Mississippi sheriff's solution to the drug crisis? Everyone must 'truly find Jesus' The Friendly Atheist, By Hemant Mehta, on September 13, 2024https://www.friendlyatheist.com/p/mississippi-sheriffs-solution-toChurch Attendance is (Once Again) Correlated with Authoritarianism — So Why Do We Refuse to Acknowledge It?Religion Dispatches by Chrissy Stroop on September 13, 2024https://religiondispatches.org/church-attendance-correlated-with-authoritarianism-again-so-why-do-we-still-refuse-to-acknowledge-it/The sheriff of Monroe County, Mississippi, recently posted two public messages after arresting a man for methamphetamine and weapons possession. He proclaimed that the only solution to the county's drug problem was to find Jesus, raising concerns about mixing religious proselytization with law enforcement duties. His focus on religious salvation over actionable solutions to address the root causes of drug addiction sparked debate. The sheriff's belief that turning to religion, rather than critically addressing systemic issues, could solve the drug crisis highlights a troubling approach in regions saturated with religiosity.Additionally, research has indicated that individuals with higher religiosity often exhibit more authoritarian attitudes and lean toward conservative political figures. This correlation between religiosity and authoritarianism complicates efforts to address public health crises like drug addiction. The articles discussed point out that while religion may provide some individuals with tools to cope with addiction, it often relies on fear and dogma rather than addressing the root causes. In fact, there's evidence that individuals sometimes replace one addiction, such as drugs, with religious fervor, which can be considered a process addiction.Interestingly, some religious recovery programs like Alcoholics Anonymous have reported success. However, studies show that non-religious recovery programs, which share structural similarities to religious ones, are just as effective. These programs focus on social support, group meetings, and creating a sober culture, rather than attributing success to divine intervention. The research suggests that it is not the religious content that makes a difference but the social support networks that these programs foster.In contrast to the religious approach, countries with more secular policies like Switzerland and the Netherlands have successfully used harm reduction programs, including supervised use sites, mental health treatment, and naloxone distribution. These initiatives have significantly reduced drug overdose rates and have been more effective than punitive measures or solely religious approaches. Though the U.S. attempted a decriminalization program in Oregon, the COVID pandemic hindered its full potential, ultimately leading to its repeal in 2022.The conversation highlights the tension between religious ideology and practical, evidence-based solutions to public health crises like drug addiction. While religious organizations offer community and support, focusing exclusively on spiritual salvation can overlook the underlying issues and solutions grounded in health policy and social services.The Non-Prophets, Episode 23.39.1 featuring Cynthia McDonald, Scott Dickie and AJBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-non-prophets--3254964/support.

Brad and Dan begin by discussing the State of the Union address given by Pres. Biden this past week. Brad touches on Biden's main theme: how he is working to provide support, relief, funding for Americans in the form of infrastructure, healthcare, and price protections. On the other hand, Dan notes, the GOP reacted to the speech with consistent jeering and boos with Marjorie Taylor Green leading the way. This represents for both of them the ways that democratic processes have been eroded in the face of the perpetual culture wars waged by the GOP and the result of seeing your political opponent as enemies. In the second segment they breakdown a long article by Timothy Keller at the Atlantic in which the pastor argues that Christianity can be saved in America if evangelicals are willing to clean up its image and prioritize justice. For the hosts, this is a classic evangelical rebranding exercise done in a faux intellectual vein. This links to the topic of the third segment - the $100 million campaign "He Get Us," which is a marketing enterprise meant to introduce Americans to the ways of Jesus. While it seems to be POC centric and a message about welcoming the vulnerable - refugees and immigrants - the hosts dig into the funders and tell a deeper story . . .

Any multi-lingual dirty talkers out there with wisdom to share?  A bi woman and her man used to go to co-ed bathhouses. Once covid hit, they stopped.

A 45 year-old woman's parent came out as a trans woman a few years ago. The daughter uses she/her pronouns, but gets hung up when talking about the past. She remembers growing up with a father, not two mothers, and her parent encourages use of the word “dad” to refer to that time. But that's hard! Dan brings on Chrissy Stroop, an exvangelical writer who came out as trans in 2019, and writes about religion and queer issues.  And, a woman in an open, trusting relationship couldn't help herself and snooped over a long weekend, rummaging through her boyfriend's phone. She didn't find anything questionable, but when she went back to look at his What'sApp, she discovered he'd locked it. He never said anything to her about it. She feels stupid and guilty. Should she come clean? Or sit in the ickiness of her misdeed and vow to snoop no more?  This episode is brought to you by Talkspace- online therapy that makes it easy to get extra mental health support.

How should we deal with irrational or difficult people? And what are some good strategies for establishing healthy boundaries with such people in our lives?As a very pro-social podcast, we realized this may be our weakness after we talked to Chrissy Stroop in Episode 618. Chrissy, a trans woman, told us she did not feel it her responsibility to keep toxic or unsupportive people in her life, and Bart pushed back because he feels building bridges across such divides is so important. Where should the healthy limits of our empathy, tolerance and relationship-building be set?Mark Goulston is a psychiatrist, author, professor and consultant to corporations and large organizations who is known for a process called 'surgical empathy' among many other things. His book Talking to Crazy was the reason we wanted him on, but he has many others available everywhere books are sold.In this conversation with Bart, Mark talks about validation therapy, the mirror neuron gap, surgical empathy, connecting with people in pain, the direct relationship between oxytocin and cortisol, awareness conversations versus advice conversations, givers, takers and receivers, assertive humility, the role of adrenaline in coping with trauma, Sharon Tate's mom, the five 'really's, and more.Mentioned in the episode:- Naomi Feil and Gladys Wilson in Russia on YouTube- What made you smile today? on TED- The Nail on YouTube—Support the podcast at Patreon.com/HumanizeMe!

Chrissy Stroop is a writer and scholar who, despite being an 'exvangelical', remains interested in, and critical of, evangelical culture. When she recently mentioned Bart Campolo in an article, we reached out to ask her if she wanted to have a conversation about how evangelicals think and talk about those who leave the faith. But the conversation took a different turn, becoming a friendly disagreement over whether or not we should try to form friendships with people who don't share our core values, or when there's a big ideological divide. Chrissy, a trans woman, thinks not, because she doesn't believe that friendships should involve attempts to change other people, while Bart thinks influencing others is a key part of relationships.

In light of recent events we are re-releasing Dan's interview with Chrissy Stroop, who helps explain the Evangelical obsession with Israel. One of the main themes is how Evangelicals profess love for Israel based on their need for it theologically, but rarely attend to the actual lives or politics of Jewish people. They explain how this works through an examination of supersessionism and Christian Zionism.
