Romney’s VP Pick of Ryan Will Bring Religion to the Fore

By Sarah Posner

…chneider observed, “What’s brought Occupy Catholics together as a group around the country, both online and in person, is the shared sense that the Occupy movement’s message speaks to the heart of our faith.” But back to electoral politics. Democratic “faith” strategists have jumped on Ryan over his affection for Ayn Rand, criticizing him because she was an atheist—a wrongheaded move that demonized atheism rather than the cruelty of Randian econom…

…te? What can I sneak in?” Sanitized Language Just this month, Lifeway has come under fire for refusing to stock The Blind Side, a movie about a wealthy white Christian family that supports a black teen from a broken home. The store refused to answer most questions by email, and denied requests for an interview, but they did send a statement about the film. “We agree the movie as a whole promotes Christian values and a redemptive message,” they sa…

Call Centers and… Congregational Email Lists

By Joanna Brooks

…ith our ability to fill the war chest so Governor Romey has the ability to communicate his message in key battleground states. Our dollars—even just a $25 dollar contribution—add up in a significant way and provide the campaign with the necessary resources to win the White House. As co-chair of the Utah Women for Romney, I am excited about our plan to involve you right now. Utah women have a history of leading the way and I hope we can do it now….

Is Change Possible? Shifting the Ex-Gay Question

By Lynne Gerber

…ilures of reparative therapy, failures which only accrue over time, have become easier to admit. With the need to attract supporters independently from larger Christian right organizations in a recession, Exodus has turned to those strugglers, families and friends that have always been the mainstay of its member ministries. These are the very strugglers who have seen little in the way of actual change over time, and their families and friends who,…

Pledging Virginity to Dad: A New Doc Explores the World of ‘Purity Balls’

By Jessica Valenti

…n for him in a given moment.” “The command to love him is just that—it’s a command.” As a feminist, I found the purity balls themselves the most difficult to watch. Young women and girls are dressed in ballgowns, their hair professionally done. They pose with their fathers under white arches decorated with flowers, like prom dates. And the midst of all this revelry, they promise to remain virgins and their fathers, in turn, pledge to be the protec…

Mormons Prepare to March in Seven LGBT Parades this Weekend

By Joanna Brooks

…l—so that we too can enjoy those same rights. Many have forgotten the “greatest commandments.” Jesus said we should love God and love our neighbor. On these two things hang all the laws and the prophets ( Mathew 22:37-40). And who is my neighbor that I should love? Everyone. Not just those that are like me. Everyone—because all are alike unto God. (2 Nephi 26:33). The Savior’s parable of the Samaritan is simple and clear. As demonstrated by polyga…

Latest Misogyny Wasn’t First Shocking Comment from Hannity’s Preacher Pal

By Katie Toth

…merica made was to allow women the opportunity to vote.” Peterson is the Founder and President of BOND, the “Brotherhood Organization of A New Destiny,” on whose board his pal Sean Hannity sits. So it’s perhaps unsurprising that Hannity ignored the online tirade and invited Peterson to join a panel critiquing Obama’s PR response to the bin Laden assassination. Unfortunately, as Hannity’s co-panelists hadn’t ignored the tirades, both he and Peterso…

Cut the Ten Commandments Down to Six?

By Sarah Posner

…the Associated Press. The Bluefield Daily Telegraph reported that “[o]ne online message said the parent and student ‘should (be) ship(ped) overseas to play in the sand with al-Quiada (sic) for a little while,’ while a person identified as a Giles County elementary school teacher sent a message to the Freedom From Religion Foundation reading ‘you folks are allowing Satin (sic) to rule you.’” What an odd mediation proposal. Does the judge really t…

By Andy Kopsa

…ven in the PRENDA hearing to support the GOP’s claim that unborn girls are under siege in America. Census data is offered from California which shows boy births increasing in Chinese, Indian, and Korean American households after 1980. And another House committee testimony points to “populations demonstrated to practice” sex-selective abortions living in America as reason for concern. There are zero studies of abortions performed for the sake of se…

It’s Not About Facts or Fear: What Many Liberals Get Wrong About Religious Conservatives

By John Stoehr

…to war. (Put another way, the more good faith goes in, the more bad faith comes out.) Liberals fail to understand that WEPs and WCCs understand everything they need to know, which is everyone who is not a WEP or a WCC is the enemy. When it comes to the enemy, nothing matters, except the cold-blooded prosecution of power. When liberals answer power with facts, they lose. They must answer it with more power. Third, political equality is a perversio…
