Rep. Kinzinger Rejects Judgmental Family Letter But He’s No Cure for Evangelical GOP Authoritarianism

This week, Illinois Representative Adam Kinzinger, one of only ten Republicans in the House of Representatives who voted for Donald Trump’s second impeachment, released to The New York Times a letter signed by 11 members of his family eviscerating him for that decision. And that letter [see images below], which accuses Kinzinger of joining “the devil’s army,” which it defines as “Democrats and the fake news media,” is generating buzz in both trad…

Where Were They Radicalized? No Answer is Complete Without Addressing Evangelical Churches and Schooling

As the United States prepares for the end of a nightmarish one-term presidency that seemed to drag on forever, Americans continue to unpack the January 6 insurrection that now even soon-to-be Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell admits was “provoked” by President Donald Trump. On January 16, NBC political analyst Mehdi Hasan tweeted, “#whereweretheyradicalized is a question we’re going to be asking of GOP lawmakers at federal and state/local le…

Trump’s Lawsuit Amounts to ‘a Tweet With a Filing Fee,’ But That’s Not the Whole Strategy

…court of law. In one federal court hearing on Wednesday, a lesser case involving less than 100 ballots, the judge repeatedly asked the Republican Party attorneys to explain the actual problem: “I don’t understand how the integrity of the election was affected. That’s what I’m looking for.” Professor Justin Levitt of Loyola Law School in Los Angeles pierced the bloated Republican legal strategy when speaking to Propublica: “A lawsuit without provab…

Pretty Girls Like Trap Church: A Movement at 2 Chainz’s Atlanta Pink House

…the crowd of attendees, mostly black Atlanta professionals, to become involved in local organizations such as Street Groomers, Black Lives Matter Atlanta and Housing Justice League. Though the Pink Trap House is no more, in its ephemerality, the space drew attention to social issues and questions of divine justice that one wouldn’t expect from a low-pitched, bungalow-style house in the industrial West Midtown neighborhood of Atlanta. The house wa…

Why the Media and Democrats Should Reject the Christian Right’s Pearl-Clutching and Address Problematic Religious Views

America is trapped in an abusive relationship—not just with the pussy-grabbing President Donald Trump, our abuser-in-chief, but also with the Republican Party, its white Christian base, the police, and the increasingly uninhibited “good guys with guns,” whose vigilante actions are evidently becoming increasingly brazen. And unless liberals, leftists, and all Americans of good conscience are willing to confront the abusive character of the authori…

Conservative Evangelical Eric Metaxas, Doing Twitter Theology, Claims ‘Jesus Was White’

When Eric Metaxas tweeted that “Jesus was white” on Monday the small corner of Twitter in which Metaxas is sometimes a conversation piece erupted quickly, and with wild speculation. Is he looking for attention? Being provocative? No one actually believes that Jesus is white, do they? Surely Metaxas is smart enough to know that this claim is easily refuted. But, it appears that he didn’t misspeak; he said what he meant to say. There are a few seri…

Love the Scholarship But Hate the Scholar’s Sin?: ‘Himpathy’ for an Academic Pedophile Enables a Culture of Abuse

…from the person. We cannot love the scholarship and feel better about ourselves for hating the scholar’s sin. Whether intended or not, to promote a person’s work by engaging it is to amplify their prestige and to route legitimacy to them. And this disproportionately happens for powerful white men in the academic study of Bible and religion. Terry Eagleton famously illustrated the background point here by explaining that if he sits on a bench that…

Why Drew Brees Was Right

…Malcom X explained why he believed that white liberals, who, “[sell] themselves to the Negro as a friend of the Negro” were more dangerous than the white conservative: “The white conservatives aren’t friends of the Negro either, but they at least don’t try to hide it. They are like wolves; they show their teeth in a snarl that keeps the Negro always aware of where he stands with them. But the white liberals are foxes, who also show their teeth to…

Record Numbers Voted for More Death and More Racism; Can We Really Just Come Together as a Nation?

In July I wrote in these pages about the necropolitics revealed by the actions of political leaders and political parties who clearly don’t care about inflicting death on others; those who actually succeed politically by subjecting others to violence and torture and unspeakable suffering. As I was drafting that earlier piece, it was perfectly apparent to all that Trump and the Republicans were practicing necropolitics by ignoring science and refu…

What Fundamentalist Christian Fiction Can Teach Us About Our American Crisis

…tics, showing that his fiction trains its male readers to understand themselves as engaged in spiritual warfare against “progressive politicians, liberal education, psychology, pro-choice activists, and the media.” Fundamentalist fiction, in other words, helps to tell stories about proper Christian understandings of gender and sexuality, politics, and the world of the spirit. This is apparent in a second article, by Maggi Kamitsuka, on evangelical…
