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…

Unreleased Religious Freedom Manifesto Isn’t the Culture War Compromise It Hopes to Be

By Frederick Clarkson

…en indirect participation in providing abortion services. In addition to enlisting the Founding Fathers, as noted earlier, the Charter attempts to enlist long deceased religious leaders of the Civil Rights Movement in support of their redefining of religious freedom: “… acts of conscience in the public life of our nation have energized and guided many of our most important movements for social justice, preeminently the work of Rev. Dr. Martin Luth…

Larycia Hawkins’ Actual Violation of Wheaton’s Statement of Faith Hints at the School’s True Intentions

By John Gleim

…hare a common humanity—something that not even truly hard-boiled fundamentalist theologians could easily deny. In her second sentence, however, Dr. Hawkins employs a bit of unique argumentation—specifically, by making reference to a cave system in South Africa called Sterkfontein. The Sterkfontein cave network is part of an archaeological dig site declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1999. Since the 1930s many early hominid fossils have bee…

Breaking Up With Marilynne Robinson Over Her Refusal to Acknowledge the Dark Side of Puritanism

By Peter Laarman

…the general pattern of freedom for us/unfreedom for others is of apartheid South Africa, where a notoriously brutal regime that, just like New England, saw itself as a “New Israel,” survived until 1990. This is the darker side of Calvinism that Robinson has seldom if ever discussed, and it would really help her case for Calvinist “liberality” if she could also acknowledge the shadow side. For example, she might consider asking the Irish what they…

How 95% of Jewish Israelis Support a ‘Plausible’ Genocide

By Zachary Foster

…ake “all measures in its power” to prevent acts of genocide. They accepted South Africa’s claim that, at first glance, although not a final verdict, Israel’s words and actions appear genocidal. Jewish Israelis, however, see things differently: 95% of Jewish Israelis believed the Israeli military had used either the “appropriate” amount of force or “too little” force in Gaza, according to a mid-January 2024 poll. That’s 95% support for a plausible…

Vivek Ramaswamy Represents the Convergence of White Supremacy and Hindu Supremacy — And He May Well Be Trump’s Running Mate

By Usha Kumar

…markable contortion to force Hinduism into a form familiar to White nationalists: as simplistically monotheistic, laced with caste and Brahminical pride, and repeatedly aligned with “Judeo-Christian values.” The political trajectory of the Hindu far-right could also portend the broader long-term direction of the U.S. far-right. In a moment where both major parties find themselves at an inflection point, the political roles of growing non-White imm…

It’s Not the Name It’s the Theocratic Vision — THE NEW APOSTOLIC REFORMATION’S PR PROBLEM

By Frederick Clarkson

…ay, Christian Right leader Tim LaHaye, and Adrian Rogers, president of the Southern Baptist Convention, who was a leader in the fundamentalist takeover of the denomination. COR founder Jay Grimstead’s explanation (which has been taken down) of this broad move of evangelicalism, (lifted from one of COR’s 25 Articles of Affirmation and Denial on the Kingdom of God), illuminates the anti-democratic totalism of the Dominionist agenda. We deny that any…

Uncovering the (White) Christian Roots of Slavery, Native American Genocide, and Ongoing Efforts to Erase History

By Bradley Onishi

…nd removal of Indigenous people in Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia—all these Southeastern states that had Native American populations. In the early 1800s they began to be pushed off the land and then were forcibly pushed off the land [even more rapidly] under Andrew Jackson’s presidency. It was the largest forced migration in the continent’s history. Some 80,000 people were forced from their land, and maybe 20% of them died en route to what is now O…

Why Don’t White People Show Up For Juneteenth The Way They Showed Up For George Floyd?

By A. E. Brooks-Key

…e numbers. This month I attended two Juneteenth festivals in the Columbia, South Carolina metropolitan area and the results were the same: minimum White attendance. Both events were free to the public, with ideal weather and plenty of good food and entertainment. Whereas a cross-section of Black America was in attendance, Whites stuck out like rice in chocolate pudding. But those who did attend appeared to share some interesting commonalities: mix…

The Death of a Black Man at the Hands of Black Officers Unveiled Something More Complex Than Whiteness

By Willie Dwayne Francois

…, U.S. policing started in Boston to control poor Irish immigrants; in the South to maintain the slavocracy; and in the Midwest to intimidate Native Americans into a unique form of segregation. The anti-Black, anti-immigrant, anti-poor ethos of our policing keeps these histories alive on our streets as disempowered communities live vulnerable to what Achille Mbembe calls necropolitics. The death of Mr. Nichols unveils something more complex than W…
