When a medical error occurs, it is critical that we view the error through the lens of empathy and Just Culture. This includes errors that have made national headlines. Welcome to Episode 35. How can a surgeon remove someone's liver thinking it is a spleen that is so diseased that it was four times bigger than normal and it had moved to the other side of his body? In this episode, we discuss the unbelievable case of William Bryan who went into the hospital for left-sided flank pain and ultimately died on the OR table after Dr. Thomas Shaknovsky allegedly transected the major vasculature supplying the liver.----------------------------------------------------------------------------------Real Nurses, Real Talk website: https://www.purposedrivenpx.com/real-nurses-real-talk-podcastInterest form to tell your story: https://form.jotform.com/230685346709060Be sure to connect with us on Instagram:@realnurses_pcSend questions, topic ideas, and/or comments to realnursespc@gmail.com.
Sean talks with Elle Herman about the varieties and modalities of fascism and the carceral dynamics at stake in the institution of criminal prosecution. Elle recently gave a talk for the Karasu Philosophical Society in Albuquerque titled "The Problem of Prosecuting Fascism." In the talk, she focuses on two recent prosecutions of notorious 2020 American vigilantes: Kyle Rittenhouse's trial for fatally shooting Anthony Huber and Joseph Rosenbaum and non-fatal shooting of Gaige Grosskreutz at the Jacob Blake protests in Kenosha, WI; and the trial of the McMichaels and William Bryan for the pursuit and murder of Ahmaud Arbery around Brunswick, GA.On Monday, the McMichaels were each sentenced to life in prison +, while Bryan received a sentence to serve 35 years. While Sean interviewed Elle last week, the problems she approaches in her talk are all the more significant to consider in light of these sentencings. Listen to our brief interview at the beginning followed by a recording of Elle Herman's talk, "The Problem of Prosecuting Fascism," from earlier this year.Elle Herman is, among other things, a union and labor organizer and doctoral student at UNM. We will release a video of this talk in the next couple of weeks.

Three men were sentenced in federal court for their role in the February 2020 murder of Ahmaud Arbery. The man who shot Arbery, Travis McMichael, and his father Gregory McMichael were sentenced to life in prison. William Bryan, who was with the McMichaels that day, got 35 years.A new study published in the Nature Climate Change journal found that climate change can worsen the spread of infectious diseases like malaria, cholera and anthrax.

The three men who were convicted of killing Ahmaud Arbery were all found guilty of federal hate crimes trial on Feb. 22—after the jury spent less than 24 hours deliberating. The verdict comes just a day before the second anniversary of Arbery's death. Gregory McMichael, his son Travis McMichael and William Bryan all faced one count each of interfering with Arbery's civil rights and one count each of attempted kidnapping; the McMichaels each faced an additional firearm charge.

Everything David Waldman and Greg Dworkin say from this point can be read backwards to Monday: The United Nations Security Council is still working feverishly for a pact to declare peace for our time — but no worries, Putin just wants to annex another little slice of Ukraine off, and then he'll finally be satisfied... plus a few more things. Donald Trump wishes he pulled a genius move like that with Mexico, but of course Vlad would never have tried something like that with him, because there wouldn't be a NATO by now. The GQP loves this whole thing and couldn't be more Russian if you paid them. Finns want to have a word about this “Finlandization” people keep talking about. Republicans do support sanctions on Canada. Pro-Covid trailer parks went over so well in Ottawa, that they are taking the show on the road to the states. The last thing Virginians need is out of state attention seekers, so that'll be their first stop. So far, the plan is to send 10, 20, 25, or 1 truck. Whatever number will probably find the US capitol to be a harder target. Democrats and Republicans agree, redistricting in Ohio is a constitutional crisis! If only the Ohio Constitution mattered at all in Ohio politics, that might be a big deal. It's as if civil rights mattered to the Trump Supreme Court… Actually, it's Ginni Thomas' Supreme Court, she just lent it to Trump for a while. If Melania Trump scams herself on NFTs, which one was the mark? Armando and @emptywheel figure out who the real players were in the January 6 coup. William Bryan and Greg and Travis McMichael demonstrated just how much it takes to convict White men of hate crimes in America.
Three white men convicted of murdering Ahmaud Arbery in 2020 in Georgia were found guilty Tuesday of federal hate crimes. The jury concluded that Greg and Travis McMichael and their neighbor William Bryan targeted and shot Arbery because he was Black.

