Anyone from #SBLAAR18 should check this out.

Super excited to announce a new project I am working on with The Atlantic. The Atlantic religion forum will be an online community where the biggest religion stories around the world will be discussed on a weekly basis. Share and sign up! More details to follow.

@andrewmarkhenry Hey Andrew! Did you go to SBL this year? I did. It was my first year presenting.

Catholics need not be wary of June's #PrideMonth It’s a way for LGBT people to be proud that they are beloved children of God, they have families who love them as they are, and they have a right to be treated with "respect, compassion and sensitivity" after years of persecution.

@rachelsteenblik @joshuadtanner @MyMormonOpinion @HohleDenLowen @DaBessSherry @shaylafrandsen @olivia_meikle I'm very curious to see some examples of this! I'm not aware of any.

Opening prayer in Sacrament meeting, our former bishop prayed to our Heavenly Parents from the pulpit so yes, the Berkeley ward is the One True Ward™️ of the church

In that case, can Satan cook breakfast, bathe, dress, and take my kid to preschool tomorrow? I’m tired. twitter.com/rightwingwatch…

Wow. Bonnie Oscarson's voice breaks as she pleads for YW to have more responsibility in the @LDSchurch and to feel their contributions are valued. I hope leaders are listening. The longitudinal stats on teen girls leaving organized religion are now actually worse than for boys.

If you believe the presence of undocumented immigrants are driving down your wages, maybe you should organize w/ them to secure a living wage for every worker instead of being a lackey for the system that oppresses you. IJS

It will become increasingly vital that we learn to distinguish between what is pro-Christian and what is actually Christlike.

@missmadiejean @rachelsteenblik Janan Graham-Russell has written about Heavenly Mother as a black woman.

No, not the same. One side is racist, bigoted, Nazi. The other opposes racism and bigotry. Morally different universes.

@Stephen_Smoot @DaleGRenlund I want to be lit like Abinadi!

"We must not be guilty of persecuting anyone inside or outside the Church." - #ElderRenlund #ldsconf

"We must guard against bigotry that raises its ugly voice toward those who hold different opinions." #ElderRenlund | #LDSConf

@metteharrison I was curious about that myself. But the blessing is that much of this talk has pro-LGBT implications.

@MassTPC When/where is the rally on March 5?
