The Theology of Westboro: The “World’s Meanest Church” Is More Than Picket Signs

By Rebecca Barrett-Fox

…which the press accepted without hesitation—I didn’t see the subtitle as a list of institutions that God hated. I saw the title as God Hates, then the colon, then the subtitle, which was a list of the three major topics I was addressing: Westboro Baptist Church, American Nationalism, and The Religious Right. Not until designer Karl Janssen came back with the cover did I see the subtitle as a list of things that might be invoking God’s wrath, and I…

Liberals Agree, Israel is Greatest Thing Since Sliced Challah

By Shalom Goldman

…h the world—in this particular worldview anyway. Immediately following the list of what’s not wrong with (and what is right about) Israel, Goldberg writes: “If this can be so stipulated, we can move on to a more difficult conversation…” It’s a shameless rhetorical strategy: Just accept my assertions and then we can proceed with the conversation. Or, to put it another way, now that the reviewer has claimed (and the reader has agreed) that Israel an…

Will Catholic Voters Support LGBT Rights in Washington State?

By Joanna Brooks

…. We produced a flyer and factsheet and sent them to everyone on our email list. And I heard from people who stood outside mass to pass out our flyers and were asked to leave by the priest. But as they stood on the curb, they said 200 people rolled down their car windows and took their flyers and gave them thumbs up. They were very encouraged. It’s a strong campaign by the bishops. I wish they would put this money and energy into programs that wou…

Why the Lewd Trump Tapes Won’t Matter (As Much As You Think) in White Christian America

By Paul Harvey

…a former Miss Universe—chuckles. You can fill in the rest of the very long list. Curious to see how the Trump demographic is responding to the latest scandal, I took this opportunity to survey my Facebook “acquaintances,” mostly consisting of those I grew up and went to K – 12 school with in rural northwest Oklahoma. These are folks tailor-made for the Trump demographic: white, living in or close to the hometown, Christian, and angry in ways they…

Anti-Trans Bus Tour Is Not Very Welcome In Spanish Cities; Gay Rights As A Weapon In Nationalist War On Muslims; Global LGBT Recap

By Peter Montgomery

…parliament. His candidacy is being watched as the next test of the nationalist wave that drove Britain out of the EU and put Donald Trump in the White House. But the race is also uniquely focused on gay rights, because Wilders has framed his crusade against Islam in part as a defense of national values in the country proud to have adopted the world’s first marriage equality law and has remained a leader on LGBT rights in the years since. And seve…

…on on the Wal-Mart inspirational best-seller list, showed up on Wal-Mart’s list of top 10 best sellers for seven weeks, and made the USA Today top 50 best-seller list for six weeks. Hagee, who serves as head pastor of the 18,000-member Cornerstone Church in San Antonio, Texas, hosts his own television program that is seen twice a day on TBN.

The Myth of the “Bipartisan Pro-Life Majority”

By Sarah Posner

…funded abortion from this legislation,” said Marjorie Dannefelser, the SBA List’s president. Yet their campaign to settle for nothing less than Stupak-Pitts is, as Jodi Jacobson ably chronicled at RH Reality Check, filled with misinformation. Charmaine Yoest, president of Americans United for Life, claimed, without basis, that the Senate bill would “redefine” abortion as health care. In fact, no health plan would be required to cover abortion serv…

Stronger Than We Look: Ten Tendrils of Hope for 2017

By Peter Laarman

…often much stronger than they look. Readers are urged to quarrel with this list or make up their own list. The point is to keep hope alive. Here, then, are ten tendrils that offer reason to remain hopeful despite it all: 1. Clarity, maybe. This year we gained an opportunity to achieve greater clarity about how fear and hate reinforce each other, how inspired demagoguery foments both, and how fatal to the health of a body politic a deliberately ind…
