I am thankful for thoughtful pieces like this because it has been shocking to see a segment of Christian 'leaders' praising this vile decision Christianity teaches us not to turn executions into entertainment share.google/kX78RbePZJ3w...

Christianity teaches us not to turn executions into entertainment
(RNS) — The history of public executions suggests that when they are staged in free countries, they serve to degrade the citizens.

It is really remarkable that while American Evangelicals like Rob Jeffress, Andrew Walker, et al. are defending capital punishment, the First American Pope is offering a better Christian option. I can totally see how someone would choose to be a Catholic instead of this version of protestantism

Is there anyone in the cabinet who is remotely good at their jobs!? It is enraging that the folks who railed against DEI and talked about "meritocracy" are so incompetent.

The worst thing about Hassett in particular is that stupid grin he has on his face when he consistently lies about virtually everything he talks about.

The Gospel transcends partisanship. Reducing Christianity to a political bargaining chip does a profound disservice to its transformative power www.npr.org/2026/09/27/n...

These Democrats are making Christianity a centerpiece of their midterm campaigns
It's rare for Democrats to make religion a centerpiece of their campaigns. But this midterm election cycle, a number of candidates for Congress are doing just that.

We’re in the middle of a fight against an administration waging an illegal war, unleashing fascist immigration enforcement goons on the American people, and raiding the country’s coffers—all with the aid of a wholly pliant GOP Congress. For Fetterman to do this is just a reprehensible betrayal.

I think the general consensus of people around the world is that Americans can get fooled by a con man once, but to return him to power a 2nd time after having seen his corruption, incompetence, ignorance, & buffoonery, the problem isn’t just Trump it’s the American people.

One of the most despicable things about this administration is their apparent disregard for other people's agency. They like to impose their will on others without any expectation of a reaction.

At this point I think we can say that the Natalie Harp stuff is a case of the Streisand Effect—if the entire conservative influencer industrial complex hadn’t been put into motion to object to Ossoff’s mention of her, I doubt we’d have all this coverage of how weird her whole situation with Trump is

One of the hardest parts of this moment is the sheer cruelty coming from the administration—how they seem to delight in hurting vulnerable people just to cater to the powerful. It is the exact opposite of the Gospel.

the fact that john ossoff can kick off a two-day media cycle by saying that the president is uninterested in doing his job and is sleeping through meetings and traveling around with a young blonde, suggests that not enough of these guys are speaking plainly and effectively about these assholes

I will never forget the comment from a Trump supporter who was impacted by DJT's first shutdown in his first term, she said "he is not hurting the people he should be hurting' and that right there is the central thesis of Trumpism, it is based on grievance and resentment
