…alent to killing a person, that is, a being who wants to go on living.” In Germany, his positions have been compared to the Nazis, and his lectures have been disrupted all over the world by groups representing the handicapped. According to my friend Angela Creager (one of Singer’s colleagues and a professor of the history of science at Princeton), Singer is a kind man moved by compassion. Nevertheless, he seems not to understand how his ideas stri…

Anti-Immigrant Fervor Is a Part of America’s Story

By Robert Bartholomew and Anja Reumschussel

…fugees to a trickle. During the entire period that America was at war with Germany, only 21,000 Jewish refugees were allowed into the country: a mere 10 percent of the overall quota. Put another way, about 200,000 men, women, and children were turned away in their hour of need, without any compelling factual reason—only fear and prejudice. The Catholic scare and the Jewish refugee panic parallel exaggerated fears over Muslim refugees and asylum-se…

Lila Rose and the Right Resurrect Malicious Child Predator Myth Putting LGBTQ People in Even Greater Danger

By R.L. Stollar

…n order of the world—like LGBTQ, and especially trans people.” During Nazi Germany, for example, it was common to link queer people to child sexual abuse to argue for their eradication. Adolf Hitler himself worried about how “a homosexual will generally seduce a whole host of boys, so that homosexuality really is as infectious and dangerous as the plague.” We don’t have to go as far, or as far back, as Nazi Germany, however, as this was a rhetoric…

Broken Courts, Big Lies and Genocide Rehearsal: A Review of 2022—And What We Can Expect From 2023

By Annika Brockschmidt

…tire democracies under threat. Sure, the recent right-wing coup attempt in Germany had no real chance of actually succeeding. But that can’t be the only way to measure dangers to democracy—because then, we might as well hand over our democracies to the Right as we speak. It’s comparable to a common response to the “fascism” question: If the only fascism we recognize is one that looks exactly like in the 1930s, with an openly fascist government and…

As Transition Looms, Jewish Studies is Mired in Controversy

By Shaul Magid

…movement was presenting a Judaism that could cohere with emancipation and promote the inclusion of Jews teaching Judaism in the academy. Its audience was as much the German academy as it was Jews. Whatever the case in 19th-century Germany, Greenberg argues that in late 20th-century America, “the problems of Jewish identity and Jewish survival are bound to emerge and haunt Judaic scholars with great intensity. This is because the crisis of moderni…

Vatican’s ‘Dumbed Down Version of an Old Argument’ on Gender Can’t Stop Changes in Catholicism

By Mary E. Hunt

…onservatives developed to counter them. Motivated by legal developments in Germany and at the United Nations and by the theoretical work of feminists in Germany and in the United States to conjure up an opposition more coherent and formidable than any he actually faced, Ratzinger was the first to declare war on ‘gender.’ Francis provided powerful tactics and strategies for this war, with his rhetoric of anticolonialism and his combination of warm…

Vatican Sexual Abuse Meeting Is Destined to Fail—To Stop the Problem or the Decline

By Mary E. Hunt

…he delict of sexual abuse of minors.” Theologian Doris Wagner-Reisinger of Germany accused Mr. Geissler of trying to kiss her in the confessional in 2009; she was told that he had admitted it and been punished. That was several years ago, and he has been on the loose and employed in the very office dedicated to deal with similar incidents. It is hard to make up these cases. Another jaw dropper of late is a report that Argentine Archbishop Gustavo…

Refugee Crisis in the Age of Trump: Getting Holocaust Analogies Wrong

By Sarah Posner

…caust to “score political points,” when Carson suggested that Jews in Nazi Germany could have prevented the Holocaust had they been armed with guns. While abuse of Nazi and Holocaust analogies is not limited to one political party, these two most recent and most widely reviled instances were uttered by Republicans running for president who claim that their Christian faith deeply informs their politics and values. Now the Syrian refugee crisis is c…

By Peter Montgomery

…nces is as impoverished as the concept of rights without responsibilities. Freedom for the pike is death for the minnow; freedom for the hunter is death for the hunted. When it comes to the struggle for life itself, or in the struggle of conscience and belief against coercive liberalism or angry atheism, all know that we are greatly indebted to Alliance Defending Freedom for providing the intellectual ballast, rapier like arguments, and a counter…

…o plan, strategize, and mobilize to advance shared core values to preserve freedom and promote justice.” Many of the prominent members of the Freedom Federation, including the Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission of the Southern Baptist Convention and Liberty Counsel, have expressed support for immigration reform.