Episode 73 The murder of Ahmaud Arbery in February of 2020 sent shockwaves throughout the country and galvanized the cries of activist groups and race baiters alike. At the end of the confrontation, a black man was dead and three white men claimed self defense while attempting to conduct a citizen's arrest. This has brought the question of citizen's arrest into the spotlight. What is it, who can make it, and when? Where is the line between self-defense and citizen's arrest? Did Arbery have the right to defend himself? In this episode of the Removing Barriers podcast, we explore these questions and grapple with their implications as people living in a fallen world and the Savior Jesus Christ who has made the way to save us from them. Post script: At the time of the publishing of this podcast, both Travis and Gregory McMichael were sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole plus 20 years. William Bryan was sentenced to life in prison with the possibility of parole after 30 years.

Episode 116p Retrieving the Real North African Church with Dr. David WilhiteDescription: Today is the last episode in our Summer of Scholars series. It lasted a bit more than just the summer, but it also started late in summer! Dr. David Wilhite, Ph.D., of Baylor University Truett Theological Seminary joins us today to talk about the Church of North Africa during antiquity.

In this episode, Dr. Wilhite will lead us through a specific text and issue in the North African Church between the Donatists and the Catholic party about a generation before Augustine.

We have Peter the great. Today is the last episode. And our summer of scholar series, it lasted a bit more than just the summer, but it also started late in summer.So I'll take it that we got a little bit of a late ending too. But anyways, for today, we are interviewing a great scholar, Dr. David Wilhite of Baylor university's Truett, theological seminary to talk to us today about the church in north Africa, during antiquity, we've talked a lot about [00:02:00] the north African church in this series.So I highly suggest you go back and listen to our episodes with Dr. David Eastman and even go way, way back to the episode that I did on the north African church. And you can kind of explore. Not only my changing understanding of north African Christianity, but also some older scholarship and how the whole church and north Africa was viewed because really up until the seven hundreds, the history of Western Christianity was the church in north Africa.And I it's just endlessly fascinating. And I think you really can't understand Western Latin Christianity without understanding the north African church. Now for this episode, Dr. Wilhite will lead us through a specific text and issue in the north African church between the Donna tests and the Catholic party about a generation before Augustan.It is a [00:03:00] fascinating time and place in church history. And with that, here's the next piece of the mosaic of the history of the Pope's of Rome and Christian Church.I'd like to welcome our very special guests today, Dr. David Wilhite, Dr. Willhite is a professor of theology at Truet seminary at Baylor university in Waco. He's the author of numerous books, including Tertullian, the African and ancient African Christianity. The topic for today's episode is his book, the true church, retrieving north African sermon on the song of songs.This is a short and readable book on a really incredible, interesting topic. And I think people should definitely pick it up and I'm excited to talk about it because I think it gives the reader a really close look at all these things we've been kind of talking about with the African church, with the Donna tests and the Catholics that gives us a [00:04:00] more of a personal view of the topic, I think.But so I think to start off, what were the theoretical frameworks you use to study these sermons? Yeah. Well, thanks Stephen. It's an honor to be talking to you about all of this. Um, let's say the theoretical framework. So this really began as an, uh, a journal article that I wrote, and I would say I was using pretty traditional methodology just as far as, you know, kind of trying to reexamine texts, trying to sort of create a chronological order and see what assumptions have been, um, uh, made in the past by previous scholars and what assumptions probably need to be challenged.And then I sort of tested them against archeological remains and again, just sort of, sort of traditional, uh, historical sources. Now, the truth is what was really driving that research was a theoretical framework that I had used in my, in my doctorate, which was, um, in most general terms post-colonialism, uh, more specifically.