…ry’s nephews and nieces have served missions in Ireland, Italy, Argentina, Ethiopia, and Thailand. You can’t just leave Mormonism behind when you have that kind of connection. I’m a writer and find that most of my stories still deal with Mormons. (My book, The Abominable Gayman, about a gay Mormon missionary in Italy, was named to Kirkus Reviews’ Best of 2011, and my latest, Marginal Mormons, just received a starred review from Kirkus.) I also mar…

…verse in Psalms that talks about a great leader coming out of Abyssinia or Ethiopia. There was a sense in which Jesus’s return was the coming of a black liberator.

Then, 10,000 years ago, the earth, which has an erratic orbit around the sun, took a happy turn: we entered the comparatively gentle Holocene Epoch. Agriculture started and fertility boomed. No problem at first. There was always land to move to as we over-reproduced. And so it was that the most dangerous species ever to evolve spread over the planet. As the good t…

Schneider writes that “there’s no better time than adolescence to fall in love with philosophy, or to develop an intellectual dependency on it,” for he comprehends that the most erudite of theological arguments have felt belief at their center. It sounds abstract, but Schneider is an engaging explainer of some incredibly complicated ideas, moving with ease between Alvin Plantinga’s disputations on theodicy…

…risk their lives for others don’t live in a world where doing so is a bad bet in terms of their welfare. But to make it anything but a bad bet, we need God. Now you might think this argument and the variations offered since Kant’s time are failures. Many do. But if they fail, it has nothing to do with advances in science. And if they succeed, it isn’t because science has fallen short. In short, moral arguments for God’s existence typically aren’t…
