By Christopher Marchsteiner

…oung people meeting in casual settings for prayer groups, and mosque doors opening to non-Muslims. Meanwhile, in an attempt to curb religious extremism, the Islamic Preaching Bill in Nigeria would criminalize “insulting or inciting contempt of any religious belief which causes a breach of the peace.” Saudi cleric Sheikh Ahmed al-Ghamdi challenged the notion that men and women should not mix in public places, sparking a controversy that led another…

Vatican Pitbulls Make Cardinal

By Mary E. Hunt

…. This latest crop includes more Italian cardinals than those from developing countries even though the so-called “Third World” is where Catholicism is growing. Things change slowly if at all in Rome. But the not-so-coincidental similarities in the cardinals’ respective paths to the red hats, eventually to the conclave, and perhaps even to the papacy itself, make for a cautionary tale well worth the listen….

‘Purity’ Guru Joshua Harris May Have Left Evangelicalism But He’s Still a Member of the Church of Patriarchy

By Sara Williams

…epentance to many of his critics, as Slate’s Ruth Graham and many others attest. These feelings point to a recognition that “apology” doesn’t amount to “repentance:” the active and constant turning from sin, which in this case amounts to the patriarchal logics that caused the harm. Though Harris may have shed his evangelical institutional affiliation, he is still an active member of the Church of Patriarchy. I do not write such words lightly, so l…

By Elizabeth Drescher

…can inspire people to act from their hearts,” she said. Drawing upon the research-based, secularized Eastern-spirituality-influenced “courageous leadership” approach of her firm, Deterline provided a HHDL-esque summary of the “false contradiction between compassion and commerce” that might have slaked the desire McShane and others in the audience had for deeper insight from the holy man himself. “Capitalism offers a very backwards way of looking a…

Should Biden Reach Out to White Evangelicals?

By John Stoehr

…ing by the Public Research Religion Institute showing Donald Trump with sky-high approval among WEPs in March, at the beginning of the Covid-19 pandemic, but a 10-point drop a month later. Cue predictions of doom. The president’s approval was sky-high across all demographics in March, because he was at the time enjoying what’s called, among demographers, the “rally around the flag” effort. As the country faced an emergency, many people who would n…

Why David Brooks Doesn’t Get the Outrage Over AIG

By Louis A. Ruprecht

…a body that lives on a vast circulating flow of cash, and it is not a super-computer either. It is a complex and increasingly integrated human system that only works when there are clear rules, and clear accountability structures with which the rules may be enforced, offenders punished and wrongs redressed. This is what Brooks’s analytic categories seem to miss, and one senses, why he continues to write off populist rage as misguided, or irrelevan…

Obama’s Supposed “Religion Dilemma” and American Exceptionalism

By Sarah Posner

…pick — a Muslim, Marxist, socialist, communist, abortion-loving, homosexual-agenda-embracing fake Christian, and really have no idea what Obama’s actual religious beliefs are. The PRRI report notes (emphasis in original): There is a critical difference between Americans who say Obama’s religious beliefs are very different and those who say they are only somewhat different. Among those who say his religious beliefs are only somewhat different, a ma…

By Daniel Schultz

…ontext. Only about one-quarter of all Americans are worried about the US becoming a majority-minority nation, while about half are unhappy when they run across immigrants who don’t speak English. Trump voters are notably higher on both scales: 34% worry about whites losing their majority, and 77% are fussed about non-English speakers. That last one is about ten points higher than other Republicans and 40 points more than Democrats. The same patter…

Could This Supreme Court Undo Marriage Equality?

By Andrew L. Seidel

…o get out and vote; abused its shadow docket to allow churches to defy life-saving anti-pandemic measures and to effectively overturn Roe v. Wade; and rubber-stamped discrimination against LGBTQ people in the name of the biblical god—twice. Dumping a nightmare of administrative burdens onto LGBTQ people while robbing them of their equality may actually entice some of Trump’s justices. After all, the cruelty is the point. I want to be wrong about a…

Religion Round-Up: What’s Going on in Religion Around the World

By Diane Winston

…oint, as one of China’s ethnic minorities, Muslims are not bound to the one-child per family policy.) Notwithstanding the fervid prayers of some Olympic contestants, religion probably won’t be a major story during the Summer Games. But the Pew Forum’s findings are worth remembering: A growing number of urban, educated, 20-something Chinese men and women are increasingly interested in the topic. More on religion: a story last week from the Columbus…
