Trump’s Nominee to Fill RBG’s Seat Is Unfit. By Definition.

By Andrew L. Seidel

…use the pussy-grabbing serial liar would naturally be drawn to candidates that reflect his paucity of principle and empathy—that’s certainly true, though Trump isn’t really selecting judges, he’s outsourced that critical role to the ultraconservative Federalist Society. It’s because any nominee willingly wading into this partisan duplicity lacks the character to sit on the high court. Above all, judges must be impartial and must have integrity. No…

A Link to Jewish History, RBG’s Iconic Collars Were a Beacon for the Marginalized

By Jodi Eichler-Levine

…ne powerfully for those of us who have experienced marginalization, had to code switch from setting to setting, or learned to express ourselves through subtle cues beyond formal language. While it’s not a huge surprise that some of Ginsburg’s collars will rest in museums—like holy relics, the objects touched by our heroes often end up behind glass, visited by modern pilgrims—it’s also unusual for such a textile to endure for generations. Fabric an…

What Does Satanism Have to do With QAnon?

By David Frankfurter

…lly” abused and sacrificed beneath a popular Washington D.C. pizza parlor that he drove up to liberate them, armed with an assault rifle. Still today QAnon culture maintains a belief that international elites, including both Hilary Clinton and Rihanna, are operating a massive child-abduction scheme whose goals range from sex-slavery to abuse and sacrifice in the context of Satanic ceremonies. What allows the QAnon Satanism conspiracy to spread thr…

Why We’re Not Prepared to Prosecute White Nationalist Violence

By Sara Kamali

…and national law enforcement agencies require restructuring to do exactly that. Based on what I define as holistic justice, the foundation of an effective national security framework will simultaneously recognize White nationalists as domestic terrorists and excise the multitude of Muslim Americans from this depiction. If the United States of America is to remain protected against all enemies foreign and domestic, the willful colorblindess and com…

New Clashes in Portland Confirm that Christian Nationalism Remains a Clear and Present Danger

By Chrissy Stroop

…December 2019. As I argued here on RD last March, there’s no good reason that churches should be exempted from quarantine requirements, but that hasn’t stopped America’s right-wing Christians from defying legally-mandated public health measures and demanding religious exemptions, including through the American court system. Feucht frames his “Let Us Worship” concerts, for which he regularly fails to secure the proper permits, as a protest against…

Democratic Hopeful Pete Buttigieg Makes Faith 101 Misstep

By Daniel Schultz

…ous left, you have not been paying attention. I wish Joy Behar understood that, but it’s not surprising that she doesn’t. Buttigieg could and should have reminded her of people like William Barber, Jim Wallis, or many of the other well-known lights of the movement. The anti-racism activist Rob Lee was even on The View last year. Obviously, the conversation with Buttigieg was around presidents or presidential candidates. But then why not mention Ba…

Pittsburgh Paradox: A City Haunted by God and Steel

By Ed Simon

…at the meeting of two streams the ‘sacredness’ of the first river add to that of the second one,” or what I describe in my book as being the reality of a place “almost preternaturally charged with a broken beauty, a tinge of the numinous throughout the landscape itself.” There is a certain God-intoxication here. More than that, however, and central to my argument is that Pittsburgh’s archetypal history—a frontier town founded by settler-colonials…

Synod or Sin Oddly: Vatican Encourages Catholics to ‘Walk Together’ as Long as the Hierarchy Leads the Way and Decides the Route

By Mary E. Hunt

…orty-five minutes on the agenda of their November 2021 meeting to discuss what’s promoted as the most life-changing process for the Catholic community worldwide since Vatican II. There is a deep disconnect here between rhetoric and reality. Many bishops, especially the most conservative, are simply ignoring or, it is rumored, dissing the whole thing, perhaps considering it more of Francis’ folly. Others are mounting middling efforts. Still others…

How Do We Break the Cycle of Religious Violence in South Asia?

By Sunita Viswanath

…and my relatives in Bangladesh were killed in revenge. I didn’t even know what Babri Masjid was. All I know is that we paid with our lives.” His recollection hinted at something deeper: It can be uncomfortable to acknowledge that your religious community can be an aggressor in one country and a persecuted minority in another. Unfortunately, most Hindu organizations in the diaspora have ignored this uneasy truth. Rather, many of these groups condem…

‘Manufactured’ Smear Campaign Attempts to Intimidate Church ‘Fasting From Whiteness’— It Didn’t Work

By Frederick Clarkson

…tion has been challenged in the way that a workout can be challenging, so that you know that at the end of it, greater health and strength has come of it. We’ve had more visitors than we have in a long time. The youth of the church have engaged in the anti-racism work with the spirit of this is good, but why aren’t we being bolder? Our intention in this has been to invite people into the life-changing, ancient Christian practice of fasting. Fastin…
