…to feel equal to my husband.” But Kelly points out that “Equality is not a feeling. Equality can be measured,” and the current treatment of women proves that they are not equal in the LDS church.

By Brook Wilensky-Lanford

…useum” is really a small group of creationists who have opened an admission-free “Vision Center,” in a small building next to a video-game supply store. They’re hoping to use the outpost and their website as a way to raise the money to build an actual, larger, admission-charging “museum.” Well, good luck with that. Even the brand-name Creation Museum, run by Ken Ham and his Answers in Genesis organization, has had trouble fundraising for its next…

By Sarah Posner

…lic office are, of course, free to worship as they choose. And they should feel comfortable explaining their religious convictions to voters, commenting about their own religious beliefs, explaining, if they wish to do so, how those beliefs shape their policy perspectives, and how they would balance the principles of their faith with their obligation to defend the Constitution if the two ever came into conflict. There is a point, however, where an…

The Only Thing Evangelicals Will Never Forgive Is Not Hating the “Other”

By Frank Schaeffer

…was lived out in a community. Salvation was a path toward God, not a you’re-in-or-out event, as in “At two thirty last Wednesday I accepted Jesus.” Just as Hillary Clinton said about child rearing, the process of redemption took a village. Pastors were part of that “village” tradition and were inducted into existing communities of faith. They were not self-made and reinventing the faith according to whim. The heart of worship was sacramental conti…

Creating a Cell: Science Plays God

By Arri Eisen

…inspires: how can humans take on the role of God like this? What if these newly-created organisms escape and mix in the external environment (as many of their less-drastically altered genetically modified brethren have)? Who should decide if such research is ethical or even legal?! Should Homeland Security get involved? My thought is: Venter has a point. Whether he just meant to be provocative or not, his new life form is certainly part of ‘that…

By Caroline Matas

…cision most likely spurred by the Houston Chronicle and San Antonio Express-News’s bombshell 2019 investigation revealing over 700 victims of sexual abuse within the SBC over the past two decades. To Brown, the sway evangelical faith leaders have over the power brokers of the Republican Party spells sure disaster. “When people talk about turning the US into a Christian nation, it makes me quake to ponder what that would mean for women in this coun…

New Book Reveals How Faith is Like a Covert Operation for the Bush Family

By Frederick Clarkson

…irst clashed in the Michigan GOP caucuses, which preceded the usually first-in-the-nation Iowa caucuses. (Bush ultimately won after a critical court ruling.) But Wead revealed to Baker how the ‘covert operator’ orientation of the Bush camp played out on the ground. “I ran spies in our opponents political camps,” Wead said, including elected Robertson precinct delegates in Michigan. These Bush agents made headlines when they abandoned Robertson and…

Are Kosher Delis Like Catholic Hospitals?

By Sarah Posner

…a government refusal to allow a business to compel its employees to adhere to its religious practices doesn’t violate the Free Exercise Clause. Taco Bell franchisees, take note. The ardent wish of religious right legal groups and their anti-church-state-separation allies is the dismantling of Supreme Court jurisprudence on the Establishment Clause. Short of that, they’re waging that battle in the court of public opinion and in the legislature. And…

The Evolution of Religion, According to Darwin

By Elizabeth Drescher

…Representatives to designate February 12, 2013 as Darwin Day versus a fire-and-brimstone physician who’s called evolution “lies, straight from the pit of hell.” If there’s any nuance in the piece, it’s that Oppenheimer notes—briefly—that both protagonists, Democratic representative Holt D. Rush and his Republican counterpart Paul Broun, are Christian. One a mild-mannered Quaker; one a fundamentalist Baptist. You guess which is which. A short hin…
