By Eric C. Miller

…ti-Communists rather than bad ex-fascists. They were able to submerge that part of their past simply by modifying the type of language that they had used earlier in their careers and talking instead about the threats that a barbaric Soviet Union posed to a European civilization. So in a strange way, crucial parts of the Judeo-Bolshevik myth survived after the war, even under the umbrella of Judeo-Christian civilization. In light of this complicate…

…er was praised. Just the opposite, in fact. Despite lightly condemning her participation, House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy reaffirmed his pledge to give her “better committee assignments” if Republicans retake the majority in the midterms.

…dherents of smaller religions: Jews, Hindus, Muslims, Buddhists. The first part of that equation—the secular part—is probably the most important, given just how small those smaller religions are. Race also plays a part, with coastal Catholics being generally more diverse, and white evangelicals playing a smaller role. I would caution anyone who wants to take all of this as evidence of religious faith’s inherent conservatism. It’s difficult, if not…

While these circumstances benefited white Jews, they were not exempt from the effects…

By Shaul Magid

…ir Shapiro in 1923 in Poland. Shapiro envisioned the widespread study of a page of Talmud on a pretty superficial level as a way to create cross-cultural conversation among Jews, a way for Talmud to become part of the daily chatter of Jews unable to devote their entire day to study. It was a brilliant idea and widely successful, far more than Shapiro could have imagined. For Horn, the Talmud is the testament of dead Jews and daf yomi is how Jews l…

Chicago Synagogue Excoriated For Shift From ‘Non’ to ‘Anti’ Zionism — Maybe the Problem isn’t the ‘Anti’ But the ‘Zionism’

By Shaul Magid

…y offense for which Jews can be ‘excommunicated’ in the US today is not to participate in these efforts [to support Israel]. Intermarriage, ignorance of the Jewish heritage, or lack of faith do not keep anyone from leadership in the American Jewish community today.

The Far-Right Embrace of the Knights Templar isn’t Just About Faith, Tradition or History — It’s About Hate

By Thomas Lecaque

…307, the Templars in France were arrested, followed a month later by the papal bull Pastoralis praeeminentiae, which called for the arrest of all Templar knights and the seizure of their property. And five years after that, at the Council of Vienne, Pope Clement V issued Vox in excelso (voice from on high), the bull that formally dissolved the Poor Fellow-Soldiers of Christ and of the Temple of Solomon—better known as The Knights Templar.
