How the Christian Nationalist Version of ‘The American Story’ Enabled Georgia’s Anti-Black Voter Restriction Law [Audio]

By Bradley Onishi

…nd here. — eds https://religiondispatches.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/RD-Excerpt-3.26.21.wav Bradley Onishi: Here’s what happened in Georgia. A lot of people of color got together and they thwarted what seemed to be an insurmountable white Christian nationalist majority. They helped to vote out Trump. They elected a Black man and a Jewish man to the Senate. They flip the Senate in the process. And so guess what we’re going to do? Scorched ear…

Dobson’s Baby: Trump’s Baptism at the Evangelical-Washing Font

By Jonathan Russell

…hear—the language Dobson is injecting here on his behalf via the he-prayed-the-salvation-prayer motif. And now we’re watching the evangelical punditry talk themselves into supporting this “baby Christian,” into heralding the softening and engendering of ‘faith’ within him. In one sense, this whole conversion affair is affect all the way down. Trump’s success with the populist base took everyone by surprise. Now, the punditry is trying to feel wha…

The Right Attacks Obama’s Religious Advisors

By Sarah Posner

…er circle, and it is so dumb, false, and rooted in the every-Muslim-must-be-a-terrorist mania that no doubt it will eventually penetrate the conservative consciousness. The theme of Hunter’s book, A New Kind of Conservative, is the blandly inoffensive notion that someone can be conservative and nice at the same time — so the right clearly wants to keep it far, far away from the children. But Hunter, whose niceness includes interfaith dialogue and…

Ultra Orthodox Murder-Suicide Makes Headlines

By Shalom Goldman

…l behavior is forbidden by Rabbinic law, gay relationships within the ultra-Orthodox community are conducted in the deep shadows. Heterosexual relationships are, of course, supposed to be confined to marriage, and these relationships too fascinate secular Israeli readers. Books with titles like A Hole in the Sheet, which purport to “disclose all” about the sexual habits of Haredim, do well in the bookstores; and Israeli films in which Haredi chara…

Why Are Conservative Women Turning The Other Cheek On Vitter Aide’s Domestic Violence?

By Sarah Posner

Over at TPM, Brian Beutler tries to get some answers from conservative womens’ groups — you know, the Mama Grizzlies — about Louisana Republican Senator David Vitter keeping Brent Furer, his legislative aide on women’s issues, on staff for two years after Furer pled guilty to assaulting his girlfriend with a knife. As Beutler reports, the conservative womens’ groups stayed mum, as they did when Vitter was exposed in 2007 as a client of the “D.C….

What’s a Progressive Christian to Do? Plant a Garden [A Response]

By Daniel Schultz

…rch of Christ, the mainline Protestant denominations are politically middle-of-the-road or maybe just a little left of center. Progressives certainly don’t dominate those churches, again with the UCC being the exception to the rule. Even more broadly, American Christianity is a decentralized affair. There is no single formal or moral authority that all American Christians listen to. In fact, Christianity in these United States has always been divi…

Cross-Burning Hearing Ends, Trial Set to Begin

By Lauri Lebo

…d to begin July 26. I’ll be honest, every time I think of the case, I just feel sad. From the moment Freshwater feared losing his job, he has tried to present himself as a martyr to religious discrimination. He has argued that the case has been about the fact that he kept a bible on his desk. (In their lawsuit, the Dennis family never mentions the bible, nor was it an issue in their initial complaints to the school district.) Every step of the way…

Take the Van Gogh Challenge: Doctor Who Part VII

By Gabriel Mckee

…he hasn’t yet painted “Sunflowers” (a minor historical inaccuracy), Amy not-so-subtly arranges dozens of them outside his home. At the conclusion of the episode, the Doctor goes perhaps further than he’s ever gone before into “interfering” territory, bringing van Gogh for a trip in the TARDIS to see his work on display in the Musée d’Orsay. The artist is (understandably) awestruck—what greater contrast could there be to his day-to-day life, where…

Can the Religious Left be Effective Again? Short Answer: No

By Daniel Schultz

…logically liberal Christianity. There’s certainly room to criticize liberal-to-moderate churches for their lack of zeal, but as a thesis for explaining the problems with the religious left, it’s misguided. Some fool will no doubt show up in the comments to say that liberal churches are hemorrhaging members because of their politics, but it just isn’t so (for a lot of reasons). The decline is typically measured from the artificial high of the 1950s…

Satanists Infiltrate a Ritual Abuse Conference in Oakland: Your Guide to What Happened and Why

By Joseph Laycock

…tory with the headline, “Brain-Washing Tactics Force Chinese into Ranks of Communist Party” in the Miami News. That article introduced “brainwashing” to the American vocabulary. During the Cold War “brainwashing” became a way to acknowledge the loyalty of communist soldiers while simultaneously discrediting it as a kind of false consciousness. It also helped to explain American POWs who appeared to cooperate with their communist captors. How did t…
