(AP-Photo) Paul Ryan: So you’ve changed your mind about Trump and endorsed him. I too changed my mind. Some 30 years ago-plus I changed my mind about being a Republican on the religious right. But I did not change my mind about loving my country. You have. You have embraced Trump. And you have betrayed us all. You have also betrayed our mutual friend Congressman Jack Kemp’s memory. Jack is remembered among other things as your mentor. You are a traitor to... Read more

Today’s religious world (Christian/Islamic/Jewish/Hindu-nationalist et al) thrives on private “facts.” Were you home “schooled?” Do you think Donald Trump is smart? Did you go to a Christian “college” or other type of Madrasa? Are you the the type of Jew or Muslim who feels God “gave” you the so-called Holy Land? Do you believe that George W. Bush was a good president or that it’s wrong to sit next to a woman on a plane? Do you believe in a... Read more
I got a call from Samantha Bee’s office the other day: Could they interview me on the role my film series “Whatever Happened to the Human Race?” played in launching the anti-abortion movement and the religious right? I said yes. They sent a crew to my home… and here’s a bit of the result. Thanks Amanda Bee! This Saturday, June 4, please watch TBS and the Full Frontal Show I’m on! Thanks! Bee then spoke to filmmaker Frank Schaeffer, the... Read more
(C. Hitchens- Photo NPR.org) Open any issue of Christianity Today magazine and scan the article titles and sub-headings in case you want to know why the Americanized, post-Billy Graham version of evangelical faith comes across as so fucking dumb. Evangelical Speak is just so presumptuous! It never even begins to meet the skeptic halfway. Evangelical Speak is an entirely private coded language. It assumes: the existence of God with no need for argument, let alone apologetics that believers get direct... Read more
Unlike Muslim fundamentalists who use bullets, bombs and beheadings to enforce Sharia from the top down, Christian fundamentalists will not overthrow democracy in a military takeover that sweeps out one system (democracy) and replaces it with another (theocracy). The kinder, gentler, Christian extremist seeks to replace democracy with theocracy by undermining our rights and protections from the bottom up, one law at a time. Here is an article by my old and dear friend Mel White. It was first published... Read more

In the end all the GOP congressional cowards will support Trump. Good! As Jesus said of the GOP, “How terrible it will be for you, scribes and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You are like whitewashed tombs that look beautiful on the outside but inside are full of dead people’s bones and every kind of impurity” (Matthew 23:27). In other words according to Jesus, after the 2016 election, no one will mistake the Republicans for anything more than the assholes who... Read more
