‘Hello, Trump Warriors!’ Little-Known Preachers and Rabble Rousers are the Unregulated Id of the Felon’s First Rally

By Jeff Sharlet

…s like Slenderman undercover. “It’ll break out in violence,” he says matter-of-factly, as if bloodshed were just tomorrow’s weather. Chris, in a bucket hat. But one of the first speakers, “television personality” Wayne Allyn Root, a Jewish convert to evangelicalism who hosts a show on Mike “My Pillow” Lindell’s network, disagrees. When he opened a Trump rally in 2018, he claimed that the White supremacist convicted of murdering protester Heather H…

Matisyahu Shaves His Beard

By Jay Michaelson

…s with the Crystal Method but davens three times a day. Of course, for dyed-in-the-wool Orthodox Jews, Matisyahu was never as authentic as he may have seemed to outsiders. For one thing, he was a baal tshuvah, someone who takes on religious practice but was not raised Orthodox. Matisyahu’s latest decision reinforces the nasty stereotypes that “frum from birth” people have long held about newly religious ones. Second, Matisyahu’s brand of Hasidism…

Would Gandhi Disband Occupy?

By Ira Chernus

…ts With Truth. He believed firmly that truth can be found only through the open-minded attitude of experimentation—which means that truth, insofar as any human can grasp it, is inherently fluid. Today’s fixed set of demands may easily seem like tomorrow’s folly. Gandhi’s program was especially vague in the earliest years of his work, in South Africa. To demand a detailed list of specifics from today’s Occupiers would be like making the same demand…

Even Richard Dawkins is Right Sometimes

By Paul Wallace

…training,” he writes. This is true but it misses the point. The open-access-to-science cliché, usually trundled out by those who wish to contrast the transparency of science with the supposed obfuscation of religion, carries some truth. Science actually is transparent in a way that religion is not. That’s because, in science land, there is nothing but to follow the evidence. It’s out on the table, after all, able and willing to be poked and prodde…

Is “Weak Leadership” to Blame for Catholic Trump Support?

By Patricia Miller

…at inevitably leads to the bishops’ agenda being artificially trimmed to accommodate the competition between the two major parties that the country happens to feature at that particular (fleeting) moment. Unfortunately, this is very much what has happened with the U.S. bishops’ conference over the past eighteen or so years, as it helped drive a significant portion of white Catholics toward the GOP, where their religious and political identities be…

A Pair of Ex-Gay Leaders Make About Face

By Candace Chellew-Hodge

…ssue of bullying and suicide, especially where kids are concerned, to a non-polarized, non-politicized and non-divisive issue.” What would make these sympathetic overtures really ring true, however, would be to see Smid and Chambers put their weight behind the movement to fully include LGBT people in the church—something they’re unlikely to do anytime soon. For example, a group of more than 900 clergy and laypeople in the Methodist church in New Y…

Zeroes and Sums: Is It Wrong to Praise Paul’s Positions?

By Peter Laarman

…idential nomination. Odd man, because Paul manages to remain his own, oddly-compounded self. No flip-flopping there; what you see with old Ron is pretty much what you get. But there is some rising degree of alarm in the land because Paul’s record is composed of an admixture of good, bad, and ugly. The ugly being mainly his failure to disavow the support of blatant racists or to quickly and sufficiently distance himself from dreadful comments made…

Evidence of Mass Graves in Sudan?

By Frederick Clarkson

…ndudu and other Anglican Church leaders had been among the targets of house-to-house searches by armed men looking for ethnic Nubans—especially leaders. What Andudu called Khartoum’s “final solution” has been cast by others as persecution of Christians, but in fact the campaign to exterminate the Nuba has spared no one. Reports of systematic killings of Nubans in Kadugli have been getting out to church and human rights groups and Western news medi…

‘Leaving is Never So Simple as Stepping Over a Line’ — A Conversation with the Author of ‘Rift,’ a New Memoir on Christian Patriarchy

By Audrey Clare Farley

…s of her upbringing, including myths about rape and contraception, the stay-at-home daughter movement, how she managed to heal, and more. This interview has been edited for length and clarity. One of the book’s persistent themes is that of a voyeuristic father-God who surveys not only your neckline, but also your every thought. You write, “Dad was always watching, which meant God was always watching.” What effect do you think this voyeuristic conc…

A Matter of the Heart: Talking to Gay Christian Rocker Jennifer Knapp

By Kristin Rawls

…of the conversations and experiences that could come of it. I’m a relative newcomer to this public discourse. It’s nice when other artists say, “Listen, just doing your art is important.” I’ve had these positive conversations with people in the Christian music industry as well. I have a long history with so many of them, and it’s been nice to reconnect. I’ve received a lot of encouragement from people who just really understand the importance of…
