This is cool:
“Where you headed?”
Me: “Going to a religious studies conference.”
“Oh, are you a pastor?”
Me: “No, I study the cultural history of religion….”
“But do you want to be a pastor? Why else would you study religion?”

If I know @thornthewitch.bsky.social like I think I do, hecklers will be welcome.
It’s #sblaar24 time! My panel is at 12:30 on Sunday, CC 7B, and I’ll be using Deleuze and notions of religion as a means of state regulation to think about contemporary witchcraft as “secular” instead of the usual “nature religion.” Relevant for folks interested in contemporary Paganism or NRMs.

Presenting at 12:30 on Monday at #sblaar24 #aar in the Philosophy of Religions Unit. My paper: “Affect Theory, Noise, & Rhythms of Resistance in 1819 New Orleans.” This unit will discuss the relationship between music and philosophy, and various methodological issues that arise from the comparison

Stoked to be presenting in the Philosophy of Religions Unit at #AARSBL2024 #SBLAAR2024 #AARSBL in San Diego. Happy to connect with others, especially if you’re interested in religion, race, music, sound, affect or if you love hi-fives.

One of the happiest things for me since joining Bluesky is the excellent community of thinkers and writers who focus on religion. Ahead of #AARSBL and my trip to San Diego, a short 🧵about my acquiring interests for @uncpress.bsky.social #aar #aar24 /1

Let's talk about how to report on right-wingers without amplifying their hateful rhetoric. Far-right extremists count on YOU to spread their messages for them. Here's a thread of resources.
