…ligion, Ben Gurion understood that Christian support for Israel—especially American Christian support—was deeply religious in nature. And while he could spar with Israel’s rabbinical authorities, many of whom he had appointed during his long tenure as prime minister, he couldn’t afford to alienate American religious leaders.

By Chrissy Stroop

…re raised in it traumatized. And yet, unfortunately, the fact that much of American Christianity is harmful doesn’t stop Scientific American from echoing Christianity Today by claiming that a sharp increase in internet searches for “prayer” during a pandemic somehow indicates that religion is the cure for what ails us.
