By Joanna Brooks

…ail list. But even without formal LDS Church involvement in Maryland, you feel compelled to take a more political stance than the Salt Lake City marchers. Martin Luther King’s Letter from Birmingham Jail said, “We will have to repent in this generation not merely for the hateful words and actions of the bad people but for the appalling silence of the good people.” Many good members of the Church here, and across the country, disagreed with Propos…

…5 (when the catastrophic Vietnam “surge” began) was bad enough at around 25-to-1. Today that ratio is 300-to-1 and soaring, despite the fact that Wall Street’s best and brightest just pushed the economy over the brink.

…age equality after hearing from gay colleagues, and hearing demonizing anti-gay rants in committee. That has emboldened the lawmakers to speak out more: Del. Luke Clippinger (D-Baltimore) said he has probably talked to at least 10 delegates, including several fellow freshmen with whom he bonded on a three-day bus trip across the state in December for new lawmakers.

By Susan Katz Miller

…edged the existence of interfaith family communities, predicting that “Jews-for-Jesus and other messianic groups will undoubtedly be the beneficiaries of these efforts, and synagogues will find themselves pressed to adopt religiously syncretistic practices in order to accommodate those with hybrid identities.” This prediction betrays a profound misunderstanding of how interfaith education programs operate, and how these interfaith children “turn o…

By Peter Montgomery

…ttish church will be excluded from the next Lambeth Conference, the once-in-a-decade gathering, in 2020, or the next meeting of Anglican primates in 2019. Chechnya: ‘Long Arm of Retaliation’ Follows Gay Refugees Boris Dittrich of Human Rights Watch writes about Chechnya’s “long arm of retaliation” against gay men.

The Sordid Past of Ralph Reed

By Sarah Posner

…icipation of the evangelical troops. With all the other religious right political mobilizers out there, it’s hard to believe that Reed will be either their poster boy or their get-out-the-vote go-to guy.

By Grant Gallicho

…ngs claimed that because an alleged act of abuse was committed against a 17-year-old in 1995, the allegation should be thrown out. At the time of the alleged abuse, the canonist argued, canon law held that the age of majority was sixteen. But review boards were not established to serve a canon-law function. Their role is simply to determine whether there is good reason to believe an alleged act of abuse took place against a minor. What if the Nati…

By Mohja Kahf

…eir typical violence and cruelty. A participant said that the instant a ten-year-old son of one woman prisoner held up a photograph of his mother, a security man’s blow sent the child reeling into onlookers. Suhair Attasi was pulled by her hair to a van, as were other women. Six-month-pregnant Maimouna Alammar was grabbed and carted off. What Syria experienced that day was a scene of loving families—women, men, and children together—appealing for…

By Joanna Brooks

…ea. But I think the most important thing that we’re doing is starting heart-to-heart conversations with individuals. We have created a program called “Community Conversations” which happens once a month on the same night in public libraries along the Wasatch front, from Logan to Provo, Utah. We want people from all sides of an issue to come talk. Recently, our subject was, “Can I support my LGBT child and feel connected to my faith?” We had a Mor…
