Besides a Love of Chinese Food on Christmas, Why “JewAsian” Unions Work

…s through all of our interviews—largely because our interviewees wanted to talk about many other aspects of their lives! Having said that, many of the millennial grown children of JewAsian families told us about their political involvements without being prompted, and so we did include those responses. What are some of the biggest misconceptions about your topic? Many people—including the two of us at the beginning of this project and largely as a…

Of Personhood and the Pill: What’s at Stake?

…simply take their word for it. The same contradictions are evident when we talk about ectopic pregnancy treatment. Significant controversy exists about the appropriate pro-life approach to ectopic pregnancy treatment. Some doctors are comfortable preemptively treating doomed pregnancies by using the chemotherapy drug methotrexate to induce a miscarriage. Others, notably Catholic physicians, do not believe in such direct intervention; they prefer t…

…ws Service reported that a Ugandan priest, Rev. Anthony Musaala, said in a talk at a Syracuse, NY, Catholic Church that people are beaten, raped, evicted, and fired from their jobs due to being gay, and said a growing number of LGBT Ugandans are feeling for Kenya.

Stop Debunking Climate Change Deniers

…itz’s recent, excellent piece at the New Republic, “This Is How You Should Talk to a Climate-Change Denier.” Shulevitz, drawing on the work of psychologist Daniel Kahneman, makes the seemingly obvious point that human decision making and risk assessment aren’t especially rational. Simply put: scientific facts do not, as a rule, sway science denialists. That’s the whole problem, right? Shulevitz goes on to point out that, for many people, it’s actu…

What Makes Mormons Weird?

…zation, most observant Mormons are a lot like Mitt Romney when it comes to talking about Mormon specifics: Don’t say anything inflammatory. Don’t reveal anything that would open you to ridicule. Keep it brief. Accentuate the positive. Be nice. Go home. If Mitt Romney and the rest of us learned to talk more forthrightly about our difference—to own the fact that the literalism, newness, and grandeur of orthodox Mormon belief does in fact make us a l…

Pope Francis Distances Himself Further from the Right in New Interview

…was reprimanded for that. But when we speak about these issues, we have to talk about them in a context. The teaching of the church, for that matter, is clear and I am a son of the church, but it is not necessary to talk about these issues all the time. The dogmatic and moral teachings of the church are not all equivalent. The church’s pastoral ministry cannot be obsessed with the transmission of a disjointed multitude of doctrines to be imposed i…

What’s Behind a Conservative Mormon’s Call For “Religious Freedom” Advocates to “Stand Down” on LGBT Rights

…t’s on them. It’s not on us. … And if we get persecuted, so be it. If we lose, so be it.” When asked if he believes religious freedom and LGBT rights are inherently at odds, Mero flips the script: “I would say that the LGBT focus on civil rights is at odds with religious freedom.” And despite his talk of good-faith efforts on both sides, Mero concedes that he doesn’t actually believe a compromise is imminent. Barring a seismic shift in the way LGB…

A Furious Sadness: Conversation with Christian Protester of Nazi-Saluting Trump Supporter

…now. Tell me about Birgitt Peterson. What were you feeling while you were talking with her? Initially I was feeling a little confused. The whole ends justifying the means. I was more okay with grown folks yelling at each other while some filed out of a building, than with us yelling at this older couple. It didn’t sit right. And I wish I could say it was a talk. I thought she was sort of docile, harmless—in some ways lost in that crowd. I saw her…

New Vatican Document Good News for Poor, Bad News for Tea Party

…eir say there. Now is the time to declare a solemn moratorium on papal sex talk. Leave masturbation to the masturbators. Leave pregnancy decisions to pregnant women—women have a better track record on life issues. And leave those whom God has made gay free to bond in love. Back you go—as this document does—to “carry forward the work of Jesus,” which he himself defined as “good news for the poor” (Luke 4:18 ); when the Neocons in Nazareth heard tha…

No Zombies Here, Just a Bunch of Women Talking to the Dead

…own voices. What’s the most important take-home message for readers? That talking to the dead is a long-standing and common—though underexplored—practice in the South Carolina lowcountry. Most of all, while some might see talking to the dead as antithetical to or in conflict with traditional Protestant Christianity, it is a spiritual practice that is seamlessly integrated into the lives of the seven women in the study. Is there anything you had t…
