Gay Chutzpah: An LGBT Synagogue Thrives

By Susan Henking

…me part of the records of our changing world. I assume we all have a short list of ethnographies or other types of scholarship that influenced our professional development and served as models for our later work. On my list I mention, for example, John Middleton’s Lugbara Religion, Victor Turner’s The Forest of Symbols and Esther Newton’s Mother Camp.

…with other programs, such as various 12-step programs. It’s an information list of resources, not an endorsement list. However, when I attended JiM, staff passed out a stapled packet with “suggestions for follow-up and support.” The packet reveals that Wyler’s organization holds another retreat called The Journey Beyond, “an advanced training for men who have completed both the Journey into Manhood and the New Warrior Training Adventure.” In 2002,…

Satan, Contributor to Teen Vogue‘s New “Sodomy” Section?

By Mark D. Jordan

…going around. About two centuries later, Thomas Aquinas offers an expanded list of “unnatural” acts for both sexes—a list that becomes authoritative for much of Christian theology. For Thomas, the vice against nature includes masturbation (again), bestiality, same-sex relations (“the sodomitic vice”), and any form of heterosexual activity that makes use of an improper organ or “other monstrous and bestial forms of intercourse.” The last phrase is…

I’m Too Sexy for My Church: Will a Thriving Singles Scene Renew American Catholicism?

By Megan Sweas

…ce activities to social events. YMA now has 700 active people on its email list. Young adult groups can give the sense that the church wants to marry people off so they will have Catholic babies, but Jarzembowski says this is a misperception. He notes that the Catholic Church defines the young adult years—ages 19 to 39—as a time of transition, not only to marriage but also to school, first jobs, new cities and so on. Indeed, marriage has changed d…

…ticular situation. As opposed to, say, legislation that would… well, what? List all of the possible medical conditions in the world that would “count” as being actually deadly enough to warrant legal elective abortion, without missing or failing to consider even one that might someday come up? And, incidentally (we’d further point out), would it be politicians — most of whom have no medical training — crafting this legislation? Or, gosh, would the…

Creationism: Don’t Use the “C-Word”

By Lauri Lebo

…tack the teaching of evolution and other subjects that Christian fundamentalists hate because it contradicts their narrow religious worldview – reality be damned. The language that was inserted into the LSEA, which the Livingston school district properly understood to mean it could teach creationism, says that the Louisiana State Board of Elementary and Secondary Education must “allow and assist” school boards “to create and foster an environment”…

Republicans Claim Shari’ah Law Threatens Constitution

By Sarah Posner

…mad said, is charity. But Gaffney et al. portray shari’ah as a fixed legal code that a fifth column of “adherents” seek to implement in place of the Constitution (somehow, they don’t explain how one Muslim in Congress or the less than one percent of the U.S. adult population that is Muslim would accomplish this). Gaffney told the audience for his talk, which was directed at Congressional staffers: [I]n fact we are looking at a mortal threat to the…

Spiritual Envy: Michael Krasny’s Agnostic Quest

By Lisa Webster

…with breaking away from what I was anchored in, and trying to find my own code. But it was a code that was birthed from parents who were strong believers in a higher set of ways of living your life. And that’s what they bequeathed to me. So precious. Do you think that some people are just better at religion than others?
