Gun Ownership: ‘An Obligation to God’

By Julie Ingersoll and Sarah Posner

…n Paul, a godfather of sorts to the Tea Parties, calls the GOA “the only no-compromise gun lobby in Washington.” Indeed, Pratt, GOA’s executive director, told RD that he has spoken at Tea Party events, calling his group “a natural match for the folks in the Tea Party.” Pratt believes the federal government is largely unconstitutional, and that all federal agencies save the Department of Justice and the Department of the Treasury (which should be “…

How an 1843 Revelation on Polygamy Poses a Serious Challenge to Modern Mormonism

By Benjamin E. Park

…rum, still convinced that he was the one who could finally reach his sister-in-law, then rushed the text, ink still wet, over to Emma’s home, armed with what he believed were infallible truths. The mission failed. When Hyrum returned, he reported that he had received the sternest rebuke of his life. The next day, after he had already made a copy of the text, Joseph allowed Emma to destroy the document that symbolized, for her, so much pain. Circum…

Big Ecumenical Gathering Marks Multi-Faith Presence at Paris Climate Talks

By Donna Schaper

…ed Tuesday to plan an action at the Louvre, regarding its receipt of fossil-fuel-fueled donations. I went to their planning meeting Tuesday for the Wednesday action. They spent 45 minutes imitating Occupy’s open style of meeting, with once again the white men doing more talking than the white women. The question was whether the gorgeous umbrellas with messages on them should be delivered en masse or individually, given that the press probably won’…

Deifying Pope Francis Obscures Where He’s So So Right, So So Wrong

By Daniel C. Maguire

…d but deified. Pennsylvania Congressman Bob Brady was, perhaps, the deifier-in-chief as he pilfered the pope’s water glass, sipped reverently from it, shared it with his staff and loved ones and sprinkled the water on his grandchildren. The crowds grabbing at the pope’s garb were in the spirit of the sickly woman in Matthew’s gospel who knew she would be healed if she could but touch the hem of his garment. Paul and Barnabas were impressive figure…

Gay Hating Christians Confronted by “Wall” of Gay Loving Christians at Gay Christian Conference

By Becky Garrison

…trine that damns those they love to hell. Try as they might to launch a protest with bullhorns … Local clergy and churgoers responded to the protestors by singing Christian praise songs to block out the hate speech and forming a “Wall of Love” to help conference attendees enter the convention center without having to confront the Westboro crew. Those protesting and praying gathered at 8am (with most leaving by 9am when the first session began). Ac…

Is The Religious Left Emerging as a Political Force? No.

By Daniel Schultz

…ery phrase a lot in the religion-and-politics beat. A lot. Exhibit A: an op-ed in today’s New York Times declaring “To Win Again, Democrats Must Stop Being The Abortion Party.” The argument is pretty much exactly what you think it will be: the well-worn chestnut about Democrats needing to moderate on reproductive rights in order to reach out to swing voters, Catholics in particular. And yes, I guess there is a certain amount of logic to this, in t…

Muslim Stowaways
on the European
Titanic: “Eurabian” Alarmism 2.0

By Haroon Moghul

…the name can afford to propagate? This is, time and again, Caldwell’s greatest shortcoming. He, too, claims he has a problem with violence, but what he really has a problem with is Muslim violence. (There are, of course, plenty of Muslims who similarly equivocate.) A Pyrrhic Victory Caldwell intimates that, while Europe suffers, Muslims are either waiting patiently for its inevitable end or occasionally hurrying the process along through wily re…

Traditional Marriage: One Man, Many Women, Some Girls, Some Slaves

By Jay Michaelson

…ves), debated whether it is permissible for a man to marry a three- or four-year-old girl. St. Paul, meanwhile, said that marriage was a compromise between the ideal of celibacy and the unfortunate fact that people like to have sex. Fortunately, we pluralists can appreciate both those religious traditions which advise men to marry little girls and those which tell them not to marry anyone at all. And of course, even until the present day, traditio…

New Report: Muslim Terrorism a ‘Minuscule Threat’

By Hussein Rashid

…1-2011, approximately 200 American Muslims have been charged with terrorism-related activities. This number includes those who committed acts of terrorism overseas in places like Somalia and Yemen. Even if we take the conservative number of 2 million Muslims in the U.S., that means 0.01% of Muslims are involved in terrorism-related activity over the span of a decade. Per annum, it is 0.001%. If we take a more realistic number of 4 million American…

God, “The 34th Miner” in Chilean Ordeal

By Michelle Gonzalez Maldonado

…d God won. It was his faith in God that assured him of his rescue. Nineteen-year-old miner Jimmy Sanchez wrote in a letter sent up prior to his rescue, “There are actually 34 of us, because God has never left us down there.” Miner Ricardo Villaroel describes the incident as a moment of faith renewal, “I never use to pray, here I learned to pray. I got closer to God.” Many of the miners thanked God upon ascending from the shadows, others spoke of t…
