Recent Debates Highlight Democrats’ Antisemitism Blind Spot—But It’s Not What You Think

…ver, as Kamala Harris’ photo-op with California AIPAC leaders (taken after committing to not attending the conference) suggests, this may be more about the preservation of optics for the sake of a high-stakes campaign. https://twitter.com/JamalDajani/status/1110362705775345664 Like Republicans, Democrats frame their support of Israel as fundamentally American and resulting from the abhorrence of antisemitism. But the Democrats don’t seem intereste…

…e) that held the statue would be animated and blow its horns at the Second Coming. This prophecy had now been proven false, they claimed. It’s possible the most common response to the news were humorous suggestions that the red state of Utah had been divinely charged to give up its support for President Trump and the Republican Party.

…ssues” is an example of a kind of convenient deliberate vagueness that’s become common among “respectable” evangelicals, but to anyone intimately familiar with white evangelical subculture, in context it’s instantly recognizable as a dog whistle gesturing toward anti-LGBTQ and anti-abortion stances. Meanwhile, the statement “Jesus is here for all the sinners” represents a faux-inclusive stance of the sort called out by Church Clarity, an organizat…

‘The White Privileged Man’s Burden’: If Jesus Was White Who Are We to Question the ‘Privilege’ That Came With it?

…s no better example of “white fragility” than the response of conservative commentator Eric Metaxas to DiAngelo’s video with the following tweet: “Jesus was white. Did he have “white privilege” even though he was entirely without sin? Is the United Methodist Church covering that? I think it could be important.” https://twitter.com/ericmetaxas/status/1287829767753019393?s=20 As expected some members of the Twitterverse took Metaxas to task for the…

Hey Hey, Ho Ho White Jesus Has to Go… But The Issue is More Complicated Than You Think

…y still be present for African Americans and others even after white Jesus comes down and browner and blacker depictions become normalized within American society? I argue that the removal of white Jesus as an icon doesn’t directly equate to the uplifting of Black humanity on theological grounds. The question of how Jesus should be depicted in racial terms is more complicated than representing the “right” color. The push to remove white Jesus and…

You Can Take The Boy Out of the Crack House: MyPillow CEO’s New Book Promo Has Deep Roots in American Christianity

…and profound. I think it’s Euclidean geometry. At the same time, Lindell’s commerical taps deep roots in American religion. We have always been a nation eager to seek redemption from former sins, all the way back to Jonathan Edwards’ sinners in the hands of an angry God to the Methodist and Presbyterian strivers of the Second Great Awakening, all the way up to today’s megachurches preaching self-help. More important, we’ve always been a nation wil…

…ally imperative for politicians like Hoylman, along with the New York City Commission on Human Rights, to raise concerns about possible discrimination in patient care by Samaritan’s Purse staff.

‘Restart the Economy’ is a Prayer to a Conservative God Who Demands Human Sacrifice

…edictably centers on reversing these obstacles. “Restart the economy” is becoming a refrain. President Trump has already tweeted in this direction: “WE CANNOT LET THE CURE BE WORSE THAN THE PROBLEM ITSELF.” https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1241935285916782593 His top economic advisor, Larry Kudlow, has spelled-out things further: “The economic cost to individuals is just too great … we’re going to have to make some difficult trade-offs.”…

Does ‘Criss-Cross Apple Sauce’ Make Yoga Secular? Opponents of Yoga in Public Schools Have a Point

…ord-centered understanding of “religion” as consisting primarily of verbal communication of beliefs, rather than performance of bodily practices. Legislators are optimistic that they can have their yoga without establishing religion, as long as they remove Sanskrit terms and chants. By contrast, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) interprets Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 as defining religion “very broadly” to “include ‘a…

In Order to Move Forward We Must Believe the Unbelievable: Some Choose Death Over Democracy

…n you know you’re going to come back and do it over again. https://twitter.com/NewDay/status/1328319845012824065 When people would rather believe they’re dying from lung cancer than from Covid-19—that’s what Doering reported to CNN—what can you do as a nurse? Nothing, except get “sad and mad and frustrated.” What can you do as a citizen? Well, pretty much the same thing. You cannot expect cooperation from people who believe cooperation is defeat,…
