Well, the Harris-Trump Debate Happened — Now Enjoy Your Freedom and Choose Wisely

By Mary Rambaran-Olm

…n’s bodily autonomy was emphasized, but as the saying goes “none of us are free until all of us are free.” It begs the question as to which women’s rights matter when US imperialism is responsible for dropping bombs on countries where women are using tent cloth as menstrual products because they’re displaced and don’t have access to what should be basic hygiene products or basic anesthetic during childbirth. There was little talk about the details…

India: Supreme Court Will Reconsider Sodomy Law Ruling BuzzFeed’s Lester Feder reported this week that a panel of judges on India’s Supreme Court will revisit the 2013 ruling that re-instated the co…

Masculinity and Mass Violence: When Will We Acknowledge the Smoking Gendered Pronoun Hiding in Plain Sight?

By Elizabeth Drescher

…e Columbine”—a list of nearly 30 shooting sprees with lethal results. Ne’er-do-wells who merely wounded didn’t make the cut. Thus, not included on the list was a shooting spree in an Alabama bar with a multiple arson warm-up just two days earlier. There, enraged after having been fired from his job (only the latest in a string of personal and financial calamities), NVW fired into a bar from across the street, wounding or otherwise injuring 17 peop…

As Florida Attempts to Make it Illegal, an Argument for the Sacred Work of White Discomfort

By Robert P. Jones

…a door out—blame the messenger and disregard the message. Or we can use it as a door in by asking, Why does this unsettle me? What would it mean for me if this were true?” I highly recommend this well-researched and accessible book. See Avidit Acharya, Matthew Blackwell, and Maya Sen, Deep Roots: How Slavery Still Shapes Southern Politics (Princeton University Press, 2020)….

Why Bill Maher Gets a “C” in My Introduction to Religion Class…

By S. Brent Rodriguez Plate

…t next to Richard Dawkins, Sam Harris, Christopher Hitchens, and other sort-of-atheists. (I’m talking the nerdy academic’s version of “fantasy football” here.) And I give them the assignment I always give to my eighteen-year-old students: come up with your own definition of religion, see if you can put it in a sentence, and then give some paragraphs of support to back it up. The assignment has no singular answer, of course; I’m looking for their a…

‘Culting’: From Waco to Fundamentalist Mormons

By Catherine Wessinger

…Wayne Martin, an attorney and Branch Davidian father, immediately dialed 9-1-1 and begged that the shooting stop: “Tell them there are women and children in here and to call it off!” The surviving Branch Davidian children report that it was terrifying, with bullets flying through the windows, wooden walls and floors of their home. The next day FBI agents took control of the site and presided over the 51-day siege. During the siege, parents sent s…

Easter-y than Cesar Chavez?

By Peter Anthony Mena

…itical agendas. In this instance, brownness (represented by Chávez) is anti-American, anti-capitalism and, because of calendrical happenstance, anti-Christ. To some conservative Christians, Google’s iconography is the latest in an ongoing attack on their faith. In a post on Townhall.com titled “Ponder Christian Soldiers Google’s Smirking War On You,” Colorado State Senator Shawn Mitchell decries the choice of a Chávez “doodle”: “Sure, no Christian…

Hopping on the Meditation Brandwagon: “Heartfulness” Makes Landfall in Los Angeles

By Anita Little

…tfulness-the-brand seems very much a 21st-century operation. There’s a toll-free number for people to call where if you press three, you’ll be connected to a Heartfulness associate in North America. The organization offers a livestream of conferences on their web site, and there are heartfulness apps with virtual instructors on iTunes and Google Play. The one thing the conference seemed to tout above all else was accessibility. “This does not exer…

“Make The Mass Latin Again”: The Pope Francis Backlash Comes Home

By Kaya Oakes

…else…. Rigidity is defensive. True love is not rigid. Even former Catholic-turned-Orthodox conservative writer Rod Dreher admitted last year that Americans may have reached “peak Latin Mass”; attendance rose for a bit when it was offered in more parishes, then appeared to flatline. Dreher says the risk is similar to that of American Orthodox churches, and that Latin Mass has become a “boutique niche.” For right now, however, Latin Mass has become…

DeSantis is a No-Show, the Right’s ‘Secret Sauce,’ and Final Thoughts on Pray Vote Stand

By PRA Staff

…Christian Right and its institutions. Attending this conference was an eye-opener for me. I already knew in the abstract that the Christian Right is a powerful, well-oiled machine. But seeing the gears turning up-close and in-person, even just by attending a single conference held by a single organization at a single megachurch, drove home the degree to which institutions like the Family Research Council run a tight ship, and are well-resourced,…
