It's noble of Klein to want to engage in good-faith debate; the problem seems to be with the ignoble people he chooses as his debate partners.

I am very excited for Taylor Swift to get married. I am also very excited for her to get divorced! I’m not saying that it’s required, at all, I’m just saying I enjoy divorce albums and this one would be SUPREME ULTRA

In case you missed the link earlier, I wrote an obituary (of sorts) for Jimmy Swaggart over at @religiondispatches.org.

'The LORD told me it’s flat none of your business': Jimmy Swaggart’s Scandalous Legacy

Televangelist Jimmy Swaggart died yesterday. He’ll be remembered in many ways—as a charismatic preacher and talented singer (Swaggart was Jerry Lee Lewis' cousin). But perhaps his most lasting legacy ...

Had a delightful time presenting my work at the Religion and Sexual Abuse conference at UC Riverside.

If fellow teacher friends are considering assigning my book, I'd be glad to chat with your students about it!

Anyway we all know that reality-TV is merely bread and circuses to distract us, and that understanding it will give you no insight into politics and the currents of history. Unrelated, here's what the host of The Apprentice did for the stars of Chrisley Knows Best www.nytimes.com/2025/05/27/u...
