King David

By Warren Throckmorton

…ording to The Atlantic’s Garance Franke-Ruta. Apparently the next state is South Carolina. In a comment on his Facebook page, Waldron said he would soon be in Columbia and cover the state. Evangelicals in South Carolina will have a tough choice between Perry, who recently hosted a prayer meeting in Houston where over 30,000 evangelicals attended, and Bachmann, who has made her faith a central part of her campaign. The distinction offered by Waldro…

Perry v. Romney Showdown Tonight

By Joanna Brooks

…if Perry gets evangelical Christian conservatives, the Tea Party, and the South—although not without a fight and not by decisive margins? Can Romney still win? Polls from South Carolina this week show he’s only up by 3 points over Romney. (Even in Texas, Perry’s approval ratings are only 45%.) Romney gets GOP elites and establishment, the Northeast, the West, independents (in open primary states), and everyone who has the foresight to worry about…

2011’s Best Books—
Or Just a Great Reading List

By Haroon Moghul

…e was a profoundly influential poet, philosopher, and political thinker in South Asia and the Muslim-majority world, but he is largely unknown outside Muslim conversations. Second caveat: This is not a book that will be easily accessible for those to whom contemporary Islamic thought, or South Asian philosophy, are familiar subjects. Nevertheless, the subject of this work, since Muhammad Iqbal has had a profound impact on contemporary Islam, far o…

Religious Right Elites Still Looking for a Candidate

By Sarah Posner

…Take note: McCain benefitted from the splitting of the evangelical vote in South Carolina, a phenomenon that could work to Romney’s advantage this time around. The fascinating thing about the upcoming Texas meeting is that many of the same players tried playing this game last summer, and came up with Rick Perry. Those meetings, incidentally, led to his big prayer rally The Response, held a week before he announced his candidacy (in South Carolina)…

By Sarah Posner

…t since evangelical anti-Mormonism is thought to be more pronounced in the South. But it did ask whether they believe President Obama is a Christian, and only 14% did, with 45% saying they believe he is a Muslim. These numbers are more pronounced among evangelicals, with only 9% of evangelical likely Republican voters in Alabama believing the president is a Christian. Fifty percent—half of all the voters in the Alabama GOP primary—believe the pres…

“One of Us”: Rick Santorum and the Politics of (Very Big) Family

By Kathryn Joyce

…earlier, Santorum had transformed this rhetoric into policy proposal at a South Carolina Fuddruckers appearance with the Duggars, where he argued that low birth rates and a declining American population (also longstanding concerns among the Quiverfull movement) should be fought by tripling the child tax deduction to encourage larger families. “We need to be a hopeful country that wants more children,” Santorum declared. “We’ve had other countries…

The Role of Faith in the Lives of Abortion Providers

By Sarah Posner

…r clinic escort (or as she describes it, “peacekeeper”) at a clinic on the south side of Chicago, told me this week. “To think that he was murdered inside a church really brought it home to me.” Doctors and other staff at clinics are heroes, she emphasized, “making sure women are at peace with this decision, making sure they know what they are doing, and that everything is safe for them.” A doctor I spoke with this week, who is Catholic and provid…

Will the Religious Side with Workers?

By Peter Laarman

…kplaces and ship the work to the non-union American South or to the Global South, took their predictable devastating toll on private-sector unionism. Surging public sector unionism during this same period saved the American labor movement from complete collapse. But now these public sector unions are also under the gun in a big way. So my question persists: Where were the vast majority of American religious leaders during these decades of attacks…

Muslim Stowaways
on the European
Titanic: “Eurabian” Alarmism 2.0

By Haroon Moghul

…ent a grand narrative of Islamic brutality, there is a Middle Easterner or South Asian who links Iraqi sanctions, Condoleezza Rice’s cruel “birth pangs of a new Middle East,” and ongoing drone strikes to paint a parallel picture of an essentially violent West. The sad fact is, many people are untroubled by violence or extremism, except if it affects them, their interests, or those considered “like” themselves. This explains why it was so hard for…
