Step Right Up And Get Your Low-Priced ‘Pro-God Content’! Donald Trump Enters the Bible Business

…f the God Bless the USA Bible as $60 as if the left digit bias employed by used car salesmen and grocery stores is too embarrassing for journalists to acknowledge. But I say it’s important to refer to that actual low, low price of $59.99. Between June 2020 and now, Trump has gone from seeming to hawk a Bible in Lafayette Square to actually hawking one on his social media platform. We know exactly how much Christianity and the Bible is worth to him…

Lesbians Sue Lesbians, Sodomites to Follow?

…along with her changing poetic reputation. Plato called Sappho “the tenth Muse.” The early Christian rhetorician, Tatian, referred to her as an “eros-maddened slut who hymned her own debauchery.” Victorian classicists considered her poetry “sublime,” but her sexual tastes “irregular.” First-generation lesbian activists called her a “right-on woman” (the title of a popular 1972 manifesto), and enlisted her in the cause of sexual liberation. Taking…

NOM Claims Victimhood for the Holidays

…nd care for each other, in good times and bad, in sickness and health, for better or worse, for as long as you both shall live?” Some of us are lucky enough to have found the partner who loves us enough to say, “I will.” If the cries of “liberal judge” become too loud, then use your second piece of information and simply show them this video. It’s an Australian ad in support of marriage equality. If they aren’t tearing up by the end, then do as my…

Don’t Discount Evangelicalism as a Factor in Racist Murder of Asian Spa Workers in Georgia

…but at the same time, white evangelicals are demographic outliers in their use of “morality” to uphold and defend their far-right politics. Young white evangelical men who are active in their religious communities have perpetrated more than one act of terrorism in America’s recent past, and if we want to learn better how we might prevent such crimes, we must not be afraid of examining these connections. *Last name changed to protect against possib…

Back to School at The First Public School In the Country To Require a World Religions Course

…urt cases we discuss come next with great emphasis placed on the religious freedom clause and their civil rights. I demand that they know their rights and stand up for those rights if another person is being harassed––not because they agree with the person being harassed (I tell them they can absolutely disagree) but because the rights belong to all of us. If we allow anyone to chip away at those rights we will see the foundation of our nation wea…

The Problem of ‘Evil’ in Describing Southern Baptist Abuse Crisis

…rn Baptist Church upholds gracious submission as godly and relegates the abuse as “satanic,” casting them into different realms. Yet, submission and abuse should not occupy spaces so far apart in our theological imaginations, because they work together. When leaders demand unquestioning obedience from women and girls, it sets up the perfect environment for predation to occur. He was both people. I thought about the word hypocrisy: its origin is fr…

Fake Rabbi Showdown

…Waldman, however. Though blowing the shofar (a curved piece of ram’s horn used like a trumpet) is usually reserved for the Jewish High Holy Days, Waldman now blows his at every opportunity. He has done so for Unification events across Asia and Europe, occasionally referring to his patron as “Rabbi Moon.” What’s in it for him? As he explained it at the time, he had been single when he first crossed paths with the Unification Church. But then, he s…

No Zombies Here, Just a Bunch of Women Talking to the Dead

…over the years, I continued to work out strategies for filling those gaps between written texts and lived experience. Once I discovered the synergy between my experiences as a child and the women in the study and how important talking to the dead was to us all, I realized that I had a niche for framing the disconnect that had disturbed me many years ago. In the end, what began from a dissatisfaction I experienced as a Geechee girl who wanted to s…

Palin Goes ‘Hopey-Changey,’ But Don’t Call it Political

…build the center. The Evening of Hope event itself bounced back and forth between efforts to promote access to abortion alternatives in the form of charitable services and political campaigning aimed at legally prohibiting abortion—a position the Republican Party’s platform. Palin and others invoked the notion of building and affirming a “culture of life,” to give the event an apolitical patina. Crisis pregnancy centers have been controversial in…
