Latest Supporters of Messianic Jews: Duck Dynasty

By Sarah Posner

…th us. Tap your toes with us. And as Phil says, get “HAPPY, HAPPY, HAPPY.” Ticket prices range from $100 for an individual seat to $10,000 for a “Commander” table. Last year, Robertson’s homophobic remarks to GQ magazine, along with his assertion that blacks were “happy” before the civil rights era, caused a temporary suspension of Duck Dynasty by the A&E network, and an outcry of so-called persecution from the family’s conservative supporters. In…

Ihram: Dressing for the King

By Amina Wadud

…personal preparations. Actually the whole thing has been paid in full, the ticket has been purchased with the itinerary sent to me and now I am waiting for the visa process. The thing is, I still have the entire month of October and one week in November before I get on my way. I’ve passed more than 50 days on this blog and have exhausted the best of what I have to say. I think I’ll take a break from the daily routine, and submit one or two a week…

…Letter to Hollywood” from “Faith-Driven Consumer,” warning that 46 million ticket-buyers could be dissuaded from seeing the film, and pressure from the National Religious Broadcasters group. Then came the $26.5 million opening weekend of the Jesus movie Son of God, an adaptation of the History Channel series that the “Open Letter” praises. Now, Paramount seems ready to try again.

Blame Series Bonus: Why We Want That Dish For Free, an Uncut Interview with Bertram Malle

By Andrew Aghapour

…nfairness. We have put in our part—we went to the airport, we paid for our ticket, we spent our time, we stood in line—and then the flight was cancelled. So there’s a discrepancy between the inputs and the outputs, there’s a sense of injustice and unfairness—that’s why compensation is so important. That’s also why dissatisfied customers at restaurants want to get their dish for free, or get a free glass of wine, or a free dessert, because that bal…

SCOTUS Seems to Think You Should Be Forced to Pay For Religious Education

By John Stoehr

…exercise clause into a broadly applicable special rights provision. A free ticket for the religious to exempt themselves from federal and state laws—most importantly, public health and anti-discrimination laws. JS: Do these special rights provisions apply equally? The court is on a mission to remake free-exercise law. Not too long ago, it held that religious people and organizations could not claim special exemptions to generally applicable law so…

Pro-Choice Groups Livid Over Passage of Stupak Amendment

By Sarah Posner

…gains. President Obama was elected just one short year ago on a prochoice ticket. If the electorate sees that a woman’s right to choose is not a core value but simply a bargaining chip to be laid on the table when the going gets tough, there will be a price to pay. We call on the Democratic leadership and all of our elected representatives to put forward healthcare reform that can be endorsed by the American people, not just the US bishops. The A…

“The Call” Warns of Antichrist Legislation in California and Beyond

By Sarah Posner

…Palin as his running mate, Engle ramped up his support for the Republican ticket, likening Palin to the biblical Queen Esther who saved her people from destruction. When he was in Washington, I asked Engle whether young evangelicals were looking for the kind of revival he was preaching about, in light of heightened interest in issues beyond abortion and gay marriage. “I don’t mean the old time Pentecostal [revival],” Engle replied, “but real retu…

Everything You Think You Know About the Dark Ages is Wrong

By Nancy Marie Brown

…per tickets. Up to the manuscript room, where I handed the ID card and one ticket to the clerk. She gave me a key to a locker, where I had to leave all my belongings except one pencil (not a pen, with which I could deface a manuscript) and a notebook. Reentering the reading room, I had to display my pencil and notebook to the clerk to get back my ID card and the ultimate prize: a plastic block with a number on it. I was then permitted to sit in a…

Saint Michael… Spied in a Stump, Haunting Larry King

By Anthea Butler

…and over again, dancing in the streets, and even buying expensive airline tickets to Los Angeles, hoping for a long shot lottery ticket that would let them into the inner sanctum of the Staples Center for the memorial service. I’d say that already makes for thousands of devotees—even the Rev. Sharpton, whose dance moves [image left, more here] at the Apollo in honor of St. Michael were more like a Bacchanal than a holy Ghost dance. All of this “w…
