, they talk about two fundamentally different things: Jimmy talks about God like he talks about his brother; his brother, on the other hand, talks about God like he talks about Dr. Jekyll or Hamlet or Emma Bovary. To pretend that the two brothers talk about the same thing would be a logical fallacy. And this is where Paul Copan stumbles. Surely, even a limited…

Jay Bakker on LGBT Justice and the Demands of Grace

By Candace Chellew-Hodge

…wants to say something about me, I’ll sit down and listen. To have people talk about you who won’t even show their face or you’ve never met before and wants to write about how horrible you are, there’s nothing you can do. I can’t stop them and I definitely won’t fight them. It’s just a waste of time. In your book, you talk about your fear of going to your congregation and telling them about your own pending divorce. You wrote that “they gave me t…

How Anne Frank Turned Up At Occupy

By Peter Manseau

…ness—because, really, what if? For Auslander, Englander, and Roth, what we talk about when we talk about Anne Frank is mainly a question of Jewish identity. Yet Jeff Mangum’s performance, and the chorus that greeted him when he asked the occupiers to sing along his ode to “the only girl I ever loved,” suggests that Anne Frank has also come to mean something else. Translated into sixty languages, with tens of millions of copies sold, The Diary of a…

“As Orthodox As They Come”: A Backstage Conversation With Rob Bell

By Andrew Aghapour and Michael Schulson

…ich at this scale seems so small? A friend of mine always says, “If you’re talking about God, you’re talking about the metaphor for the mystery of the infinitely unknowable.” To me, the power of a faith tradition would be that it puts language on these deeper forces and realities. If at any moment you’re one discovery away from your story being silly? It’s like the dude at JPL [NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory] who is head of all things that we la…

Trump’s Pathological Devotion to Border Walls Isn’t Political, It’s Theological

By Alana Massey

…amilies were divided by it. *** In the wake of the scandal over “biblical” talk, the particularly unsavory history of Romans 13 being used to justify atrocities was splashed across media and many were quick to appeal to the better known words of Jesus. Michael Harriott of The Root gave the most comprehensive and damning chronicle of the passage being used to justify slavery as ‘Christian’ to slaveowners, to slaves themselves; of how it was invoked…

To Be Queer, Gifted, and Black: A Conversation with Theologian Pamela Lightsey

By Nyasha Junior

…Black women historically been erased from social justice activism? When we talk about Black Lives Matter, we’re talking about all black lives. What has often taken place is that social media has lifted up the men and responded to that violence in ways that it has not responded to violence against black women. Fortunately, pushback has started, and Say Her Name is a direct result of understanding that not enough attention has been given to the live…

“Living in Favor, Abundance, and Joy” (Unless You’re Gay)

By Candace Chellew-Hodge

…inary. I was raised in this but in front of the camera. People say I don’t talk about sin, but I do talk about how we live our life and making good choices. I believe the greatest sin is to miss the mark and not know our creator. MORGAN: When you see civil partnerships being sanctioned. Do you think that’s wrong? OSTEEN: Yes, I think it’s wrong, but I’m not going to bash those people. I’m not going to be against those people. They’re good people….

Making Fun of Mormonism

By Max Mueller

…the afterlife depart, becoming the god of his celestial body. More planet talk happened just last week on the Chronicle of Higher Education’s “Brainstorm Blog.” Michael Ruse, philosopher of biology, asserted that it is legitimate not to vote for a presidential candidate whose theology is “totally barmy. We can become gods with our own planets!… No coffee and tea is bad enough. But the underwear!” In October, in a column called “Anne Frank, a Morm…
