Seven-in-Heaven Way, Hybrid Pope, & “Chrislam”

By Michael J. Altman

…e he claimed American pastors like Rick Warren and Robert H. Schuller were promoting a mix of Christianity and Islam he labeled “Chrislam.” A new survey from Pew finds that evangelicals in the northern hemisphere are pessimistic about their influence on life in their countries while those in the southern hemisphere see their influence growing. American evangelicals were some of the most glum about their ability to influence the country.At least on…

Woe to You, Bryan Fischer

By Candace Chellew-Hodge

…nemployment benefits will add to the deficit: Conceding on this point is a sign that the GOP senatorial leadership still doesn’t get it. There is no offset for this extension of unemployment benefits, meaning that the GOP did not insist that some way be found to cover the cost of this program without borrowing money from their own grandchildren. They’re just going to willy-nilly add to the deficit cavalierly and casually, as if the Tea Party movem…

Atheists and Christians Compete to Give More

By Lauri Lebo

…. (Jam. 1:27)” While I have not joined a team, the contest motivated me to sign up for Kiva. My modest donation of $25 went to a Cambodian woman to fund a portion of the $1,000 worth of equipment she needs to start her bakery. Once her loan is repaid, I will be able to recycle my $25 to help fund another project for another individual. And on it goes. I’m sure the recipients of these micro-loans don’t really care all that much about lenders’ motiv…

Why Conservatives are Turning on Beck

By Sarah Posner

…s nuclear threat, at the Heritage Foundation, and about how the film being promoted by a former colleague of World Net Daily’s Aaron Klein, who was one of the first conservative writers to jump on the conspiracy train: lest you forget, that line of thinking goes, Mohamed ElBaradei, while head of the IAEA, let Iran off the hook on its nuclear ambitions; ElBaradei’s OK with the Muslim Brotherhood; therefore he must be behind the plot to install a nu…

Paranoia Over Foreigners in Egypt Eclipsed by Cooperation

By H.A. Hellyer

…des, although in different ways. In anti-government Tahrir Square, I saw a sign instructing Americans to stay out of Egypt’s business – while I heard pro-government supporters (peacefully queuing along with everyone else to get into Tahrir) claiming that foreign agents were in the middle of all this. Not that this translated into any sort of unsafe environment for foreigners in Tahrir itself. Tahrir, despite being the scene of a protest bereft of…

Confusion Reigns on Cairo Streets

By H.A. Hellyer

…e violence upon themselves. On the other side, many took the violence as a sign that there would be no peaceful transition over the coming months—rather, that anti-government protestors could expect to be arrested in the weeks and months ahead. In yet another camp, one could see the skepticism about the protestors being even able to take power if they ever wanted to, as disorganized as they are. In the midst of all of this, there are all sorts of…

Violence Came To Tahrir Square With Pro-Mubarak Protests

By H.A. Hellyer

…e them a password to speed things up at the next checkpoint, and we send a sign to the next check-point to let them know all is well. Today, we’ve added something less: are you with him, or against him? It was a different mood than yesterday. In traditional Muslim societies, its often been taken for granted that the existence of a bad ruler is better than no ruler at all—tyranny with security was better than anarchy. As such, by and large, religio…

Democratic Egypt Tests a Divided Israel

By Shaul Magid

…srael moved closer to the United States in the 1960s when the Soviet Union signaled that it would back the Arab world. The mainstream Israeli left, perhaps best represented by Haaretz, supports the uprising for democracy and removal of Hosni Mubarak as a positive shift in Middle East politics. A January 31 editorial, while not explicitly calling for the removal of President Mubarak, hopes that movements for democracy in other autocratic nations in…

When Nazi Comparisons are “Civil”

By Sarah Posner

…one of the document’s first enthusiastic signers, urged people not only to sign it, but to read Hannah Arendt’s Origins of Totalitarianism, which he called “prophetic in its application to today.” Indeed the Manhattan Declaration itself, dressed up as a celebration of “life,” hauls out the trope that abortion is like genocide or holocaust, and claims that LGBT rights infringe on (real) Christians’ religious freedom. In his video released in conjun…
