By Carlos Wilton

…locals and tourists alike. Some celebrants—like Mr. Kushner, presumably—become credentialed to perform a one-off ceremony for a friend or relative. Those who seek to make a living at it are more likely to get some training, such as the $2,400 “gold standard” webinar series offered by the Celebrant Foundation and Institute. Most professional celebrants charge their clients a hefty fee: from $500-$1,300, according to the Foundation. This is signifi…

By Spencer Dew

…insists upon both a private, interior life of the mind and a complete and committed identification of that hidden inner self with outward activity. It is here where attention to religion can add to public understanding; for sincerity, as Faisal Devji reminds us in a recent essay for Aeon, “came into the English language with the rise of Protestantism, in order to name the internal agreement of statement and belief it required.” Devji, particularl…

By Jonathan Malesic

…workforce that is decidedly not in it for the money and that doesn’t mind being arrested at a protest. And, no small thing, the Episcopalian or Presbyterian church is often the most beautiful building in town. Even if the nearest Lutheran church has a crummy website, its music is surely better than what you’ll find at the “atheist church” Sunday Assembly.

…GBT and women’s rights activist Latoya Nugent, who was granted bail after being arrested on March 13 under the country’s cybermines law.

Will Church Attendance Reduce Bigotry? A Response to Peter Beinart

By Daniel Schultz

…y Christian teaching, it has an embarrassing tendency to wear off between Sunday and Sunday. People often forget the brotherhood of humanity when they go back online or watch cable news.

New Mag Provides a Platform for Christians of Color

By Anita Little

…hat? Do we understand how racism can rear its head in certain areas? Do we understand what we are seeing when we see a racial disparity in certain situations or organizations? How we can be co-laborers in bearing some of these burdens? Do you feel the lack of diversity in religion reporting is just a reflection of the lack of diversity in newsrooms at large, or do you feel that the problem is particularly acute with religion outlets? I feel like i…

By Daniel Pecchenino

…ossibly bear. Her doesn’t need to be an exploration of female subjectivity and sexuality in order to teach us this lesson, and I would argue that it is actually the women in the film who drive this conversation. The juxtaposition of these two radically different female characters—as well as the complex and grounded presence of Theodore’s friend, Amy (Amy Adams)—against the backdrop of an altered Los Angeles (a city where insularity has replaced th…

…hobia. But others suggest that bullying of Muslim and gay kids can provide common ground (what one DC parent called a “cognitive opening”) to forge solidarity among two often marginalized groups. Many participants viewed mosques themselves as less open to conversation on LGBT issues, but the report suggests that mosques do not play as dominant a role in defining community attitudes as some may presume.

The Prayer Breakfast continued to face criticism and protest, especially from gay rights advocates, angry with the breakfast’s organizers and their involvement in the anti-gay bill in Uganda.
