Evangelicals and Newt: Love Him or Hate Him?

…open letter, written on a blog that bears no names or footprints (the site registration is private), lambasts Vander Plaats not only for his association with Gingrich, but for accepting Gingrich’s help in securing $200,000 in “seed money” for his campaign to oust judges who had ruled in favor of gay marriage. There’s something odd, though, to my eyes, about the phrasing in the Iowans for Christian Leaders in Government materials. Like it wasn’t re…

…Even though they have registered their same-sex partnership at a household registration office, giving Hu the right to sign medical forms for his partner, they are still excluded from many social welfare benefits that are reserved for married heterosexual couples, Hu said. “We don’t have that much time to wait,” he said in a statement.

‘Culting’: From Waco to Fundamentalist Mormons

…he residence was rapidly engulfed in flames. Eight adults and a teenager escaped the fire. None of the children or their mothers escaped. After the fire FBI agents stated that they had counted on the mothers picking up their children and running out of the building to remove them from the effects of the CS gas. It is questionable if the mothers were in a condition to run out with the children, or if they would have been able to climb over the rubb…

Doing a Dukakis (But with Jesus) — Biden Does Not Need to Be More Publicly Christian

…a misappropriation of resources. That money would be better spent on voter registration and ground game turnout efforts among the Democratic base, or on powerful messaging on reproductive freedom, which has worked strongly in Democrats’ favor since the illegitimately stacked Supreme Court overturned Roe. Democrats also have a lot of work to do to shore up their base this year given how many have been alienated by Biden’s refusal to stop supplying…

Put Your Money Where Your Mind Is: A For-Profit Meditation Studio Opens in New York

…esembles SoulCycle’s (“book a bike”). So does the layout of MNDFL’s online registration portal. Both SoulCycle and MNDFL project a happy-healthy-community vibe, merging the accept-all-comers language of a millennial church with the prices of an upscale nail salon. And the origin story is basically the same: two people with complementary expertise get together; while chatting, they wonder why a certain service isn’t available, and they hatch a busi…

So Much for “Judeo-Christian” Values

…ng that Cantor “wants to herd even more gun owners into a federal database registration system.” Cantor, the ad went on, “doesn’t sound like a Virginian or a Republican anymore. Eric Cantor sounds like someone else”—another bogeyman, Barack Obama. That ad was pretty clear: he’s not one of us. But was that because he was Jewish, or because he briefly diverged from firearms orthodoxy? In any case, it can now be said that in terms of representation i…

LifeSite Complains that Local Boy Scout Chapter is Not Homophobic Enough

…d back into the program by falsifying personal information or skirting the registration process. Others were able to jump from troop to troop around the country thanks to clerical errors, computer glitches or the Scouts’ failure to check the blacklist. The report reveals some serious issues around child safety, rape culture, and the dismissal of victim experiences. Perhaps this is more of a priority right now for BSA than pandering to homophobia….

A Secret Family History Shows “Regular” Life Under the Reich: Sarah Wildman on Paper Love

…er quest to find the woman her grandfather left behind in Vienna when he escaped the Nazis in 1938. It’s part memoir, part personal history, part World War II history, and part globetrotting detective story—and completely riveting. Wildman’s quest began after the deaths of her grandparents, when she opened a box labeled “Correspondence: Patients A-G.” Since her grandfather was a doctor, the box, at least from the outside, seemed unremarkable. But…

Pamela Geller Bars Muslims from “Human Rights” Conference

…e hotel. (AAI’s event, in contrast, was open to the public and required no registration or fee.) The whole video is worth watching to understand the paranoid lengths Geller’s staff engages in to avoid having actual Muslims attend her conference. And what kind of person does attend the conference? The AAI staffers interviewed one attendee who who declared that Muslims who want to put “America under the yoke of Islam” are “enemies of America.” (He g…
