BREAKING: In a unanimous decision, a federal court of appeals has ruled that Louisiana's law requiring the Ten Commandments to be displayed in all public school classrooms is unconstitutional.

The court got it wrong.
Denying transgender youth the health care they need solely because they’re trans is discriminatory, and we will keep fighting.

Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. apparently embraces the outdated "miasma theory" of disease instead of the widely accept "germ theory" of disease, which may help explain some of the actions he's been taking.

I teach religion and Continental philosophy and I'm not an expert on international security politics, and my main thought about the violence between Iran and Israel is that it's bad when civilians die, on both sides, and people shouldn't be making justifications for why it's actually fine.
