Not Peace, But Division? Evangelical Vaccine Refusers Divide Families

…d in the Gospel of Luke, Jesus is quoted as saying: “Do you think that I have come to bring peace to the earth? No, I tell you, but rather division! From now on five in one household will be divided, three against two and two against three.” Such thinking primes evangelicals to reject anything embraced by their perceived enemies, for many including the public health initiatives designed to contain the coronavirus pandemic that are supported by sec…

Reactions to Biden’s Korean-American Secret Service Agent Expose Christian Nationalism’s Anti-Asian Side

…norities in contempt, “the Chinese”―and, by extension, Asians in general―have come to play a kind of puppetmaster role in the white supremacist imaginary, fueling attacks not only on Asians, but also on Black and Jewish Americans. It’s therefore in a spirit of solidarity that I invite Asians of all creeds, and allies of all backgrounds, to sign the open letter. For Agent David Cho, drawing fire is part of the job description. The rest of us, howev…

Leper Messiah: A Jesus Freak’s Search for the Meaning of Bowie—A Critical Novella

…ds shtick was as formalized as the laying-on of hands at a faith-healing revival—a spotlit rite of communion between a worshipful crowd, desperate to touch the “leper messiah” (“Ziggy Stardust”), and a star who flirted with delusions of messianic grandeur. In truth, Bowie was haunted by the fear that he would be rock’s first martyr, a blood sacrifice to celebrity culture. He exorcized his fear (even as he indulged his Saint Sebastian complex) befo…

Including Bono on Glamour’s “Women of the Year” List is Two Steps Backwards

…with women. We’re largely responsible for the problem, so we have to be involved in the solutions.” I don’t disagree that men have an important role to play in combatting the pallor of sexism that permeates global society. But efforts that speak directly to other men, like the White House-backed “It’s On Us” campaign to stop sexual assault and domestic violence, seem like they have a greater chance of reaching men who need to hear this message th…

#WhiteChurchQuiet: Anything but Outrage Is Complicity

…oted statement, deeply rooted in its church’s tradition was not enough to overcome the hatred and racism that filled the hearts of many in their pews during this time. Along with this historical reflection, I’ve also been disturbed, dismayed and disheartened by the recent research on white churches and race. According to a recent Public Religion Research Institute survey, white Christians simply are far less likely to believe the experiences of Bl…

Conservative Christian Book on Obama’s Faith

…t he had not “defended Jeremiah Wright”: “I have explained him. I gave an overview of his life, explained black liberation theology (asking experts to check my work) and then I took the reader inside of Trinity Church in Chicago where months before I spent a good deal of time trying to understand. Explaining is not defending except for those who prefer a life of uninformed hate.” He also disagreed with Smith that he “had written a pro-Obama book t…

Searching for Sex, Life and Abortion on Catholic Google

…n a few searches I tried… When I searched for “contraception,” a few conservative articles came up about the Vatican’s antiquated stance on contraception. If I had searched on normal Google, I would have been directed to articles on contraception, how to properly use birth control, and where to purchase contraceptives. Thank goodness CatholicGoogle.com saves us from that blasphemy! The same happened when I searched “stem cell research,” “sex,” “li…

But What Did We Learn? Hate-Watching the First Clinton/Trump Debate

…r. Clinton started off as she meant to continue: ready to push the policy overviews and talking points that anyone who has been paying attention to her speeches, website, or ads should be familiar with. Trump started with a dog whistle about Mexico and fleeing jobs, then continued with the moment that set the tone for the rest of the debate: To some it may not seem so bad at first glance, but any woman who has ever had to smile politely while bein…
