SCOTUS’s Incoherent Masterpiece Cakeshop Decision

By Daniel Schultz

…t its wide margin, in contravention of the English language, subtlety, and comprehension skills. Mook is as mook tweets, I suppose. The ruling itself doesn’t directly give a green light to religious discrimination, though that’s surely cold comfort to those it affects. Anthony Kennedy, writing for the majority, appears to have concluded that the state of Colorado copped an unusually hostile attitude toward the Christian beliefs of Masterpiece’s ow…

Pierre Teilhard de Chardin’s Legacy of Eugenics and Racism Can’t Be Ignored

By John P. Slattery

…e writes, “that there is no ‘Scientific Commission’…along with a ‘Biblical Commission’”? Such a commission could encourage the world to embrace three important eugenical ideas: “the optimum rather than the maximum in reproduction”; “a gradual separation of sexuality from reproduction”; and, in horrifying final words, “the absolute right…to try everything right to the end—even in the matter of human biology.” At this juncture, one must ask why no s…

RD Response to Fox Crit of White Supremacy in Yoga Engages in Victim Blaming

By Rumya Putcha

…of the right-wing zealots who initially belittled Gandhi and Wolff in the comments section on Foxnews.com and elsewhere. To be sure, by referencing her own work Jain enacts a version of what Edward Said once famously critiqued as the “citationary” nature of Orientalism and its reliance on “antecedent authority” to maintain White supremacist hegemony. For the past thirty years, critical race scholars like Richard Delgado have described this sort o…

Parkland Activists Don’t Care What You Think And They’re Not Interested in the Faith Wars

By Daniel Schultz

…ys found corrosive on both sides of the equation. Forced to choose between competing views of a faith, many people will simply walk away instead. (And to be fair, even white evangelicals—among the most conservative demographics in the nation—support stricter gun controls.) And again, the Parkland activists have made it pretty clear that they don’t see themselves as perfect, much less moral paragons, and certainly not exemplars in any religious sen…

Religion as a Front for Tyranny: A Roundtable on the Timeliness of Hulu’s “The Handmaid’s Tale”

By Anita Little

…g Trump’s presidency. And it makes me wonder what we can expect. Will we become numb? Complacent? Kaya Oakes: There are some things the series portrays that aren’t realistic, in my opinion. Atwood herself describes it as speculative fiction, which always operates on the worst case scenario. Maybe this is my California filter, but I don’t see women being rounded up and forced into Puritan-style outfits (maybe ours will be designed by Ivanka?), or L…

How Protesting Black Bodies are Imagined as a Threat to National Pride

By Joseph Winters

…of the bargain,” not living up to its professed ideals—especially when it comes to black people and military veterans. One can imagine another kind of interpretation that would question the intrinsic purity of these ideals, that would show how “our” freedom and justice—rather than being fought for everyone—is always intertwined with coercion, suffering, dispossession, and danger for some community. While Kaepernick doesn’t take his vocal critique…

In “The Promise,” A Reminder That U.S. Apathy to Genocide Endures

By Hussein Rashid

…illed by the Ottomans. The official wonders if the ambassador’s sympathies come from his being Jewish. The ambassador responds that he is Jewish, and he is American, and America is a nation of refugees. At that moment, you have to take a breath. The United States is a nation of refugees, not immigrants. If we wish to hold on to a founding myth, that the people who came to Plymouth Rock were seeking religious freedom, then we have to say they were…

Silence of “Religious Liberty” Activists on Muslims’ Cases Not What You Think

By Elizabeth Reiner Platt

…ve health care from employers to employees or the government in order to accommodate the religious beliefs of a company’s owners, they seem unwilling to allow workers to shift even the minimal costs associated with five-minute prayer breaks to their employers. Truthfully, while the fact that those requesting the accommodation are Muslim may be more salient, the fact that they are factory workers could be the bigger motivator for the absence of con…

The New God-Fearers (FKA “The Nones”) and Where to Find Them

By Carlos Wilton

…piritual striving? It takes creativity to imagine where they may be in our communities. One thing’s for sure: they don’t resemble churches. A leading gathering-place for God-fearers—one that touches all our communities—isn’t a place at all, in the ordinary sense. It’s the internet: social media in particular. Twenty-first century God-fearers park themselves beside their swift-flowing Facebook and Twitter feeds as Lydia sat beside the river of old,…

US Offers Help For Investigation of Bangladesh Killings

By Peter Montgomery

…it does not require any punishment in this world. It is a sin that will accompany its committer in the life after death.” In the interview, Salman Odah stated that “even though homosexuality is considered a sin in all the Semitic holy books, it does not require any punishment in this world. It is a sin that will accompany its committer in the life after death.” “Homosexuals are not deviating from Islam. Homosexuality is a grave sin, but those who…
