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…

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…

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…

Why Must Jesus Contain Gluten?

By Benjamin Dueholm

…charist, it included a restatement of a prohibition of totally wheat-gluten-free hosts. This was often reported as something of a snub of the Celiac sufferers (or gluten intolerant) among the faithful. But reading through the directive and the supporting documentation, I was struck by their attempts to accommodate communicants who can’t tolerate some essential aspect of the rite. The bread for the host can be so low in gluten as to qualify for “gl…

The Higher the Dome, The Closer to God: “Megachurches” Explores the Arid Architecture of America’s New Sanctuaries

By Anita Little

…eeriness of all the images together was intentional or if it’s just an eye-of-the-beholder thing? It just is what it is. That’s what it looks like. That’s what that strain of faith looks like. Like the look of Catholic cathedrals is very different from megachurches because there really is an idea of the divine in the architecture. Megachurches are more about having a big enough space for everyone to fit in, so it’s really not about this feeling o…

Are Conservative Churches Really Winning by Being More Orthodox?

By Daniel Schultz

…line Protestant denominations that would take issue with being labeled less-than-orthodox. And even relatively conservative Catholics like the newly-minted Pope Francis would agree that the “Christian moral code” involves a commitment to peace and social justice, which Eberstadt seems to ignore in favor of questions of sexual morality. (To be fair, Simon didn’t ask her about such issues.) But the heart of Eberstadt’s argument is demographics, and…

Corporations, Religious Conscience, Citizens United, and Contraception

By Sarah Posner

…arises when one’s money circuitously flows to support the conduct of other free-exercise-wielding individuals who hold religious beliefs that differ from one’s own. * * * Under plaintiffs’ interpretation of RFRA, a law substantially burdens one’s religion whenever it requires an outlay of funds that might eventually be used by a third party in a manner inconsistent with one’s religious values. This is at most a de minimus burden on religious prac…

Here’s What the Court Didn’t Decide in Masterpiece

By Patrick Hornbeck

…wo justices—Clarence Thomas and Neil Gorsuch—showed interest in Phillips’s free-speech claims, relying on Phillips’s description of himself as “an artist” and on the labor and imagination that he puts into his frosted creations. In a long footnote, dissenting Justices Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Sonia Sotomayor decisively rejected their colleagues’ argument, observing that Phillips had offered “no evidence showing that an objective observer understand…

Supreme Court Conservatives Allow Execution of Muslim Prisoner Despite Religious Freedom Violation

By Andrew L. Seidel

…civil rights case, essentially giving the bigoted bakery a get-out-of-jail-free card. The court did so because, when a Christian is facing off against the government, the First Amendment is important: “the Constitution’s guarantee of free exercise, cannot impose regulations that are hostile to the religious beliefs of affected citizens …. The Free Exercise Clause bars even ‘subtle departures from neutrality’ on matters of religion.” The Commissio…

Why I’m Not An Organ Donor

By Kristel Clayville

…can’t. So the telescopic story is one of free resources and the skills of highly-trained professionals (skills gained with tax-payer subsidies) helping the well-insured and financially well-off overcome diseases and extend their lives, while medically qualified candidates without financial and social means run out of options. From a social justice perspective, this story mirrors the story of the United States in general: most of the resources flo…
