Men Without Guns: A Tribute to Larry McMurtry

…Sam dies almost formally unremarked in the novel, as Sonny leaves for the high-school senior trip. What’s lost is already gone on the first page: the picture show version of Texas. McMurtry has the boys casually go to the last showing in the theater “an Audie Murphy movie called The Kid from Texas.” “It would have taken Winchester ’73 or Red River” to “have crowded out the memories the boys kept having.” The two best friends are ostensibly fighti…

Wichita, the Sequel: A Clinic Reopens at Ground Zero in America’s Fight over Abortion

…ing Commission in March. Newman’s plan instead centers on the same death-by-a-thousand-cuts strategy of obstructionism and nuisance complaints that they’d waged against Tiller’s clinic for years before the murder. They had already begun this winter, with public challenges about whether Burkhart had the correct permits for her renovation—“these stupid regulations” Newman derided, but which he nonetheless used as a weapon—and forthcoming probes abou…

The Passion of the Slayer: On Buffy’s Twentieth, “The Big Bad” Is Still Out There

…. That is to say, they are human. And yet, time after time, it is their all-too-humanness that is the only thing that stands between the world and its end. No Good guarantees their victory, and victory usually seems impossible, but they fight anyway because that is what they have to do. In Buffy, the only guarantee is that defeating evil and saving the world, a lot, means that you’ll have to try to do it again when the next Big Bad shows up. In an…

What To Do When Fred Phelps Arrives in Your Neighborhood

…: educability. And if you want to check out some of the wonderful real-life-not-fantasy anti-Westboro picketing ever, click here and add them to your picketing, fantastical or real.   In my fantasy, the family and friends of Devin Snyder understand those called to protest against Phelps in Cohocton as acting in ways consonant with the sergeant’s decision to join an Army and participate in a war with which some of those same protestors disagree.

A Christian Nationalist by Any Other Name… Is Still a Christian Nationalist

…rical and journalistic accounts of Christian nationalism that provide an on-the-ground view of the affect, emotion, and desire of Christian nationalists. But it’s easier to claim things aren’t real just because you can’t see them yourself. And that claim, in this case, represents an unwillingness to face the dangers Christian nationalism poses to democracy. It represents a Christian who would rather claim a problem doesn’t exist than face the ways…

When Fundamentalism Follows You Out the Door: Transphobic Statement Exposes Exvangelical Trauma

…have been attempting to escape. Former fundamentalists can run from one all-encompassing, authoritarian ideology to another, making atheism, for example—or even concern for social justice—into reflections of toxic Christianity. Dubious exercises in gatekeeping, Twitter mobbing, and vicious scapegoating couched in a simplified and weaponized social justice rhetoric, have all characterized exvangelical online spaces this spring, hampering both indiv…
