And now, through attacks, propaganda, violence, and chaos [referring to the rise in antisemitism since October 7], the golem is ris…

Pope Benedict’s 2006 Islamophobia Controversy Wasn’t an Isolated Incident — Islamophobia is an Integral Part of His Theological Legacy

By Wendy Mallette

…believes that Europe’s contemporary state of crisis arose from the loss of Western Christian spirituality. This crisis emerged, in part, from Europe’s valorization of “multiculturalism” that’s led to a “pathological” form of “self-hatred” and “a flight from one’s own heritage.” Throughout Benedict’s narrative, from the Holy Roman Empire through the Crusades and contemporary Europe, Islam represents Europe’s threatening, external other.

By Bradley Onishi

…he explains his intended reader. “I am male, and am rooted ancestrally in Western Europe, and am speaking largely to a Western European male audience.” His emphasis on a common volkgeist made up of people of European descent echoes another social theorist whose life and work shaped the 20th century: “What makes a people or, to be more correct, a race is not language, but blood.” Hitler’s emphasis on the German volk and their ties to the homeland…

Putin Theo-Propaganda Minister Kirill Invokes 600 Years of History to Lay Claim to Ukraine — Here’s What it Means

By Katherine Kelaidis

…common in the Orthodox Christian world, even beyond Russia. Unfortunately, Western media have all but ignored this element of Russian propaganda, in no small part because the history itself is so foreign to its audience.

Despite all of the hand-wringing about Muslim women’s oppression, Islamic legal perspectives on abortion have historically been quite diverse and nuanced—a fact obscured by Western oversimplifications of “shari`a,” and assumptions about Muslim male chauvinism. Muslim jurists…

By Katherine Kelaidis

…odox nations and people that are looking to modernize, and, ultimately, to Westernize. Americans, particularly Protestant ones, often scoff at the succession of Romes that still capture the imagination of Eastern Christians, and even some particular types of Western Christians. But American white evangelicals and other parts of the Christian Right aren’t far off from holding these same ideas about America, even if they don’t tend to identify it as…

How Evangelicalism’s Twin Seeds of Biblical Literalism and Constitutional Originalism Spelled the End of Roe

By Austin Lee Steelman

…. In books, speeches, and documentary series, he ranged over the course of Western history, dealing with philosophy, art, and theology. In style, Schaeffer appeared a counter-cultural alternative to the stuffy anti-intellectualism of other evangelical leaders. But in substance, Schaeffer offered the fundamentalist biblicism of his theological mentor. Western civilization, Schaeffer proclaimed, was in decline after it abandoned the notion of absolu…
