Growing Up Cult: A Memoir of Life with Sri Chinmoy

By Brittany Shoot

…n to Cartwheels in a Sari because if they read it, they would see that the book explores the complicated realities that encompassed Sri Chinmoy and his mission. What is your spiritual life like today? I officially do not have a ‘spiritual life.’ In fact, even the word ‘spiritual’ is one that I cannot separate from my life with Sri Chinmoy. I am happily living a secular life. I don’t have any desire to follow a religion or dogma. I find happiness,…

Churches Can No Longer Hide the Truth: Daniel Dennett on the New Transparency

By Andrew Aghapour

…scoveries of science. Gods and flaming chariots are nothing, they’re cheap comic book fare, compared to what we actually have learned about stars and galaxies and the like. I think that there’s a sort of mirror image, an opposite of scientism, which has a real tin ear for the breathtaking awesomeness of science. All you have to do is listen to David Attenborough or Carl Sagan or other brilliant expositors of science to see just how jaw-droppingly…

Richard Dawkins’ Atheist Academy of Unguided Truth

By Paul Wallace

…se called “Biblical Archaeology,” in which the points of compliance and non-compliance between the biblical record and archaeology were pointed out; wide-ranging and fully scientific introductions to biological and cosmic evolution; and a Christian history course in which none of the horrors committed by the church, so thoroughly trumpeted by Dawkins and others, were skipped over or airbrushed. Then there was the king daddy of them all: Father Cav…

Hulu’s ‘Hamilton’s Pharmacopeia’ Shows That We Can No Longer Ignore Connections Between Religion and Drugs

By Hollis Phelps

…ending on which drug is in focus. In Season 3, Morris devotes episodes to 5-MeO-DMT, methamphetamine, xenon, ibogaine, bufotenine, and LSD. Although the show focuses on users and researches of the drugs in question, Morris often acts as a participant-observer, using the drugs himself to report their effects. Whatever the drug in question, however, the narrative always seems to circle back to questions relating to religion, in both explicit and ine…

What We Cannot Do is Be Revolutionaries Except When We’re Mothering

By Kentina and Naomi Washington-Leapheart

…oncerns is an extension of how we politically identify. If we cannot live our politics in our parenting, we cannot live our politics at the ballot box or at the protest. On this Mother’s Day, in honor of the launch of the Poor People’s Campaign’s 40 Days of Moral Action, we are re-committing ourselves to revolutionary mothering. We believe that this ethic of love and justice has the capacity to change the world for Sophia and for future generation…

Picasso’s Sacred Monster Eats Chicago: A Mystery Solved?

By Jeremy Biles

…gift to the people of Chicago” (Picasso refused payment), the ambiguous, 50-foot-tall, 162-ton sculpture met with a combination of public affection and outrage upon its unveiling. Mayor Richard J. Daley offered these words on the occasion: “We dedicate this celebrated work this morning with the belief that what is strange to us today will be familiar tomorrow.” Tomorrow has come, and the Chicago Picasso is indeed familiar—but no less strange than…

A Queer Atheist In the Heart of Mormon Country

By Chris Stedman

…hat sense, the conference left me (and I suspect many others) with as many questions as answers. But these questions are vital—and the idea that we can consider them together, without sacrificing our relationships or the civility that undergirds them, is radical. I certainly don’t believe that the idea of “celebrating different beliefs” should be extended to beliefs that are used to marginalize others—but that tension should be explored, not suppr…

We All Speak of “Conscience”—But Are We Talking About the Same Thing?

By Mary E. Hunt

…proaches to what forms a conscience, but there is still a rather strict one-to-one correspondence between input and expected result. The prevailing view is if one shapes a child in a faith tradition then one can expect to produce an adult who will act accordingly, though lots of evidence debunks that myth. The Conscience Monologues: Women Stories of Conscience within the Catholic Church, directed by Lindsay Porter and written by Liz Deligio and Ma…

Booing Gay Soldiers and Expressing Faith in the Public Square

By Sarah Posner

…ion, which the Constitution protects. But Kelly’s framing gave Bachmann an opening to address only the free exercise part, while dodging her affirmation of one of the religious right’s most cherished beliefs: that “activist judges,” in contravention of the founders’ intentions, invented the separation of church and state to the detriment of the ability of Christians to practice their faith. In other words, prayer in public schools should be allowe…

Why We Must Reclaim “Religious Freedom” from Christian Conservatives

By Bill Berkowitz

…is hell-bent on redefining it to the point where it no longer means what most reasonable people think it means. A more comprehensive and integrated discussion of the religious freedom strategy of the Christian Right is urgently needed. These things are often viewed from the heat-of-the-moment concerns about such matters as anti-LGBTQ discrimination and erosion of access to reproductive health services. I have never liked the term “culture war,” bu…
