Irony Thick in Bush Interview with Focus on the Family

…about his new book Decision Points, Bush did what he has always done best: talk out of both sides of his mouth without realizing the hypocrisy of his words. Daly, similarly, did what he and Focus does best—not getting that the message they’re putting out starkly reveals their own hypocrisy. For example, Bush tells Daly: “I don’t believe you can lead by demonizing somebody. I believe you lead by convincing somebody,” he says. “And in my case, I was…

Space X and the Photo-Op: Trump’s Use of the Bible Was Just the Latest in a Series of Christian Nationalist Messages

…h biblical language. Marina Koren has shown that Pence’s space exploration talk fits with an older evangelical tradition that defines space as the “ultimate frontier.” Cold-War anxieties shaped this tradition as Christians constructed space as a lawless wilderness where the capitalist forces of good (i.e., the US) are destined to overcome the communist forces of evil (i.e., the Soviets) and bring law and order to the cosmos. The administration’s B…

Everything You Think You Know About the Dark Ages is Wrong

…and swept up the manuscript.  “This way. I asked for special permission to talk.” We went into the back room, where a trio who looked like professor and students were discussing another manuscript. We sat down at the opposite end of the long table; the clerk closed the door.  Juste relaxed. He began flipping through the pages, pointing to letters, running his finger along a line, thumbing pages back and forth—for all the hoopla, he didn’t treat “t…

Israeli Forest Fire as Divine Punishment, Religious Leaders (From Both Sides) Agree

…Responsibility Haniyeh is more modern than ancient—a politician using God talk to protect his political power as he moves his party toward the center, ultimately hoping for a peace agreement that will give Palestinians independence on terms they can live with. Ovadia is more ancient than modern—an ultra-orthodox rabbi using God talk to try to protect his followers from the 21st-century culture that they find alien and often inimical, playing poli…

It’s Not “Inappropriate” for Public School Teacher to Tell Class that Obama Isn’t Christian

…was accompanied by her husband, Reverend Bill Perry, a former conservative talk show host and current member of the Board of Education. Parents reported that the Perrys “doubled down” at the meeting by presenting pages from a website defending their political and religious views. The Georgia NAACP has suggested that Bill Perry’s presence at the meeting was an intimidation tactic and that exerting influence in this fashion violates the standards en…

Racial Justice and Queer Masculinity: The Gospel of Frank Ocean

…and sanctimonious denial too often prevent us from directing such grown-up talk towards God. But for those who believe God gives a damn, this sort of “real talk” is essential. So with the poetic chutzpah that can only be found in the Hebrew scriptures, Job cries, There are those who snatch the orphan child from the breast, and take as a pledge the infant of the poor. They go about naked, without clothing; though hungry, they carry the sheaves; […]…

Interfaith Alliance Criticizes Fox News Anti-Mormonism

…ing to answer questions about the Mormon Church rather than having time to talk about why or why they would not be good people to be elected. Certainly there are times to talk about the faith of a candidate, but not in terms of a kind of interrogation. The emphasis on faith is only a part of personal identity. It has nothing to do with their capacity to lead. Mormons tend to assume that political and religious conservatives are our natural allies….

God Dissolves into the Occupy Movement

…ks ago when I visited the #OccupyStLouis encampment on a Sunday morning, I talked with a small group of demonstrators about the intersection of faith and money and fair treatment of workers. Most of them hadn’t given it any thought. “Maybe we should occupy the churches,” one protester half-joked as we talked. It’s a notion I’ve been turning over in my mind ever since. What would it mean for God’s people to claim God’s sanctuaries as functioning pa…

Did the Church Create or Co-Opt Human Rights?

…strengthen its commitment to evangelization. I think that you cannot just talk of a defeat for Christian principles, but of a defeat for humanity.” Pope Francis, once again confounding some liberals’ fondest hopes for his papacy, said nothing to distance himself from the second most prominent representative of the Church. Although not covered by most Anglophone media, Cardinal Parolin’s remarks at the close of the conference were also revealing….