[00:05:00] Adopted some of the, sort of, uh, from the, from the field of social anthropology, sort of how to get around some of the ethnocentric assumptions that we make. So again, and challenge those, you know, the assumptions of earlier historians, what, uh, what were people's identities, what identity politics, where I play things like that.Um, power dynamics with, with Roman colonization, um, Apollo that, so with post-colonial theory in particular, there's one author named Homi Bhabha who has a book called the location of culture. And he takes up this idea known as third space. And since, um, that's already widespread and post-colonial theory is sort of the helping people who inhabit the so-called third space.They're not necessarily colonizer nor colonize, like that's too binary. They live in this sort of hybrid world. So, so what are their identities in that space? And then with, with this project, I was actually. Examining concrete spaces, the silica buildings. And so that, that [00:06:00] I sort of dove back into that realm of what is third space.Um, there, there is a person named Edwards. So high, I think is how you say it. So Jake who has taken on, I mean, this, this way of thinking from Michael Miguel, Michelle Fuko, and others, and saying like, how do we understand actual inhabited places where people sit and interact, um, especially when they're sort of power dynamics and, uh, one view versus another view and what emerges out of that, it's this third space.So I used all of that, trying to narrow laser-focused that on, on this one particular text. So we look at the. This text, there's the two, the dueling sermons. You might call them. Who were these two people who were writing these sermons about this, this space? Yeah. So the, the sort of last texts to us is by Armenian of Carthage.He's the Bishop of Carthage after Donotos and Donald tests. Your listeners probably remember from the great Donald to schism, he's the sort of the Bishop that was at the head of all of that for [00:07:00] 40 years, 40 plus years. So when he finally dies Permian as his successor, and he's also a long-term because over 40 years, he's the Bishop of Carthage, even though he was exiled, he was the leader of his party.So he's hugely influential. Um, and he, we know that he gives a sermon or some sort of speech, um, when. Uh, the emperor Julian who's a history remembers as Julian, the apostate, because he was not gonna continue the line of Christianity like Constantine and the other Christian emperors. Julian allows the so-called pagans to come back and have their temples and shrines back.And that means that all of the, um, the, you know, the, the losing parties, the heretics, uh, of the early church. We've been ousted from their churches and their, their places, uh, we're allowed back. And so the donotist party had lost control in terms of the Imperial sanction, uh, after Constantine. But then when emperor, Julian allows the donotist to [00:08:00] reclaim their church buildings, their basilicas Armenian has this text that is celebrating that event.So that texts that says lost to us, fortunately, even though like most heretics, you know, once you become a heritage, your books are burned. Like most of the heretic sources are lost, but, uh, there's a
Jury Duty continues its complete coverage of the murder trial of Travis and Greg McMichael and William "Roddie" Bryan. In our last episode we examined Glynn County Investigator Stephen Lowrey's testimony regarding his interview with defendant Willam Roddie Bryan on February 23, 2020, the day Ahmaud Arbery was killed. In The Killing of Ahmaud Arbery: The Second and Third William “Roddie” Bryan Interviews, host Kary Antholis examines the questioning of Georgia Bureau of Investigation Asst. Special Agent In Charge Jason Seacrist. Agent Seacrist conducted two interviews with William Bryan on May 11 and May 13 of 2020, two and a half months after Mr. Arbery's killing.

Two recent cases provide good examples of how arguing self-defense works in homicide cases. Andy, Laura, and Joe go through the Rittenhouse trial step-by-step, highlighting key reasons the jury found that Rittenhouse acted in self-defense. Then, we contrast that case to the trial of Gregory and Travis McMichael, and their neighbor William Bryan, who were convicted for killing Ahmaud Arbery despite their self-defense claims.
Reese, Jasmin and Emily discuss plans to replace Coney Island's wooden boardwalk with recycled plastic, Travis McMichael, Greg McMichael and William Bryan found guilty of the murder of Ahmaud Arbery, a power struggle over control of cobalt mining in the Democratic Republic of Congo, and the Thames in London being declared no longer "biologically dead".

