…the vast majority of cases, Democrats of faith understand their religious commitments as compatible with an approach to pluralism that provides robust equality for all in the public square. Right-wing Christians, on the other hand, espouse an anti-pluralist understanding of their faith, using and abusing the rhetoric of “religious freedom” to demand the right to be, as it were, “more equal than others.” And when Democrats object to the politics o…

Less for Moore? If Russell Moore Left the SBC Due to Conscience and Convictions His Next Move Is a Curious One

…other, apparently authentic, recently leaked letter, retired SBC Executive Committee Vice President Augie Boto considered the public focus on addressing abuse to be “a satanic scheme to completely distract us from evangelism.” On the one hand, then, Moore’s decision to leave the SBC appears to be motivated by conscience and conviction. But on the other hand, if that is the case, the choice of his new church home, Immanuel Church, an Acts 29 Networ…

Muslim Students Shocked By Professor’s Column

…ion to consider the consequences of our language beyond simple ideological commitments: A university is a community of human beings, too. For a Dean to turn to successful businessmen, accomplished alumni, and hard-working students and tell them that their feelings of marginalization are simply the result of misreading obviously inflammatory passages is inexcusable. I am not looking for free speech to be revoked; far from it. I don’t want Varadaraj…

Behind the Inclusive-Sounding Ads of this $100 Million PR-Blitz-for-Jesus it’s the Same Old Conservative Christian Fantasy

…its homophobic views, which makes it pretty clear that “growing in gospel community” means becoming both straight and right-wing. In sum, it’s quite clear who the people behind “He Gets Us” are, even if their goal is to reel in the youth before they’re fully aware of what they’re getting into. At the end of the day, “He Gets Us” amounts to both an egregious misuse of $100 million (an amount that could do so much to, for example, alleviate the per…

From Licking Floors to Praying for an Inept Government, Churches React to C-19

…to the pandemic. “Yes, we will come through the coronavirus! Yes, we will come through the city quarantines,” he avowed. “Yes, we will come through an inept government that can’t handle a real crisis. Yes, we will come through an election season, in victory, I pray … Yes, we will come through all our troubles in hope.” Other Christians seem less pro-social, let us say. Pastor Rodney Howard-Browne, a Tampa Bay televangelist, equated changing habit…

Open Letter to Pastor Judah Smith on “Inclusion”: Just for Immigrants, or LGBTQ Too?

…church who will now assume his City Church small group is a safe place to come out, only to be rejected by his friends and given an ultimatum to repent if he wants to continue in community. And I wonder how many more couples my friends at EastLake will baptize through tears, because they were told ‘no’ at The City Church for being gay. In light of this confusion and the hurt that I’ve watched it create, I’m hoping for public clarity on The City C…

Overnight Sensation ‘The Rich Men North of Richmond’ isn’t Just a Window into a Forgotten America — It’s an Invitation into a Worldview

…d, as it is unmediated. His vocals are laid over a single guitar with no accompaniment from other instruments. In many ways, the song’s appeal comes down to what it cuts out—the production of a professional studio, the complexity of a melange of instruments or voices—in order to allow Anthony’s screeching cry to overpower anything in its range. Many in MAGA Nation and other conservative circles have taken notice. Marjorie Taylor Greene tweeted: “T…

As Michael, one of the main critics of heaven says: “These days, just buying a tomato at a grocery store means that you are unwittingly supporting toxic pesticides, exploiting labor, contributing to global warming. Humans think that they are making one choice, but they are actually maki…
