“That Guy In Rome”: A Catholic Town in Idaho Where The Pope is a Heretic

By Jason Wilson

…mist zeal won over their pastoral sense,” as Doherty puts it. Wherever the commitment to the new Mass led to an overenthusiastic attempt to get rid of the Latin Mass, breakaway groups were encouraged, and Catholics were driven into the arms of groups sometimes led by erratic personalities like Schuckardt—who held troubling views about race, penance, and conspiracy. If Latin Mass Catholicism is—as Francis hinted—a kind of fundamentalism, the answer…

Oprah Talks Down to Fundamentalist Mormon Girls

By Fatemeh Fakhraie

…t are seen as cultish or very traditional. Several of Oprah’s comments and questions highlighted this arrogant narrative: when asking the girls about polygynous marriage, her tone indicated the idea was distasteful, even after the girls explained their belief in and acceptance of the practice as a part of their faith and lifestyle. Another example is when Oprah remarked that all of the girls’ dresses looked alike. The girls, however, can tell the…

Opposing Anti-Choice Legislation Isn’t a Violation of Religious Freedom, It’s an Expression of It

By Rebecca Todd Peters

…is women’s ability to control their bodies and their reproductive decision-making. Questions about personhood and when life begins and ends are theological and philosophical questions. They are not medical questions. Historically, legal theory reflects the philosophical and religious beliefs of particular cultural contexts, and the current debate over abortion has brought to the fore a very public debate about the relationship between theology an…

5 Reasons That Cartoons Are the 21st Century’s Great Metaphysical Playground

By Ilana E. Strauss

…ung age. Cartoons provide a vehicle for philosophy that’s more playful and open-ended than the sort in sermons or journals, one that doesn’t attach “-isms” to itself, demand its audience take metaphysical sides, or even take the questions too seriously. Big questions are tough. Questions about the nature of reality, the existence of a God or gods, death, souls and the essence of morality are hard to even talk about, let alone answer. If you don’t…

Who Would Jesus Marry?

By Elizabeth Drescher

…iminary findings this week in Rome at a conference on Coptic studies. More testing is forthcoming, but there is a reasonable scholarly consensus that the papyrus, an apparent artifact of a late second-century Christian community somewhere in Egypt, merits further study. These are among the salient facts of the discovery at this point, and scholars quickly began queuing up to weigh in on whether or not the fragment is authentic. But the more popula…

Pray Vote Stand 2022 Kicks Off With Some Head-Scratchers on Predictable Topics

By PRA Staff

…s have been answered thusly, Katy Faust, founder of Them Before Us, an anti-LGBT, anti-trans, anti-abortion children’s advocacy organization, takes the stage. Faust claims that children haven’t changed since 1996 when the Defense of Marriage Act was passed, prohibiting federal recognition of marriages outside of one man and one woman. She asks if children haven’t changed, why has marriage? It is time, Faust urges the crowd, to bring back that defi…

Want To Know How 84% of the World Sees Itself: Study Theology

By Alana Massey

…a theological education for those without religious beliefs provided a much-needed opening in public conversation about the need for more theology programs at major universities. But what was disappointing about Burton’s article was the missed opportunity to discuss how studying theology can inform practical disciplines that are in dire need of new approaches, instead focusing almost exclusively on theology’s function in the study of history. Burt…

Is ‘Beyond Doubt’ Correct About the Decline of Religion? Yes… Sort Of.

By Lucas McCracken

…ion Isabella Kasselstrand, Phil Zuckerman, and Ryan Cragun insist in their new book, Beyond Doubt: the Secularization of Society, that “Secularization is happening. Secularization is real. It’s beyond doubt.” Relying on surveys of religious life from around the world, Kasselstrand, Zuckerman, and Cragun show that “modernized” or “modernizing” nations, like the United States, China, Australia, Thailand, Czech Republic, and many more are becoming le…

Setting a Low Bar: Religious Entities Praised for Treating Covid Religious Exemptions Responsibly

By Chrissy Stroop

…ligious institutions attractive in large enough numbers that their leaders feel compelled to publicly distance themselves from their flocks? (And speaking of numbers, the inclusion of data on religious affiliation and support for vaccine exemptions would have improved the AP article significantly.) But the bigger story here, which slides into the background, is that America’s right-wing politics of “religious freedom” running amok is driving lawsu…

Evolution and Creation Fight to the Death: What Emerges from the Ashes

By Philip Clayton

…or a broader view of religion. John Haught puts it brilliantly in his forthcoming book, Making Sense of Evolution: Darwin, God, and the Drama of Life: “If we measure the movement of life in terms of a narrow human preoccupation with design, evolution seems blind and aimless.” Haught offers a vision of what this religion might look like in his own (Christian) context: A properly biblical theology of nature will view divine wisdom, providence and co…