Can Self-Defense Laws Survive in a Gun-Rich Country? Taking the law into our own hands and claiming self-defense when someone is shot is the subject of the Kyle Rittenhouse and Ahmaud Arbery cases. During two closely watched murder trials in two different states this past week, juries heard strikingly similar stories: men bought guns in the name of protecting the public and then told juries they killed unarmed people in self-defense. In one case, Kyle Rittenhouse fatally shot two men and wounded a third in the unrest following a police shooting in Kenosha, Wis. Another case involved Ahmaud Arbery, a Black man, who was shot after being pursued by three white men suspected of breaking into a house in the neighborhood. In both cases, the defendants started shooting as the victims were trying to steal their guns. In other words, their own decision to carry a gun became a justification to use it, lest it be wrested away from them,” said Eric Ruben, an expert on the Second Amendment at the S.M.U. Dedman School of Law in Dallas. It is evident, from these two cases, that; our concept of self-defense has deep flaws that are treasured, but not prepared to deal with an era of gun rights expansion, political extremism, and rising violence in a situation where race is heavily influencing perceptions of threat. A powerful vigilante strain. As a result of the fact that our citizens have guns, every line has become blurred. The combination of "stand your ground" provisions and citizen's arrest laws has granted people license not only to defend themselves but to go after others as well.[See Source] Defense is the act of defending. But what constitutes reasonableness? At what point must one retreat? And when is a citizen allowed to act as an aggressor on behalf of the state? Rifts have appeared in several debates, starting with whether openly displaying firearms makes people feel safer at the expense of everyone else, whether brandishing a gun constitutes a threat or self-defense, and whether people may benefit from self-defense claims if their actions contributed to the danger. Migrant militia members accused of plotting to kidnap Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer clashed with elected officials trying to make a so called citizen's arrest. It was argued in St. Louis whether white residents who aimed guns at Black Lives Matter protesters were assaulting them or defending their homes. They pleaded guilty to misdemeanor assault and harassment, then were pardoned by the governor. Nine plaintiffs who were among those injured or traumatized by the Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville, Va., in 2017, are suing the rally's organizers, alleging a plan and intent to engage in violence, but the defendants claim that the violence, in which one counterprotester died, was justified by self-defense. People have the right to self-defense when they reasonably believe there is an imminent threat of harm, whether or not they are right. It is possible to mistake a realistic prop gun for a real weapon, for instance. Some statutes, however, stipulate that someone cannot claim self-defense if they were the "initial aggressor" - in other words if they provoked or were doing something wrong at the time of the use of force. If an initial aggressor withdraws or backs away from an encounter they may regain their self-defense claim. The aggressor must also pose a threat of imminent harm. It is provocation if you assault someone without justification. If you ask for an explanation of offensive words, address a sensitive subject, engage in an inconsiderate act, or travel near someone, it does not constitute provoking an encounter. In the Arbery case, According to defendants Gregory McMichael, Travis McMichael and neighbor William Bryan, they were pursuing Mr. Arbery as part of a citizen's arrest, and he was shot after trying to grab one of their guns. There is no mention of Mr. Arbery's voice in the proceedings, who may have had his self-defense claim. What makes the perception that Ahmaud Arbery would have lived if he had complied instead of reaching for a gun, and hence it was his duty to comply. It would be good framing for Ahmaud Arbery if three guys rolled up on him with guns, he didn't know what their intentions were? There has been a tendency in the United States to increase the right to self-defense rather than to protect those whose actions may harm others. As a result of "make my day" laws, people who harm intruders in their own homes are presumed to have acted in self-defense. Classic self-defense theory's "duty to retreat" has been undermined by laws requiring