So You Think You Can Dance, Or At Least Lead A Populist Moral Movement

By Daniel Schultz

…its citizens, and not at all interested in questions of justice. It was easier to build alternative systems to care for the poor and give them a voice, because those structures simply didn’t exist. Today, we live in a much more complex economic system than the agrarian subsistence farming of Jesus’ world, and we’re much more involved in government social supports, or the lack thereof. And guess who controls the government? Right: the Republicans…

The Only Religion Question Reporters and Debate Moderators Should Ask Presidential Candidates (Kim Davis Edition)

By Sarah Posner

…for someone who is employed by a court), not that her religious liberty is under siege. Huckabee has set the standard, so let’s get the the heart of what the candidates mean when they support Kim Davis. It’s a perfect debate question because it’s not a religious litmus test such as quizzing candidates on favorite Bible verses, or asking them to describe what their faith has meant to them in their own lives. It’s also a question that cuts to the ch…

Is Ken Starr ‘Pulling a Clinton’ on Jewish Studies Professor Marc Ellis?

By Kiera Feldman

…s this allegation Ellis has recently filed an Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) complaint against the Baylor administration alleging anti-Semitism. In his writings, Ellis has long put forward a two-pronged argument: anti-Semitism still exists, and it is not anti-Semitic to speak out against what he terms “Constantinian Judaism”—Jews in America, Israel, and elsewhere who are “intent on enabling empire [and] collud[ing] with other power…

A Neoconservative Jesus, Certified Kosher

By Ira Chernus

…hem, in all seriousness, that Jesus is like a huge inkblot in a Rohrschach test. Everyone sees what they want to see. what any New Testament scholar claims to see tells us nothing for sure about the factual reality of Jesus. But it tells a lot about even the greatest scholar’s own presuppositions, worldview, values, and beliefs. Kal v’homer, as they say in Hebrew (“how much more so, then”): an Orthodox rabbi with few scholarly credentials and limi…

Paul Ryan: I Reject Ayn Rand, She’s an Atheist!

By Sarah Posner

…ty of individualism, and that, to me, is what matters most.” Ryan has been under fire for these comments because, charge groups like the American Values Network, Rand was an atheist who rejected Christianity and organized religion. (I’ve previously written about how rejecting Rand because she was an atheist is criticizing her for the wrong reasons.) This week, in advance of today’s Georgetown speech, Ryan received a letter from 90 professors, led…

In Convention Event Democrats Embrace the ‘Nones’

By Chrissy Stroop

…of Florida, who, focusing in particular on the use of taxpayer dollars to fund fundamentalist schools that teach “alternative facts,” called his state “a case study in what can go wrong [when the Christian Right is in power].” The prominence of red state activists and politicians in the program comports both with the sense that they’re on the “front lines” of the Christian Right’s culture warring, a point stressed by both Salman and Smith, and wit…

Death Without Religion

By Gordon Haber

…stent vegetative state, minimally conscious state, locked-in syndrome, and coma” (thus “the undead” of the book’s title). This is frightening stuff, and it should make us reconsider the trust that we put in the medical community—especially if doctors are harvesting organs from living people. But Teresi’s arguments can be remarkably weak. He reminds us frequently that he is a “science writer,” and yet his evidence is largely anecdotal, a collection…

4 Life Lessons from Episode Two of Preachers’ Daughters

By Sarah Morice-Brubaker

…e teen mom of a baby daughter named Eden, isn’t happy with the results of Eden’s paternity test. In a scene I found rather touching, she tells her parents, Mark and Cheryl, “I got the results of the paternity test and I don’t really understand them.” It’s likely that Olivia’s just floundering here, because the results aren’t ambiguous: they say that there’s a 99.99 percent probability that Eden’s father isn’t the fellow she was expecting or hoping…

Evangelical Pastor Argues for Full LGBT Inclusion: “I Think It’s Inevitable”

By Candace Chellew-Hodge

…ink there will be a sector of evangelicalism that will go past mainline protestant denominations, which have more institutional restraints. The more autonomous congregations will outpace them in acceptance. That’s going to be the big surprise. How soon do you predict that? If there are congregations like ours that can demonstrate that you can survive financially, then I think there will immediately be a small, steady trickle of congregations movin…

Religious Freedom Battle Is Far From Over: Here’s What to Look for in 2019

By Patrick Hornbeck

…down just three weeks earlier. Whereas in that case, “a state civil rights commission was found to have acted without ‘the neutrality that the Free Exercise Clause requires’, the government actors in this case will not be held accountable for breaching the First Amendment’s guarantee of religious neutrality and tolerance.” In other cases, too, arguments about religious freedom are coming from unlikely quarters. In Arizona, a university teacher arr…
