  • Confronting Religious Absolutism
    Catherine M. Wallace / Catherine MWallace
    Papal infallibility and biblical inerrancy provide the conceptual foundations of theocracy, which is to say religiously-based totalitarianism. These absolutist doctrines emerge for the very first time among the Victorians: they are not ancient beliefs at all. They appear in the 19th century, right alongside secular varieties totalitarian thought, and in response to all the same...

  • Confronting a Controlling God
    Catherine M. Wallace / Catherine MWallace
    Christianity has lost control of its brand. That matters even for nonbelievers because Christian symbolism permeates Western culture. It shapes the source code for how we think about ourselves and what we expect from one another. If God is all-controlling, then human control is divinely sanctioned. Our efforts to control one another have cosmic legitimacy--the legitimacy claime...

  • The Confrontational Wit of Jesus
    Catherine M. Wallace / Catherine MWallace
    Jesus did not die to save us from God. He died because the Romans did not tolerate charismatic teachers who attracted a lively following. Jesus attracted that following through his personal compassion, his confrontational inclusivity, and his skill in using laughter as a nonviolent weapon of mass disruption. The Gospel authors picked up Jesus’ witty techniques. They adeptly par...

  • Confronting Religious Denial of Science
    Catherine M. Wallace / Catherine MWallace
    Confronting Religious Denial of Science: Christian Humanism and the Moral Imagination traces the cultural backstory of contemporary conflicts between biblical literalists who oppose evolution and 'New Atheists' who insist that religion is so pernicious it should be outlawed, if not exterminated. That’s a clash of fundamentalisms. It’s a zero-sum game derived from high Victorian...

  • Confronting Religious Judgmentalism
    Catherine M. Wallace / Catherine MWallace
    Come to church or go to hell. That’s religious bullying. It’s judgmentalism. And it’s a theological distortion, a distortion insisting that shame and self-loathing are morally appropriate. In Christian humanist tradition, God is not some cosmic judge eager to smite all of us for our sinfulness. God is compassion. We are cherished by God beyond our wildest imagining. We are call...

  • Confronting Religious Violence
    Catherine M. Wallace / Catherine MWallace
    Confronting Religious Violence: Christian Humanism and the Moral Imagination tells the tale of Christian theocracy in the West. Who converted whom was never entirely clear: the empire did stop feeding people to the lions for public entertainment; but Christianity was theologically corrupted by its official role in legitimating empire-as-usual. That theological corruption led to...

  • Confronting Religious Denial of Gay Marriage
    Catherine M. Wallace / Catherine MWallace
    Writing in part for secular humanists, non-Christians, and ex-Christians, Wallace locates the beginning of religious vilification of LBGTQ Americans: these attacks recycle earlier, equally reactionary political opposition to racial desegregation and equal rights for women. Then, step by step, she lays out three major flaws in the religious argument against gay marriage. First, ...
