By Liz Theoharis

…ney to individuals for the development of a strong universal social safety net. The attacks on welfare over the past six decades, under both Democratic and Republican administrations, have identified welfare recipients as the problem in need of fixing, obscuring systems that produce their poverty.

That Not-So-Mystifying Rick Warren

By Sarah Posner

…cal opponents of economic regulation and a government-funded social safety net is no surprise. The real shocker is not that Warren — an avowed theological and political conservative — would say this.

…at hand, as well: the proposed definition of pornography casts a very wide net. Defining pornography as things that “arouse sexual propensity, desires or longings” sets a decidedly moral tone without a concrete system of defining methods of evaluating what “sexual desire” actually is or what “incitement” includes. This is especially problematic because conservative Islamic parties, who may define “incitement” differently than Indonesians of other…

…a Butt, R-Columbia, who said when she was in high school, “we gave up Aqua Net hair spray” because of fears “it was causing global warming.” “Since then scientists have said that maybe we shouldn’t have given up that aerosol can because that aerosol can was actually absorbing the Earth’s rays and keeping us from global warming.” Mother Jones has video of the debate.

…ut 4% of the population identifies as LGBT). On the whole, I see that as a net positive and absolutely worth the risk.” Gates’ overall goal, after all, is to get more and more demographic information on the LGBT community so real numbers can be extrapolated from the data. As it is right now, it is impossible to get a true count of gay and lesbian people because many surveys, including the U.S. Census, don’t explicitly ask if respondents indentify…

…r.” “Follow the Prophet” is the theme of children’s songs, refrigerator magnets, breakfast mugs, and board games. The then-Apostle Harold B. Lee added politics: “You may not like what comes from the authority of the Church,” he cautioned. “It may contradict your political views… But if you listen to these things, as if from the mouth of the Lord himself… the promise is that ‘the gates of hell shall not prevail against you.’” No leader was consider…

By Sarah Posner

…given the church exclusively.”) Religious liberals who protest Beck’s theological heresies would do well to recognize the dangers of his other heresies as well. It’s not enough to defend the Bible from Glenn Beck; liberals will also need to defend the role of government in creating a social safety net and a regulatory structure that protects and enhances the economic lives of its citizens. While Beck has his conservative critics, they do agree on…

Christian Health Sharing Ministries Aren’t All Corrupt — But Here’s Why They Are a Problem

By Chrissy Stroop

…d as public goods. Here in the United States, of course, the social safety net is already grossly inadequate, and private health insurance still costs too much and covers too little. Why would people want to leave themselves even less protected? The answer is, in a word, ideology. To be more specific, the problem is a right-wing authoritarian ideology in which it’s considered ideal to force people to depend on their families, churches, “God,” and…
