Do Psychedelics Offer a Path To The “God Within”?

By Hollis Phelps

…usly the specificity of that setting: the clinic isn’t a remote village in Mexico. Doing so, I suggest, would complicate our understanding of psychedelics and the way that they interact with different environments. In addition, it would also complicate our understanding of religion. Scholars of religion have for some time questioned many of the assumptions undergirding the notion of “religion,” showing how it, like most everything else, is a compl…

Will Evangelicals Vote for a Non-Christian Trump? If They Don’t, the Vatican May Fall to ISIS

By Hollis Phelps

…Referring to Trump’s “plan” to build a wall between the United States and Mexico, the Pope suggested that Trump is “not Christian.” In Francis’ words, “a person who thinks only about building walls, wherever they may be, and not building bridges, is not Christian. This is not in the gospel.” Trump was quick to strike back, calling the Pope’s remarks “disgraceful,” and adding: If and when the Vatican is attacked by ISIS, which as everyone knows is…

Pope’s Comments on “Ideological Colonization” of Gender Signal Rupture With Scientific Community

By Michael Schulson

…s are powerful. The researchers interviewed 250 transgender individuals in Mexico City. They found that their distress was overwhelmingly correlated with violence and social rejection, but not with anything intrinsic to being transgender. Ergo, they conclude, it’s not a great idea to classify transgender identity as a disorder. A medical diagnosis can provide social legitimacy to people’s experiences, and it can provide access to legal and insuran…

Georgia Gov Vetoes Right-To-Discriminate Bill

By Elizabeth Reiner Platt

…with local anti-discrimination laws. Over a dozen states from Iowa to New Mexico have introduced RFRAs. While HB 757 is gone for now, it’s far from forgotten. There’s still a chance that legislators could override the Governor’s veto, and dozens of similar bills are still waiting to be picked up in states nationwide. It’s therefore important to understand that the veto of HB 757 was not just a win for LGBT equality or an acknowledgment that discr…

A Furious Sadness: Conversation with Christian Protester of Nazi-Saluting Trump Supporter

By Daniel Schultz

…ts tore me up. I have friends and family, but down the line, who came from Mexico, and his views I just think are so damaging that I wanted to actively stand up, present myself as an opposing side, and see if I could start a dialogue and see if those comments on immigrants were just a one-time deal or if they were a part of his entire platform. But like, for real. [I had] genuine curiosity as to how these Trump rallies work. Whether they are as ch…

The Anxiety of White Christian America: A Poll

By Daniel Schultz

…t. Even though most people say they’re more worried about immigration from Mexico and Central America, whites are really dead-set against Muslims coming to the US. They’re also not big fans of immigration in general. There are similar breakdowns to what we’ve seen above when people are asked whether “immigrants are more of a burden on the country because they take jobs, housing, and health care,” or whether immigrants are changing American society…

Trump’s Mormon Problem

By Neil J. Young

…Trump’s harsh statements about Mexicans. Mueller astutely points out that Mexico boasts the LDS Church’s second largest Mormon population behind the U.S., and that it is “likely that there are today more nonwhite Mormons than white ones.” Given all that, Mormon resistance to Trump’s candidacy clearly grows from both present circumstances and longer historical patterns. The sizeable number of Mormons who have libertarian leanings also may be reset…

It’s the Water! And Other Lowlights from Presidential Science Debate

By Michael Schulson

…ing that “all humankind benefits from reaching into the stars.” Apparently Mexico will not be called upon to construct a stellar wall, “because space is not the sole property of America.” 2. America has enough money to go to space, but not enough to save Miami. “There is still much that needs to be investigated in the field of ‘climate change,’” the Trump campaign wrote. Then things got weirder. “Perhaps the best use of our limited financial resou…

But What Did We Learn? Hate-Watching the First Clinton/Trump Debate

By Candace E. West

…te, or ads should be familiar with. Trump started with a dog whistle about Mexico and fleeing jobs, then continued with the moment that set the tone for the rest of the debate: To some it may not seem so bad at first glance, but any woman who has ever had to smile politely while being condescended to at work knows this for the smug, dismissive bullsh*t it is. And that was the debate in a nutshell. It was followed by 90 minutes of Trump trying to b…

Why We Should Keep the Devil in Halloween

By Ed Simon

…y and so we have Halloween. The Spanish Conquistadors in sixteenth-century Mexico found that they could conflate their holidays with Aztec observances for Mictecacihuatl, goddess of the underworld, and so we have Dia de los Muertos. In autumn the days get shorter and life begins to die and decompose, the leaves we crunch underfoot are the detritus of the trees that bloomed only a few months before. It certainly feels as if that gossamer veil betwe…
