…n of angry evangelicalism that threatens democracy and human rights in the United States. I cannot “see into their hearts” to know whether any spark of self-awareness resides there, but if it does, these “good” Christian men have certainly not publicly owned up to even the slightest accountability for their complicity. Doing so would require them to take an uncomfortable look at their own theology. What is it that makes the leadership of an elite…

By Caroline Matas

Being of voting age in an American presidential election year is messy business. This has always been the case. A two-party system often means choosing the lesser of two evils—deciding which of one’s deeply-held beliefs are nonnegotiables and which can be set aside in favor of “good enough.” Such is the dilemma facing many White evangelical women in America, whose usual guiding principles—anti-abortion, pro-“religious freedom,” anti-immigration—a…
