‘Hello, Trump Warriors!’ Little-Known Preachers and Rabble Rousers are the Unregulated Id of the Felon’s First Rally

By Jeff Sharlet

…York!” Its crime: the release of the illegal, “this monster,” who went to Georgia and killed “our girl,” Laken Riley. Therefore, New York’s courts have no standing: They dispatch brown-skinned killers (he was released after an arrest for operating a car dangerously with a child) to murder pretty White girls and yet convict a president for, what, scoring with a pretty White girl? Here is the topsy-turvy world of American liberalism: a bad man rewa…

Morehouse Men in their Sunday Best

By Jonathan L. Walton

…institutionalize flawed cultural logic. The goal of higher learning is to promote intellectual flourishing and creativity, not professional provincialism and class-based pretentiousness. The last I checked, dear ol’ Morehouse was better than that. And I am know for a fact that Robert Franklin’s brilliance is far superior to a pedagogical approach worthy of the 19th century Freedman’s Bureau. As the hymn-writer penned, “we’ve come too far. Oh, can…

Freshwater Becomes Martyr in 3…2…1…

By Lauri Lebo

…orical science is based on correct knowledge of the past. The Bible provides this knowledge as it is the history book of the universe; any ideas about the past apart from the Bible are simply based on the opinion of man who was not there. Georgia Purdom, the writer of the piece, concludes by demonstrating AIG’s contempt for the First Amendment and religious freedom: But I encourage you to pray for Mr. Freshwater and others like him who truly are m…

Is Anti-LGBT Legislation the New Southern Strategy?

By Darren E. Sherkat

…we don’t really know what that means in terms of his support of “religious freedom” measures or other discriminatory laws. Anti-gay bigotry seems to be the new “Southern Strategy” for the Republican Party, and they are poised to continue to include opposition to same-sex marriage in their Party Platform—as they have since 1992. The easy passage of discriminatory legislation in Southern states, and elsewhere, is strongly connected to religious comm…

Government Prayer Isn’t Inclusive—Let’s Not Pretend Otherwise

By Andrew L. Seidel

…divided along religious lines in the wake of the “Jesus”-laden prayer. The Georgia House suffered through a sermon and then a prayer, both of which condemned all non-Christians—all non-Baptists, really—to an eternity of torture and torment. Surely not the best way to work across the aisle or to foster compromise. Just like Pennsylvania, a preacher told the Virginia House of Delegates that “every knee will bow and every tongue will confess that Jes…

Where in the World is Sarah Palin?

By Louis A. Ruprecht

I have been in the lovely north Georgia mountains for the past two days; it’s the loveliest time of year here. This is where the Appalachian Trail begins, the long cascade of Blue Ridge) Mountains nearby at the peak of their fall color, all the brilliant leaves still on the trees. It is the time for the big fall festivals as well—Apple Festival in Ellijay, Octoberfest in Helen, Sorghum and other festivals scattered about. The people, poorer the f…

Religious Activism Behind Anti-Abortion Movement Outreach to Blacks

By Sarah Posner

…nd the religious right. The Times piece describes, among other things, the Georgia billboard campaign claiming that “black children are an endangered species,” but doesn’t address the data, dissected earlier in the week by Shani O. Hilton at The American Prospect, that black women have a disproportionately higher abortion rate because they have disproportionately lower access to reproductive health care. A key claim of the “black genocide” claim…

A Third Reconstruction? Rev. William Barber Lifts the Trumpet

By Peter Laarman

…finition of “poor.” But if Harriet Tubman could lead hundreds of slaves to freedom with nothing but the North Star, moss on the trees, a pistol strapped to her leg and faith in her heart (despite lack of resources and epilepsy), then today we ought to be able to use the Internet, Twitter, Facebook, cell phones and our growing network of churches to educate the new Southern Electorate—black, white, Latino, Asian, gay, straight, labor, Christian, Je…

Not All Choice is Free

By Louis A. Ruprecht

…the state to insist on its way, and for them to gain their administrative freedom, would be to abrogate that curious tax exemption for an institution as wealthy as the Catholic Church in a time of real fiscal crisis. But clearly, this would lend itself to the very Big Brother vision of the federal government that created this controversy in the first place. Instead, President Obama, ever the patient compromiser, attempted to create a new distinct…

The Tebow Superbowl Ad: Offense, Defense, or Interference?

By Louis A. Ruprecht

…trage it did because it was perceived to be an act of sacrilege within the free-floating social sacred that is the Super Bowl. So long as the religion is non-sectarian, non-denominational, devoid of anything other than marketing content (and not too nude) it is free to be aired at the Super Bowl. That is one reason why the American viewing public seems prepared to stomach Super Bowl advertisements that offend any number of other ethical sensibilit…
