Mormon “Martin Luther” Causes Stir by Uploading LDS Church Handbook of Instructions to Internet

By Joanna Brooks

…them on the internet. For just anyone. For free. A few hours later, a fully-searchable edition of the CHI started to make the digital rounds. And by Friday, much to our astonishment, the LDS Church published the entire second volume on its own website. (The first volume remains officially restricted to lay clerical leaders.) The buzz among bloggers and web-journalists quickly converged around changes to the section of the Hand*]}*book dealing with hom…

There are fundam…

Russian Politician Wants to Ban Apple CEO Who Says Being Gay is God’s Gift; Violence After Preachers Blame Liberian Gays for Ebola; Global LGBT Recap

By Peter Montgomery

…ts Agency. European Dignity Watch, a network of anti-abortion and anti-LGBT-equality organizations, is complaining that the conference was based on a “big lie on ‘homophobia.’” EDW describes anti-discrimination proposals as the creation of “thought police” in the name of “legal protection.” Irish Minister Aidan O’Riordan saw the same difficulties in view of the upcoming Irish referendum on marriage to be held in the Spring 2015. He blamed the ‘pow…

Citizen Speech in an Age of Data: Or, Why I’m Transcribing My Tweets Into Cuneiform

By Andrew Aghapour

…end it to you in the mail. At first glance, this seems like yet another pop-up website to join the ranks of Mail A Spud and Send Your Enemies Glitter— a cute service designed to make easy profit. Yet Dumb Cuneiform seems somehow different. The profit margins can’t be high on hand-stamped cuneiform tablets (they sell, shipped, for $20— only twice the cost of a mailed potato). Dumb Cuneiform is also making a sly bit of commentary about online speech…

By Ed Simon

…adness of Crowds, that during times of social disarray we “find that whole communities … become simultaneously impressed with one delusion, and run after it”—or dance after it. Europe on the verge of modernity was a culture very much in a particular sort of disarray; old certainties were being questioned, political systems were rapidly changing, in some instances a dangerous new sense of nationalism was emerging in individual states, the media exp…

In Israel, Left and Right Join to Protest New Government Threat to Democracy — What’s Striking is What’s Missing

By Shaul Magid

…ore of the Left’s problems with the country. Amazingly, the Left and center-left accomplished what the Right has been trying to do unsuccessfully for decades: stifle the conversation about the Occupation. To change the subject. This is not unintentional. In order for the center-left to attract the soft right to join its movement, discussion about the Occupation must be muted, or excluded. If the Occupation is at the center, the soft right will sta…

Red Pop and Freedom: How (And How Not) to Celebrate Juneteenth, a New Federal Holiday

By A. E. Brooks-Key

…ain why Juneteenth exists (or why, 58 years after Emancipation, the African-American community of Greenwood in Tulsa, OK could be burned down to the ground by white supremacists) boggles the mind. Federal holidays all celebrate or promote particular civic or cultural elements deemed essential to the national character. The question is what exactly is Juneteenth meant to celebrate on a national scale? While the details of the holiday are easy enoug…

The Theology That Inspired the Poway Synagogue Shooting (and New Zealand) Remains Strikingly Commonplace

By Ivan Strenski

…Qur’an marks progress over the New and Old Testaments of the Bible, as the New Testament improves upon the Old. Islam replaces Christianity as Christianity replaces Judaism, and so on. (This is not to say that all or even most Christians, Jews and Muslims believe this, but it is undoubtedly a part of those traditions.) Typically overlooked by the players in this game of religious “leapfrog” is the fundamentally subjective, and often actively viole…

Darwin’s Theory of Evolution Still Sound

By Lauri Lebo

…new volcanic island erupts in the Galápagos chain. Suddenly an expanse of new, un-colonized land is available; new food sources will grow there. How will this new land affect finch diversification? That’s the kind of question being addressed here. But in the rush to deadline, the media all too often misses the point. And instead of an writing about an exploration of the different ways mass environmental changes impact life’s diversity, it comes o…

The Myth of the ‘Lone Wolf’ Terrorist Continues with New Zealand Attack

By Mark Juergensmeyer

…olf?” The recent attack on two mosques in Christchurch, New Zealand by a 28-year-old white extremist, Brenton Tarrant, killing fifty innocent worshipers in the midst of their weekly prayers, raises the question of how to describe it. Was it a hate crime, an act of terrorism, or both? And if it was terrorism, was it part of an organized conspiracy or was it simply the act of a crazed individual—the so-called “lone wolf” terrorist? Much of the news…
