…d recently, an ancient Catholic theological concept, “church militant” is being repurposed for twenty-first century political gain, even as the church itself rejects such interpretations.

Why Natural Disasters Were Perfect Timing for Anti-LGBT Nashville Statement

By Kristel Clayville

…of a camera and blame LGBT people for natural disasters. Ultimately, this reinforcement of gender complementarity and the divine origin of gender differences, framed as a crucial part of what is good about the natural world God created, is a simple re-entrenchment of a position that confirms the stability of the natural world.

By Kathryn Lofton

…can’t find out easily themselves. Some of my best quotations in this book come from compulsive binge viewers who blog, Ivory soap advertisements, Kim Kardashian’s Twitter feed, and the Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations for the U.S. Senate, so my archive isn’t exactly informationally obscure. What I am trying to do is to get people to think about their entertainments and absorptions. Why can’t you stop clicking hyperlinks? Why do you hate-w…

Why the Lewd Trump Tapes Won’t Matter (As Much As You Think) in White Christian America

By Paul Harvey

…ainly means they try). And, like Ralph Reed, Tony Perkins, and the usual laundry list, they might see the recent “comments” as “inappropriate” or as the usual Trump “hyperbole” or “pecadilloes” (as evangelical pseudo-intellectual Eric Metaxas sees them), but “Killary” must be stopped or the Republic will cease to exist. What’s a little “locker-room banter” in comparison to those stakes? I’ve pondered the motivations driving people I know very well…

…e protection of the state.” Of course same-sex marriage is already forbidden under law in Russia. The amendment push follows the passage of the country’s notorious anti-gay “propaganda law.” In a story about the new constitutional amendment push, RT.com reminds us, “In 2013 President Vladimir Putin compared same-sex partnership to Satanism in a public speech and blasted it as “a direct course to degradation and simplification, to the deep demogr…

Recent Debates Highlight Democrats’ Antisemitism Blind Spot—But It’s Not What You Think

By Nylah Burton

…ights and sovereignty is getting stronger and more effective. The days of being able to silence criticism of Israel with logical fallacies is coming to a close. But “in defense of Jews,” the Democrats are setting us up to be holding the matches when it goes up in flames. Rabbi Ruttenberg says that “Antisemitism is about pointing fingers at Jewish people, [and is] used by people in power to point at Jews to say ‘it’s them that’s to blame, not us.’…

By Daniel Schultz

…n on The View last year. Obviously, the conversation with Buttigieg was around presidents or presidential candidates. But then why not mention Barack Obama or Hillary Clinton, both of whom are well-known Democrats with strong Christian commitments? I’m honestly confused here.

By Daniel Schultz

…nd raised my children Methodist, she says, followed by a light joke about being a Sunday School teacher. That’s 23 seconds, and then she’s off like a shot into the meat of her response. In other words, she didn’t leave much for critics to pick at. Nor does she overplay her hand with a schmaltzy, long-winded story about John Wesley or her youth-group advisor. Conservatives are going to call her a phony anyway, but what of it? She tells the story th…
