Don’t Discount Evangelicalism as a Factor in Racist Murder of Asian Spa Workers in Georgia

By Chrissy Stroop

…g targeted is also common. Akiko Bergeron* knows this firsthand as an Asian-American woman who was active in Southern Baptist communities for decades, before evangelical Trump support led her to become an exvangelical. Bergeron told RD, “White supremacy holds Asians in a weird light, complimenting them on being the ‘good minority,’ while also devaluing women into sex objects who exist for their pleasure.” Describing her own experience, she recalle…

Purity Culture is Also About National Purity: Anti-Asian Hate and Purity Culture [Audio]

By Bradley Onishi

…s https://religiondispatches.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/Anti-Asian-Hate-and-Purity-Culture-Excerpt.mp3 Purity culture is about more than bodily purity. It’s about national purity. It’s about racial purity. It’s about ethnic purity. Okay. So if we bring all these things together, we have a man who seems like he was brought up in youth group purity culture in a church. That was probably—and I’ve tried to check this out and the sites are down b…

A Note To Churches During Pride: If You’re Not LGBTQ-Affirming, Keep Your Water

By Chrissy Stroop

…Now I can do so easily: these efforts amount to deliberately deceptive bait-and-switch tactics, and they center anti-LGBTQ Christians’ feelings over the feelings, health, and welfare of LGBTQ folks. The same dynamic is in play in megachurches like Hillsong that trumpet that “all are welcome,” while in fact these churches will neither solemnize same-sex weddings nor allow LGBTQ folks to volunteer or serve in leadership roles. For people who are sup…

This Quote About ‘Pregnant’ Church From Outgoing SBC President is Deeply Troubling For Anyone Concerned About Sexual Abuse

By Jill Hicks-Keeton

…endered assignation of blame and enculturation of fear. The language of “so-and-so gets pregnant” is a linguistic construction that can only have the impregnated woman, the assumed offender, as the subject. It obscures the involvement of any inseminating sexual partner. She is the one who is caught. She is the one who should be afraid. The chances that Greear intended to scare women are next to none. Rather, the metaphor of church as promiscuous w…

The January 6 Select Committee Cannot Ignore This Christian Movement

By Andrew L. Seidel

…ationalism played on that horrible day. Some of that work will appear in a new epilogue for the paperback of my book, The Founding Myth: Why Christian Nationalism Is Un-American, which focuses on the January 6 terrorist attack. Every day I learn more about how the permission structures within Christian Nationalism motivated the terrorists and how it cuts across the other motivations and identities we saw that day, including the absurd Qanon conspi…

Anti-Vaxx Cardinal Burke, Just Off the Ventilator, is Becoming a Living Anti-Abortion Martyr

By Karen E. Park

…ask. It was sometime during this period of time that Burke contracted Covid-19. The news that he was ailing was met with a great deal of schadenfreude on social media with some expressing hope for his death. Sarcastic promises of “thoughts and prayers” abounded, as did more thoughtful tweets like this one by @Sisyphus1989: “I’m saying a prayer for those who lack access to necessary medical care because people like Cardinal Burke are taking up hosp…

Recognizing (the Long History of) Christian Witches May Be Key to Diversifying Witch Community

By Daniel Wise

…you witchcraft is forbidden in scripture. They might point to the magical book-burning Paul orchestrates in Acts chapter 19, or quote the King James Version of the famous passage from Exodus 22, “Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live.” Christian ministers and leaders in Europe and the United States have often condemned magic in the centuries since, with many of the more recent versions involving pop culture, like the banning of Harry Potter books…

As US Reaches a 1940s Fork in the Road — Which Path Will We Choose?

By John Stoehr

…ed stability. Political regimes need economic stability to stay viable long-term. But fascists don’t care about the long term. They care about feeding grievance addictions. They build policy around that. Perhaps this ties into your observation about “civil war.” It would take sacrifice of an order that most people would reject. Exactly. I think the potential for violence and destruction is great. But I don’t see that as lasting long term, because…

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

By A. E. Brooks-Key

…stitutional racism in American Christianity, as Robert Jones does in his latest book, White Too Long: The Legacy of White Supremacy in American Christianity, but we must also consider how race itself is theologically constructed and embedded in sacred structures, as J. Kameron Carter does in Race: A Theological Account. When Metaxas projects whiteness onto Jesus he commits one of the chief flaws of racialism: viewing humans as distinct and permane…

Satanic Harmonies and Zoom Church: Readers Respond

By Daniel Schultz

…same piece: Immediately after reading your piece, I opened up the Israeli news website Maariv, and was confronted with the following article title: “Likud supporters attacked a Likud MK [Member of Knesset] who thanked Yair Lapid for his well wishes – and here is how she responded.” The article proceeds to quote a single tweet by a known religious extremist, who attacked a Likud MK that thanked Lapid for wishing her a speedy recovery after an acci…
