The NYT published a glowing profile of right-wing evangelicals getting Trump to undermine the Johnson amendment—but failed to mention how most religious Americans don’t want partisan pulpit endorsements. I correct the record in this Letter to the Editor. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/08/o...

I attended the first hearing of Trump’s Religious Liberty Commission at the Museum of the Bible—but walked out when AG Bondi listed her purely political grievances of so-called anti-Christian bias.

If I were brainstorming ways to supercharge church decline which is already high (The Southern Baptist Convention has lost 3.6 million members over the past two decades), a Trump commission calling for the federal government to promote religion would be HIGH on my list of potential interventions.

This is a joke of a presidential commission.
Every member is a far-right activist, and the witnesses are here to reaffirm preexisting beliefs of commissioners.
Religious liberty is a core American value. Trump’s Religious Liberty Commission does a disservice to this value.

Trump’s Religious Liberty Commission is off to a terrible start by hosting first hearing at the Museum of the Bible and a Christian prayer to start. Now Ben Carson is doubting evolution.
Using the force of government to promote fundamentalist Christianity does no service to the Christian faith.

First speaker at the flagship #NOKINGS march in Philadelphia is Bishop William Barber.
If you’re not seeing the power of FAITH in the pro-democracy movement, you’re missing a big motivating factor of this massive protest moment.

Just two Baptists in front of #SCOTUS defending the separation of church and state, a Baptist and American tradition in this country that goes back before our founding as a country!
And fun to do it with @raushenbush.bsky.social, the great-grandson of a justice!
