Christian Nationalist Judge Strikes Down FDA-Approved Abortion Pill for Brazenly Ideological Reasons

By Andrew L. Seidel

…early abortions in 2000, after fully—and carefully—vetting it over four-and-a-half years (more than triple the time such approvals typically take). On Friday, in a federal court in Texas, a Christian nationalist judge overruled that longstanding decision in what can only be described as a lawless and nakedly partisan decision. This isn’t his first such decision this year. The opinion mentions conspiracy theories, and eugenics slander, and says thi…

Hobby Lobby Case Isn’t Really About Contraception

By Patricia Miller

…it. But make the claim that the mandate forces employers to cover abortion-inducing drugs and it’s a whole different story. The image of devout, habit-wearing nuns being forced against their conscience to provide “abortion drugs” is what makes the Little Sisters of the Poor case so compelling and what may have won the sisters a stay against the mandate from Justice Sonya Sotomayor. But ECPs are not abortifacients. They can’t terminate an existing…

Hide the Religion, Feature the Science: 60 Minutes Drops the Ball on Mindfulness

By jeff wilson

…es from—the piece treats it as having essentially sprung from Dr. Jon Kabat-Zinn’s well-functioning brain. In fact, mindfulness is a Buddhist meditation practice, and it was from Buddhists during Buddhist meditation retreats that Kabat-Zinn learned about mindfulness in the first place. If you know what to look for, there’s lots of Buddhism on display during Cooper’s report, but none of it is ever attended to, and the average American probably can’…

Beloved Immortals: Science, Miracles and ‘Jellyfish Time’

By Beatrice Marovich

…ful dream of mankind.” He earnestly believes that if we learn the immortal jellyfish’s death-defying trick, we will be able to “evolve and become immortal ourselves.” I would like to keep telling you about Kubota, his love of the jellyfish, the songs (the odes!) he writes in their honor. But if I retell Rich’s story, I won’t do it justice. Instead, I want to suggest that Kubota is a rather paradigmatic example of that dreaming scientist. Kubota’s…

2023 CPAC Lived Down to Expectations, But Don’t Buy the Narrative: The GOP is Not as Divided as You Might Think

By Annika Brockschmidt

…d dished up his own version of the “Big Lie.” What was notable was the anti-Ukraine sentiment in many of the speeches, which seemed to echo Russian propaganda. Tulsi Gabbard, the former Democrat from Hawaii, claimed that the Biden administration and NATO were “waging a proxy war through Ukraine against Russia,” painting NATO as the aggressor and claiming that Biden wants “World War 3”—a theme that Trump would later pick up in his closing speech. G…

Don’t Buy Alito’s Assurances: Here’s What Happens Next After Roe Falls

By Brynn Tannehill

…clared that they must, congratulations, we just reached the part of “doomed-to-repeat-history” known as Dred Scott, the disastrous, anti-human rights decision that was opposed by most Americans and made the (first) Civil War inevitable. One can argue that Republicans are not insane enough to push it that far, but this flies in the face of observable reality. They’re already telegraphing their plans to remake American society in the image of what t…

New Report: Prop. 8 Was Parent-Approved

…ole. Latinas switched sides and moved 26 points: they began supporting same-sex marriage by 8 points, and then ended by supporting the ban on same-sex marriage by 18. By contrast, among Latino men support for the ban on same-sex marriage remained almost unchanged during the final six weeks of the campaign: it went from leading by 25 points to leading by just 24. Two years out, however, another recent poll showed that support for marriage equality…

The lawsuit claims the initiative violates section 273 of the state Bill of Rights, which states that a voter initiative “shall not be used for the proposal, modification or repeal or any portion of the bill of rights of this constitution.” Cliff Johnson, co-counsel to McDuff, said his party would appe…

Biology Textbooks Approved in Louisiana Over Creationist Objections

By Lauri Lebo

…of Louisiana.The Board of Elementary and Secondary Education there voted 8-2 to approve recommended high school biology textbooks, over the objections of creationists who were horrified that teachers were going to teach their children science. In November, the state’s school board had held off adopting the biology I and biology II textbooks due to the complaints. I’ve written about it here and here. As one of the residents, and son of Family Foru…
