Masculinity and Mass Violence: When Will We Acknowledge the Smoking Gendered Pronoun Hiding in Plain Sight?

By Elizabeth Drescher

On July 20, just after James Holmes wounded 58 and killed 12 people at the opening of the latest Batman film at an Aurora, Colorado movie theater, The Telegraph published a “history of mass shootings in the U.S. since Columbine”—a list of nearly 30 shooting sprees with lethal results. Ne’er-do-wells who merely wounded didn’t make the cut. Thus, not included on the list was a shooting spree in an Alabama bar with a multiple arson warm-up just two…

Pussy Riot Members Sentenced to 2 Years for Offending Russian Orthodox Church

By The Editors

This afternoon three of the women behind Russian punk rock collective Pussy Riot were sentenced to two years in prison for “hooliganism motivated by religious hatred,” according to a Reuters report, which includes these words from Judge Marina Syrova as she read the verdict: “The girls’ actions were sacrilegious, blasphemous and broke the church’s rules.” Of course, blasphemy has frequently been equated with hatred of religion against those who’v…

Atheists Ignore Islamophobia at their Peril

By Chris Stedman

When I first heard that a white supremacist opened fire on a Sikh gurdwara in Oak Creek, Wisconsin a few weeks ago, I froze. My stomach lurched and my thoughts turned to the friends I’d made in the Sikh community through my work as an atheist and interfaith activist. In the wake of the horror I reached out to friends directly and logged on to Twitter to express my shock, outrage, disgust, and sadness—as a Millennial, I suppose you could say this…

Christian Media Battle Over Controversial Figure

By Jonathan D. Fitzgerald

In the relatively calm seas of the Christian media, a storm has erupted between Christianity Today, arguably the mouthpiece of contemporary American evangelicalism, and the Christian Post, a smaller competitor. At the center of the storm is David Jang, a popular preacher in East Asia but a relatively unknown figure in the United States, who has ties to the late Rev. Moon’s Unification Church and, according to sources in a recent Christianity Toda…

Drop that Candy Bar, Pagan!

By Peter Montgomery

Pat Robertson isn’t the only evangelical leader who frets about all the kids dressing up in satanic garb for Halloween, or as he calls it, the “festival of the Devil.” Mission America’s Linda Harvey recently argued that the holiday’s satanic origins explain its appeal to “the LGBT world.” Here are a few options religious right leaders would like you to consider. Jesusween. The folks at www.Jesusween.com are hoping to turn Halloween into a “Christ…

Prosperity Gospel and Foreclosure

By Sarah Posner

A headline caught my eye this morning: “Indiana’s Largest Megachurch Faces New Foreclosure Proceedings.” It made me think of Steve Munsey, an Indiana prosperity preacher I watched in a Decatur, Georgia television studio in 2007, pleading for audience members and viewers to give their money to the Trinity Broadcasting Network. As it turns out, the story is about Munsey’s church, Family Christian Center, which claims to have a weekly attendance of…

Catholic Healthcare Is Not the Enemy

By Frances Kissling

When it comes to abortion politics—and now contraceptive politics—each side has its favorite demon. Whether it’s the Planned Parenthood Federation of America or the Catholic hierarchy—and increasingly the Catholic health care system—advocates do their best to make the other look as bad as possible, interpreting all events through a glass darkly. (In both cases, curiously, the two ‘demons’ are actually very popular; Planned Parenthood admired as a…

Global LGBT Recap: Promise and Peril in the New Year

By Peter Montgomery

The new year dawns with more LGBT people than ever before living in states and countries that recognize marriage equality. But, thanks to the Supreme Court in India, this year also begins with more LGBT people living in countries that declare them and their relationships to be illegal than at the same time last year. The conservative Catholic Family & Human Rights Institution (C-FAM) is celebrating resistance to LGBT equality and reproductive ch…

LDS Church Asserts Trademark of “Mormon”

By Holly Welker

Question: has the word “Mormon” been copyrighted or trademarked in this country? If so, when? And who therefore holds the rights? I’ll be surprised if it’s the LDS church, since Mormon is not and never has been its official name. For a long time, in fact, the church tried to disavow it. Yet now, asserting that “Mormon” is a brand, lawyers for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints have been arguing that Mormon Match, an LDS dating websit…

Facebook’s “No Religion” Policy Hoax

By Gwynne Watkins

This story was widely debunked weeks ago, and yet it persists. Hovering at #2 on the Snopes.com “Hot 100” list of the most-circulated hoaxes, this one takes the form of a Facebook post by CEO Mark Zuckerberg (and, ahem, spells his name incorrectly). Seen it on your feed lately? It states that Facebook is instituting a “No Religion” policy, whereby “anyone spreading religious beliefs” will have their account shut down and be subject to “investigat…
