Rick Warren and Homophobia in Africa

By Sarah Posner

…with Rwanda? The Archibishop of Uganda, Henry Luke Orombi, the Archibishop of Nigeria, Rwanda, Kenya..etc all hold similar biblical positions on homosexuality. Our view about sex and marriage is purpose driven in glorifying God. Warren’s spokesperson told me the Warrens are still in contact with Orombi, who also supports the anti-gay law (but, according to Ssempa, not the death penalty provisions) but she didn’t know “the extent of the relationshi…

Pelosi Attacker’s New Age Spirituality and Belief in QAnon is no Contradiction

By Susannah Crockford

…throughout are posts about the myth of the lost continent of Atlantis and contact with aliens, common beliefs in new age spirituality. Posts from 2007, which are still visible, also reference themes in new age spirituality, mostly about the nature of God and how spirituality is different from organized religion. By 2022, the posts had become predominantly occupied with conspiracy theories. A second blog run by a user called David DePape was found…

Religious Freedom is Impossible… Compared to What?

By Austin Dacey

…ng for the resolution to act morally (if that kind of underpinning helps), contact with that which is awesome and indescribable (if awe is something you feel), and much else besides. Each of those goods is, at least, more likely to be salient in religious than in nonreligious contexts. As a thumbnail sketch of what big “R” Religion is all about, this list of goods is admirably clear. But for precisely that reason it begs the question against Sulli…

The Anglican and the Evangelicals: Insights from the Sudanese Genocide

By Frederick Clarkson

…from Kadugli, where the worst of the atrocities occurred, and is in daily contact with members of his congregation. In his prepared statement at the hearing (as in an earlier interview with RD) he emphasized respect for the pluralist culture of the Nubans, in which Muslims and Christians maintain a good relationship. “We all belong to one human family, whatever our national, ethnic or political differences,” he wrote in his prepared testimony. “…

RDGenerations: Youth and Liberal Religion

By Lucia Hulsether

…odel? Conservative megachurches also have structure, money, and one-on-one contact. Many of them push self-esteem. But they steer their people to the right. During one summer when you were at Girls State, I took a road trip out West with your brother, and we drove past Ted Haggard’s megachurch. L: The one that they visit at the end of “Jesus Camp”? M: Yes, and we stopped to check it out. It’s the size of a smallish shopping mall. We saw the worshi…

Daschle Is Gone—But the Stench of Insider Corruption Lingers

By Peter Laarman

…was “getting too big”—that he was rolling in self-importance and had lost contact with the actual lives of High Plains people. I’m very glad Daschle is gone, but let’s not deceive ourselves into thinking the stables have been cleansed. This episode only highlights the layers of built-up horseshit in a town where influence peddling grew by tenfold to a $3 billion industry over the past 15 years. Even straight-arrow Barack Obama still doesn’t get i…

Haiti and the Push for Theological Questions

By Paula M. Cooey

…among colonialists in Europe and the Americas alike. To forestall possible contact with their own slave populations, colonialists imposed embargoes on Haiti, some of which lasted well into the nineteenth century. The very success of the revolution produced a punishment by all surrounding colonies and territories worse and longer-lasting than the US embargo against Cuba. The unilateral and widespread embargo thwarted recovery and development for cl…

By George Mekhail

…t of people before it was deleted. I’ve tried various means to make direct contact with you with no success. I also understand that you do not make yourself available for appointments, per your website. I have gone back and forth on whether or not to publish this letter, until a recent conversation with a friend compelled me to check and see if I could find the full message. It was back! So I watched. But the section posted in the tweet appears to…

Open Letter to Creflo Dollar

By Lerone A. Martin

…er structure was clouded in a questionable history of inappropriate sexual contact with children? Or would you seek to place your family’s treasures, time, and talents elsewhere? Would YOU tell your catholic neighbors to send their children back to the same parish and priest that allowed children to be sexually abused? Would you tell them its only a “wreck?” Or would you tell them to find another church home? Those who left New Birth came to y…

Mike Johnson’s Porn-Monitoring isn’t Just ‘Creepy’ — it’s a Window to the Fascist Desire Driving the White Evangelical Will to Power

By Jessica Johnson

…e to fight alone. If getting started at Covenant Eyes feels like a battle, contact our Member Care Team, and we’ll join you on the battlefield.” The spiritual seeker is also GI Joe, a man ready to fight against porn for God. By priming this sense of embattlement, the micropolitics of fascism in its addictive, fleshy, intimate form, is interconnected to the macropolitics of fascism in its violent, dominionist, spectacular practice.
