“Exvangelical” Podcast: Safe Space for Those “Living In, Leaving, or Coming to Terms With” Evangelicalism

By Chrissy Stroop

In June 2015, I asserted here on RD that “we need to listen to the voices of those who have been harmed by the fundamentalist tendencies in evangelicalism,” and that “we need to center the voices of LGBTQ youth, such as transgender teen Leelah Alcorn who was driven to suicide by her evangelical upbringing.” Almost two years later, white evangelicals are demonstrably the demographic most singularly responsible for bringing us the disastrous presid…

DeVos Literally Can’t Name a Discriminatory Policy She’d Refuse to Fund

By Sunnivie Brydum

In a tense exchange with Massachusetts Rep. Katherine Clark on Wednesday, Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos refused to identify a single example of discriminatory policies that would make a private school ineligible for federal funding. The conversation, captured by CSPAN and embedded below, is astounding in how clearly it exposes the scope of “faith-based” discriminatory actions that DeVos is willing to permit. Rep. Clark, a Democrat who has “m…

Rev. Rob Lee Lost Congregation For His Anti-Racism Speech: Here’s Why He Should Have Packed His Bags First

By Daniel Schultz

…em where congregations are given the freedom to discern the path for themselves. It makes no difference that the pastor or anyone else thinks they’re going down the wrong road. Congregations get to choose their direction, they get to define themselves. The bolder the confrontation over a matter like this, the stronger the resistance. This is terribly unsatisfying for those who would like to nudge the body of Christ in a certain direction, but it i…

#NamaSlay, Or How Black Women Are Using Trap Yoga as a Mode of Spiritual Resistance

By Anita Little

…nt, especially now, is that it gives people a moment to take care of themselves in a space that feels native and comfortable. “Especially for women of color, we’ve been conditioned to take care of the world, so when you take care of yourself, you feel selfish. It gives women of color permission to love themselves and permission to say no to things. For those who’ve stepped outside of organized religion and don’t feel seen, they are seen in trap yo…

Serbia’s embattled LGBT residents face widespread harassment and violence from extremists. Violence marred the first pride march in 2001, and more than 100 people were injured during an event in 2010 when police clashed with right-wing groups and soccer hooligans. Several pride events were banned before marches resumed in 2014. Despit…

By Daniel Schultz

…stupid.” In case you’ve been hiding under a rock recently, Masterpiece involves a Colorado baker who refused to sell a wedding cake to a same-sex couple due to his religious beliefs. He was substantially fined by the Colorado Civil Rights Commission, but with the help of the ADF, appealed the case all the way up to the Supreme Court, where he ultimately emerged victorious. The decision was “narrow” in the sense of being limited in scope and more c…

Pierre Teilhard de Chardin’s Legacy of Eugenics and Racism Can’t Be Ignored

By John P. Slattery

…ist is simultaneously “the organic center of the entire universe,” “the evolver,” and the eschatological fulfillment—the Omega Point—of all creation: “Someone, and no longer something, is in gestation in the universe. To believe and to serve was not enough: we now find that it is becoming not only possible but imperative literally to love evolution.” If one believes in God, for Teilhard, one should also believe in evolution in the Christocentric u…

This piece is a response to Andrea Jain’s “Fox News Controversy on Yoga Reveals Problem of Yoga Discussion.” Read Jain’s response here. Nobody in the world, nobody in history, has ever gotten their freedom by appealing to the moral sense of the people who were oppressing them. – Assata Shakur Earlier this year, Fox News ran a piece titled, “Americans who practice yoga contribute to white supremacy, Michigan State University professor claims,” l…

Parkland Activists Don’t Care What You Think And They’re Not Interested in the Faith Wars

By Daniel Schultz

…what the NRA enablers might say, the question of gun politics does not revolve around the morality of being nice to one another in public discourse. If you ask the kids from Parkland, that frame died along with their friends on Valentine’s Day. They’re not here to be nice, and they’re very upfront about that. But it would be easy to make a similar mistake from the other side of the equation. It’s tempting to conclude that #NEVERAGAIN has changed t…
