Satan, Contributor to Teen Vogue‘s New “Sodomy” Section?

By Mark D. Jordan

…be penile-vaginal intercourse, male on top, for the sake of procreation. Whatever Thomas meant, churches that cited him used “sodomy” to make accusations that were both vague and damaging—and often more damaging because so vague. Would the acts described by Teen Vogue count as “sodomy”? For some Christian theologians yes, for others no. Of course, the whole point of using the term is to avoid specifying sexual acts. Whether now or in the Middle A…

By Mary E. Hunt

…orty-five minutes on the agenda of their November 2021 meeting to discuss what’s promoted as the most life-changing process for the Catholic community worldwide since Vatican II. There is a deep disconnect here between rhetoric and reality. Many bishops, especially the most conservative, are simply ignoring or, it is rumored, dissing the whole thing, perhaps considering it more of Francis’ folly. Others are mounting middling efforts. Still others…

Why White Women Are Leading Defenders of Kavanaugh

By Sikivu Hutchinson

…and benefit from a culture of normalized sexual violence, it’s a message that you are being watched and held accountable. And to all the white women who have jumped on the character witness bandwagon to valorize Kavanaugh it should be a reminder that simply being assigned female at birth doesn’t exempt you from complicity with patriarchy and the silencing of sexual violence survivors. While the death threats Kavanaugh accuser Christine Blasey For…

Gay Chutzpah: An LGBT Synagogue Thrives

By Susan Henking

…me that Jewish homosexuals today are far less emotionally stressed by the code that ruled out the possibility of being both Jewish and gay. Even among some Orthodox Jewish communities the issue is being addressed—though not yet resolved. I love your notion of “layered ethnographies”—in which you add to prior ethnographies rather than amend them. So, the ethnography of CBST includes the first and second editions of your book as well as subsequent…

By Kathryn Joyce

…proof jacket, lying on his office couch, and not being fazed. The threats that made that body-armor necessary are already returning in the few months that Burkhart has owned the clinic. The news of the building’s sale from the Tiller family (who have maintained their privacy since the murder) to Burkhart broke last September, far earlier than she had planned, leading her to believe that anti-abortion groups had positioned someone in state offices…

Brits Get A Dose of Christian Nation Politicking

By Sarah Posner

…trality, or the role that faith can play in helping people to have a moral code.” That accusation is abruptly followed by the disclaimer that “[o]f course, faith is neither necessary nor sufficient for morality.” Cameron also lays bare his quintessentially 21st century religiosity, proclaiming that “I am a member of the Church of England, and, I suspect, a rather classic one: not that regular in attendance, and a bit vague on some of the more diff…

2017 Around the World: Progress and Persecution For LGBT People

By Peter Montgomery

…“Zionist”. These examples are just the tip of the iceberg of a discourse that promotes and justifies hate and violence against LGBT people in the family, society, and in educational, judicial and law enforcement institutions. For example, Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, in one of his many remarks about homosexuality has said “If we were to presume that human desires legitimize hamjensbazi[faggotry] then someone could also have the desire to c…

By Peter Montgomery

…stroy it, and therefore also from the national and international policies that impede the promotion of positive values.” On this marching route there has been complete consensus. Even the only bishop of black Africa who in recent months had spoken out in favor of “openness” to divorce, Gabriel Charles Palmer-Buckle of Accra, elected by the bishops of Ghana as their delegate to the synod, was found to be in agreement with all present in the defense…

Op-Ed: Bishops vs. Catholic Politicians

By Daniel C. Maguire

…ed States bishops issued instructions to “the faithful.” The bishops said that they thought that war to be just…a judgment very few support today. However, they said that the war was a complicated matter and they urged Catholic to pray and consult and decide for themselves. That’s the kind of good sense and humility the bishops need today. They should stop persecuting Catholic legislators and pontificating on issues where they have no privileged e…

What Does Satanism Have to do With QAnon?

By David Frankfurter

…lly” abused and sacrificed beneath a popular Washington D.C. pizza parlor that he drove up to liberate them, armed with an assault rifle. Still today QAnon culture maintains a belief that international elites, including both Hilary Clinton and Rihanna, are operating a massive child-abduction scheme whose goals range from sex-slavery to abuse and sacrifice in the context of Satanic ceremonies. What allows the QAnon Satanism conspiracy to spread thr…
