By Rob Shryock

…port was released, Monk openly appeared (in possible violation of military code) at the Values Voters Summit for a panel. The Liberty Institute’s Jeff Mateer put his hand on Monk’s shoulder and praised him, saying, “We’ve gotten phone calls from military members who are undergoing discrimination…and with the exception of him, those folks that have called us have all wanted to remain anonymous. Sergeant Monk, to his credit, is willing to stand up.”…

The Sad Saga of a Compromised Rabbi

By Shaul Magid

…eal of trust exists between us. Just as we do not plagiarize, we honor the code of privacy and do not make public that which was meant to remain private. For me, that trust was broken in the midst of this passionate debate in a way that tells me we have crossed a line. Writing a Facebook wall comment in response to a May 3rd debate between Gordis and Peter Beinart at Columbia University, I referred to Rabbi Gordis as a “tribal fascist.” The tribal…

Nike’s Token Equality: New Campaign Masks the Truth About Workers’ Rights

By Gerald J. Beyer

…nt as ever. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=43QTjFCPLtI Nike has failed to promote justice for workers for decades. In 1997 filmmaker Michael Moore lambasted Nike CEO Phil Knight in “The Big One” for allowing young teenage girls to produce Nike sneakers in Indonesian sweatshops. About a decade later social justice educators Jim Keady and Leslie Kretzu travelled to Indonesia to live on Nike’s starvation wages for a month. Their documentary “Behind…

We Would Be Wise to Pay Attention to Trump’s Apocalyptic QAnon Posting Spree

By Thomas Lecaque

…ind him. He holds in his right hand a ghostly “Q+” (according to some, the code name Trump himself uses when he posts on Q message boards) and the text reads “The World Will Soon Understand/Nothing Can Stop What is Coming,” a direct reference to “The Storm.” As I wrote back in 2020: The QAnoners’ apocalypse, unsurprisingly, is one of political partisan violence, culminating in “The Storm,” when all of the so-called “deep state leaders” will be arr…

What This All-Star Christian Movie Gets Wrong About Christianity

By Sarah Morice-Brubaker

…e. I have not been able to find reference to them in the criminal or civil code of Illinois, where the movie is set. I did learn that many EMTs in Chicago are employed by private companies, in which case such an employee would not be violating the establishment clause by proselytizing.) This is the movie’s big theological problem: a firm certainty that if it seems Christian to you, it probably is Christian, and is therefore a good thing in exactly…

The Secret History of Easter

By Joseph Laycock

…c communion wafers are actually “death cookies” that take their shape from Egyptian sun worship. The Dawkins Foundation’s claim about Easter being a survival of the cult of Ishtar was also promoted by Final Trumpet Ministries founder David J. Meyer who also claimed that the architecture of Manhattan is modeled after Stonehenge and is likewise a form of Pagan idolatry hidden in plain sight. What does it mean when New Atheists and far-right evangeli…

Pope Francis, Breeding Bunnies and Ideological Colonization

By Patricia Miller

…es. And for anyone who thinks that it’s a big breakthrough for the pope to promote “responsible parenthood,” here’s Pope Paul VI in Humanae Vitae: Married love, therefore, requires of husband and wife the full awareness of their obligations in the matter of responsible parenthood, which today, rightly enough, is much insisted upon, but which at the same time should be rightly understood. Thus, we do well to consider responsible parenthood in the l…

Why Is Obama Reaching Out to Ravening Wolves?

By Peter Laarman

…o way that can be achieved without “entitlement reform,” which is Peterson code for cutting Social Security. Here lies madness. Here lies spare change you can’t believe in. Here lies a failure of nerve of colossal proportions. The New York Times reported the Obama deficit-reduction plan on the same Sunday front page where it also reported how Japanese consumers remain so traumatized by the devastation of their 1990s “lost decade” that they still r…

Dear President Bush

By Jimmy McCarty

…h Christian faith. You talked loud about giving more funding to religious (code-word Christian) organizations performing social services and backed it up with little real money. (David Kuo opened my eyes to this.) This is just one example of the way you wooed Christians with good rhetoric and failed to fulfill your promises. Using religious faith as a political tool is what history’s villians have done, and I am afraid you may be closer to that th…

‘Manufactured’ Smear Campaign Attempts to Intimidate Church ‘Fasting From Whiteness’— It Didn’t Work

By Frederick Clarkson

…ience, Equality.” Turning Point’s video suggests that the church’s program promotes “disunity” and “segregation.” But here too, there’s no evidence to support the claim, and plenty that refutes it. As Edgerton told the Chicago Sun Times, “You don’t fast from things that are despicable. … You don’t fast from things that are ugly,” he said. “You fast from those things that do tug at your heart.” Edgerton told the paper that although they’re celebrat…
