Sacred Geography: A Queer Latino Theological Response to Orlando

…“terrorism.”) Somehow the story is more easily told when we don’t have to talk about race—because no one knows how to talk about when people of color attack other people of color. But when reports refer to an attack on a “gay nightclub,” the truth about the violence that happens to queer and trans people of color is avoided. When thinking about the theological significance of these spaces for queer people, to not talk about racial experience is t…

Spiritual Envy: Michael Krasny’s Agnostic Quest

…u think that’s possible? Why not? It makes sense. I think Isherwood always talked a lot of sense. You have genius with music, art, sports. Why not genius with religion? At one point I found myself talking about the fact that three men who have been tremendously admired in the 20th century would not have been what they were without their faith: Gandhi, MLK, Malcolm X—and they were all in a different way a kind of religious genius. I’m sure people a…

Win For ‘Natural Family’ Crowd at UN Human Rights Council…

…riuki said. Kariuki welcomes the president’s visit but says leave “the gay talk” in America. “Let him talk about development; let him talk about cooperation; let him talk about the long-time relationship Kenya has had with America,” he said. “But about our beliefs and culture– keep off!” Obama has used previous trips to Africa to urge governments to respect gay rights. Kariuki said the open letter is a warning to the president. “The family is the…

Talking Back to a Mormon Elder: Religion versus Reality

…t we do. None of this seems to matter. So I drop it. I try to focus on the talk. I can’t help trying to understand why Elder Packer is giving this talk. I’m a professor of strategic management, so I spend a good part of most work days talking about the why large companies do the things they do. I try to make two columns in my head—one for costs, one for benefits. The costs. I think of young boys struggling with their emergent sexuality. I remember…

Meeting on the Bridge: Fr. James Martin’s Ministry to LGBT Catholics Becomes a Book

…n the book that you have an “informal ministry” to LGBT Catholics. Can you talk about how that came about and what that looks like—because with this book coming out, that might become less informal? James Martin: It’s similar to the kinds of ministries that other Jesuits, priests, members of religious orders and lay pastoral associates have in parishes. For example, some people who come to me for spiritual direction might be LGBT. Some people who…

Mitt, Moochers, and Mormonism’s “Other” Legacy

…th great cause to repent… For behold, are we not all beggars? If End Times talk is closed and divisive, King Benjamin talk is open and charitable, releasing some of the puffed up air of the “elect.” Kindness; compassion, service; they are so much the currency of religion that it’s sometimes easy to overlook them, but Mormons spend more of their time thinking about how to help the neighbors than they do worrying about communist teachers in the scho…

Trans Talmud: Could a 1,500-Year-Old Book Have Any Relevance to The Struggle for Trans Equality and Liberation?

…the text that you actually do read in that way? I get this question when I talk about my work in progressive Jewish spaces. Why did the rabbis talk about these categories? The answer they want me to give is that the rabbis talk about these categories because we existed: trans people existed, intersex people existed. And I’m totally sympathetic to that impulse and to any activist who wants to go to their Jewish community and demand they quit their…

Perry’s God-Talk at Liberty University

…scus moment stripped dry of spirit-filled moments of lightening and tongue-talking. Clinical, if you will. And notably free of policy. Purely confessional. But still, aw, shucks, how can he be expected to know much vocabulary, even about this esteemed Christian school? As he prepared for Wednesday’s visit, Perry said, “I got my Webster’s out and I just looked up the word ‘convocation’ to make sure I knew what I was walking into here.” Jerry Falwel…

Before We Scold DeSean Jackson and Others For Anti-Semitism We Need To Talk About ‘Chosenness’

…al enough in his analysis of racial oppression I think he anticipated such talk through his understanding of the asymmetry between black suffering in the United States and historic Jewish suffering when he offered the following thoughts: The Jew’s suffering is recognized as part of the moral history of the world and the Jew is recognized as a contributor to the world’s history: this is not true for the blacks. Jewish history, whether or not one ca…
