On Fri\u00addays I share articles\/resources I have found help\u00adful recent\u00adly in think\u00ading about broad\u00ader cul\u00adtur\u00adal, soci\u00adetal and the\u00ado\u00adlog\u00adi\u00adcal issues. Be sure to see the expla\u00adna\u00adtion and dis\u00adclaimers at the bot\u00adtom.<\/span><\/p>\n

Also, I nor\u00admal\u00adly include arti\u00adcles from a vari\u00adety of sources, but this week I noticed that I\u2019m includ\u00ading a bunch from GetRe\u00adli\u00adgion. I guess they\u2019ve been on fire late\u00adly. <\/span><\/p>\n

  1. Death, The Pros\u00adper\u00adi\u00adty Gospel, and Me<\/span><\/a> (Kate Bowler, NY Times): This piece is mov\u00ading and fun\u00adny and also not quite right\u2026 despite her study she still mis\u00adun\u00adder\u00adstands some aspects of the Charis\u00admat\u00adic and Pen\u00adte\u00adcostal world. All in all well worth read\u00ading. \u201c<\/span>No word of a lie: I once saw a megachurch pas\u00adtor almost choke to death on his own fog machine. Some\u00adone had cranked it up to the Holy Spir\u00adit max\u00adi\u00admum.\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. Think Pieces on Jus\u00adtice Scalia, Funer\u00adal Ser\u00admons, Humil\u00adi\u00adty, and the First Amend\u00adment<\/span><\/a> (Ter\u00adry Mat\u00adting\u00adly, GetRe\u00adli\u00adgion): Scalia was such a fas\u00adci\u00adnat\u00ading man.I like what one of our lawyer alum\u00adni post\u00aded on Face\u00adbook: \u201c<\/span>Jus\u00adtice Scalia! You wrote your opin\u00adions with so much life, I guess I thought you\u2019d nev\u00ader die. The world has lost a great grumpy con\u00adser\u00adv\u00ada\u00adtive. Rest easy.\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n
  3. Why Is The Atlantic Sur\u00adprised That Ear\u00adly Pro-Lif\u00aders Were, Uh, Lib\u00ader\u00adals?<\/span><\/a> (Julia Dulin, GetRe\u00adli\u00adgion): This is an arti\u00adcle about some arti\u00adcles about a book. Meta but fas\u00adci\u00adnat\u00ading.<\/span><\/li>\n
  4. Lit\u00adtle Sis\u00adters of the Poor on Supreme Court case: Why we can\u2019t \u201cjust sign the form\u201d<\/span><\/a> (<\/span>Con\u00adstance Veit, <\/span>Catholic Review): Moth\u00ader Theresa\u2019s com\u00adpa\u00adtri\u00adots explain their con\u00adsci\u00aden\u00adtious objec\u00adtion in their own words.<\/span><\/li>\n
  5. Vote For Trump! Vote For Hilary! Vote For Jesus At This Racial\u00adly Diverse S.C. Megachurch!<\/span><\/a> (Bob\u00adby Ross, GetRe\u00adli\u00adgion): Inter\u00adest\u00ading. Also, a reminder that reporters\u2019 per\u00adspec\u00adtives on church\u00ades often miss si<\/span>gnif\u00adi\u00adcant details.  \u201cNone of the rough\u00adly 1,300 words in the Times report is \u2018Jesus.\u2019\u201d <\/span><\/li>\n
  6. Caus\u00ades and Con\u00adse\u00adquences of the Protes\u00adtant Ref\u00ador\u00adma\u00adtion<\/span><\/a> (Beck\u00ader, Pfaff & Rubin, a work\u00ading paper): There\u2019s a lot here. Rec\u00adom\u00admend\u00aded for social sci\u00aden\u00adtists. One cool bit: \u201cThey argue that the spread of uni\u00adver\u00adsi\u00adty stu\u00addents from Protes\u00adtant strong\u00adholds (Wit\u00adten\u00adberg and Basel, the intel\u00adlec\u00adtu\u00adal homes of Luther and Zwingli) and ortho\u00addox Catholic strong\u00adholds (Cologne and Lou\u00advain) had a sig\u00adnif\u00adi\u00adcant impact on whether a town ulti\u00admate\u00adly adopt\u00aded the Ref\u00ador\u00adma\u00adtion.\u201d Which is a very fan\u00adcy way of say\u00ading God uses uni\u00adver\u00adsi\u00adty stu\u00addents. <\/span><\/li>\n
  7. On the ran\u00addom side:<\/span>\n
