Why Antisemitism is an Insufficient (and Risky) Explanation for Hamas’s October 7 Attack on Israel

By Shane Burley

…happen. The assumption of a Jewish conspiracy is all that’s required to decode the attacker’s rationale. Violence stemming from this logic has a long history in the US and around the world. The Pittsburgh synagogue shooting in 2018 was an effort to stop the “migrant caravan” because, according to the shooter, Jews are responsible for orchestrating non-White immigration to replace native-born Whites. In 2006, a Moroccan-Jewish man named Ilan Halim…

What a Forgotten 19th Century Suffragist Can Teach Us About Women’s Rights vs. The Religious Right

By S. Brent Rodriguez Plate

…t one set alone, one clique alone, but for men and women, black and white, Irish and Germans, Americans and negroes, there can be no permanent peace.” Dreading any further chiseling away of the wall between church and state, Gage founded her own group, the Woman’s National Liberal Union, in 1890. This move entailed that she was effectively written out of much of women’s rights history since she decisively broke with the main conventions of the tim…

Evangelicals ‘Crossing the Tiber’ to Catholicism

By Jonathan D. Fitzgerald

…such a thing. I grew up outside of Boston in what could be described as an Irish-Catholic family, except for one minor detail: my parents had left the Church six years before I was born when they were swept up in the so-called “Jesus Movement” of the 1970s. So Catholicism was all around me, but it was not mine. I went to mass with my grandparents, grew up around the symbolism of rosary beads and Virgin Mary statues, attended a Catholic high school…

Beware of Yoga, Taking the Jesus Out of AA, Atheist Billboard Wars—The Sequel

By Michael J. Altman

…om prosecution but the church includes members without tribal ancestry. An Irish judge ordered a man to climb the country’s holiest mountain as punishment for swearing at police officers. Albert Mohler, president of the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, warns that yoga maybe a danger to a Christian’s faith. The city of Gainesville is billing the local pastor who planned to burn a couple hundred Qurans $200,000 in security costs. That’s about…

Pope Compares Abortion to Nazi Eugenics

By Sikivu Hutchinson

…ies of immoral Catholic dominion over women’s right to self-determination. Irish women who advocated for the repeal spoke of traveling to England and other countries to have abortions under duress. While stories of women dying from untested medication, organic concoctions, and back alley procedures are legion in abortion narratives throughout history, the Catholic church’s assault on abortion, birth control, and reproductive rights keeps the women…

Whose God in America?

By Marian Ronan

…grandparents, on one side, and great-grandparents on the other, were poor Irish immigrants. I inherited from them my perspective on US religious history. I cannot deny, though, that many Christians from Europe, Catholics included, treated the native peoples abominably. As God in America proceeded, however, I became increasingly annoyed. We moved from the Franciscans to the Puritans, with John Winthrop ostensibly treating Anne Hutchinson as badly…

It’s Not Me, It’s You: Catholic Values Dumping Trump

By Patricia Miller

…ants. Catholics who trace their roots to nineteenth century populations of Irish, Italian, German and Polish immigrants retain a vestigial memory of the vehement anti-Catholic and anti-immigrant backlash their grandparents and great-grandparents faced. They may be particularly turned off by Trump’s promises of mass deportation and his categorization of immigrants as rapists and murderers. But it’s also possible that the great Catholic stampede of…

Vatican Equates Women’s Ordination with Priest Pedophilia?

By Mary E. Hunt

…unerals. He could be relied on to lead a Eucharist where everyone from the Irish grandmother to the smallest child was included, welcome at the table, and edified. According to Catholic theology well understood, all Catholics are priests by virtue of baptism. Bill Callahan’s funeral liturgy held recently in a public school all-purpose room (sans air conditioning) was one such example of this reality. The gifted radio show host Maureen Fiedler of I…

Can You Be Liberal and Catholic?

By Patricia Miller

…health advocate. So Cardinal Timothy Dolan can go on “Meet the Press” and promote an anti-contraception agenda that’s out of line with the 99 percent of Catholic women who have used birth control and no one questions it, but a group of nuns representing mainstream Catholic thought on contraception are dupes of the reproductive rights lobby? And does anyone really think that the Little Sisters of the Poor aren’t being used by the Becket Fund for R…

Douthat’s Sinister Subtext

By Syreeta McFadden

…crowded sanctuary of city employees of Chinese, Nigerian, German, Italian, Irish descent. Jewish, Sikh, Buddhist, Christian, Muslim. A gorgeous mosaic. We were all New Yorkers, and we were all Americans. We were mourning a great loss. We prayed for the dead. We prayed for the survivors. We prayed for peace. However, the narrative of 9/11 for many others is at odds with the average New Yorker. Many have watched video the towers fall repeatedly, ha…
