…banning abortion, and he portrayed the Biden administration’s reproductive freedom stance as genocide: His is an administration that is not just pro-abortion. It lives and breathes abortion. It is their religion—they want to take us out. They want to take out our children. The abortion drug states could fight against the abortion drug, but the abortion drug is promoted by the United States Postal Service that is under federal jurisdiction. That is…

At Moms for Liberty Summit, ‘Mama Bears’ Declare Spiritual War on the ‘Radical Left’

By Annika Brockschmidt

…ater and sunscreen. Inside, Moms for Liberty, who claim to be champions of free speech, used this display of their fellow Americans exercising their 1st Amendment rights to paint themselves as victims of the “radical Left” and the “Marxists” who have forced them to endure unjust abuse and vilification (even as they claim that the pushback really is proof that they’re doing the right thing). Yet the mood, amongst all this talk of sacrifice and war,…

By Brynn Tannehill

…ergefell will fall. The decision will be handed down most likely in June of 2024, but almost certainly no later than June 2025. This will cause havoc for LGBT couples.

By Mary E. Hunt

…gs are shrinking before our eyes. The text encourages priests to exercise “freedom and spontaneity” whereas the press release specifies blessings to be just a few seconds, like maybe at drive-by speed! Likewise, the text refers to “Blessings of Couples in Irregular Situations and of Couples of the Same Sex,” though in his late January comments, Pope Francis insists this is really about blessing individuals, not couples. Say what? He’s walking back…

By Diana Butler Bass

…ill. Was Ukraine a test case? Until this vote, a Venn diagram of MAGA, the Freedom Caucus, and congressional evangelical Republicans was essentially a circle. But in the days before the vote, it became obvious that there was a split on this issue. Marjorie Taylor Greene, one of the most vocal and extreme evangelicals in Congress, appeared on Steve Bannon’s show, insisting that Russia was a champion of religious freedom and Ukraine was its enemy: L…

By Mark D. Jordan

…hing the sins of a lost city, some prescriptions in the Israelite holiness code, and the Apostle Paul on the consequences of pagan idolatry. Or so the passages read to me.) Calling out the numbers is not meant to start a conversation about what these biblical passages might mean—or about how different Christian communities have decided to determine the applied meaning of any verse in their version of the Bible. The verses are often cited in church…

…ller, and Infowars, and championed by the right’s favorite pop philosopher Jordan Peterson, libertarian figurehead Ron Paul, and even Brazil’s far-right President Jair Bolsonaro. It has breached the highest halls of power here as well, with Trump reportedly expressing strong approval of a May 2017 opposition research memo, prepared by the “nationalist wing” of his White House, which warned of a conspiracy of “deep state’ actors, globalists, banker…
