Christianity

2004

• August 9 -- David Kirkpatrick's Churchgoing Habit
Another month, another story by David Kirkpatrick on the propriety of conservative churches voicing support for the Bush campaign.

• July 19 -- "Ethnic Cleansing Celebrated As the Height of Piety"
Nicholas Kristof's column is slightly less offensive than its title ("Jesus and Jihad") but it's close: "No, I don't think the readers of [the Christian apocalyptic novel] 'Glorious Appearing' will ram planes into buildings. But we did imprison thousands of Muslims here and abroad after 9/11, and ordinary Americans joined in the torture of prisoners at Abu Ghraib in part because of a lack of empathy for the prisoners."

• February 3 -- Religious Wrongs at the Times
Does the Times require religious guidance?

 

• September 17 -- “Christ’s Girlfriend”
The Times Sunday magazine features a Deborah Solomon interview with the editor for “Revolve,” a fashionable Bible for teenage girls. Solomon calls one passage “positively regressive” and describes Mary Magdalene as “Christ’s girlfriend.”