people who are in an area where they have a right to be to retreat, such as at a public protest, to retreat. Most states require prosecutors to demonstrate that the defendant did not act in self defense, rather than requiring defendants to demonstrate that they did. A new law in Utah, except for those accused of attacking a police officer, enables defendants to request a special hearing at which prosecutors must prove the accused was not acting in self-defense. Despite the expansion of the legal framework for self-defense, experts say it has left certain key concepts like the "initial aggressor" poorly defined. As part of the trial of George Zimmerman, Mr. Zimmerman was accused of killing Trayvon Martin. In 2012, while visiting relatives in a gated community. Mr. Zimmerman, who was Hispanic, was deemed the first aggressor by prosecutors. He followed Mr. Martin on foot and in his car before Mr. Martin knocked him down. Mr. Zimmerman initially identified Mr. Martin as suspicious. The jury disagreed and acquitted Mr. Zimmerman. Mr. Zimmerman was the only person armed in that case. In a situation where two strangers are armed, who is the "primary aggressor"? In the Kenosha trial, Mr. Rittenhouse, now 18, was armed with a semiautomatic rifle that he was not legally allowed to own. After he shot and killed a man who he believed was trying to grab his gun, as well as a man who hit him with a skateboard in an apparent attempt to stop him, a nearby paramedic named Gaige Grosskreutz raised his hands in the air. In that moment, Mr. Grosskreutz said this week, he believed Mr. Rittenhouse racked his rifle and refused to accept his surrender. Grosskreutz pointed his handgun toward Mr. Rittenhouse, although his concealed-carry permit had expi d. Mr. Rittenhouse fired one shot at Grosskreutz. Both Grosskreutz and Rittenhouse said they were trying to save their own lives. According to philosopher Renee Jorgensen, who has researched self-defense and reasonable mistakes, one can look at the parking lot as a Wild West situation where neither man wrongs the other and neither is wronged by the other. As white men, Mr. Rittenhouse and Mr. Grosskreutz took the law into their own hands to varying degrees that night, offering themselves as private guardians of public safety. According to experts, self-defense, vigilantism, and policing are related practices rooted in deeply racialized American traditions in which Black people, particularly men, are seen as threats and white people are given the benefit of the doubt. In an analysis of homicides after Trayvon Martin's death, the Urban Institute discovered that white perpetrators and black victims were 281% more likely to be ruled justified than white perpetrators and white victims. In the Arbery case this past week, a defense lawyer objected to having high-profile Black pastors in the courtroom, arguing that their presence was “intimidating.” The standard of reasonable fear applies to both self-defense cases and police use-of-force cases, although officers are given greater leeway than civilians. Many police killings have been viewed as being the product of implicit bias due to the reasonable fear standard. Based on our research, scholars are considering ways to adapt self-defense laws to a nation awash in guns and counteract prevailing prejudices. GW law professor Cynthia Lee has begun work on a universal definition of what is considered an initial aggressor. Lee is known for her model statute on police use of force. A law like Wisconsin's would give prosecutors another option, allowing them to prove that the aggressor intended to provoke violence with a plan of retaliation, something that is difficult for prosecutors to do. There would also be special scrutiny when guns are involved, regardless of whether they were legal. Displaying a firearm or pointing it at another person is a threatening act that could reasonably lead to death or serious bodily harm, in my opinion. In closing, this writer would contend that walking around in public with a symbol of hate and white supremacy strapped to your shoulder period much less at a Black Lives Matter riot makes Rittenhouse the real initial aggressor in this case and we feel here in the House of Public Discourse that justice was not only not served in this case it was purposely circumvented by a racist judge.

Today on Sojourner Truth: One of two contentious and highly-watched court trials in U.S. history are now taking place, both of which will have an impact on race relations in the country. One of them is the trial of three white men accused of killing a young Black jogger last year in broad daylight in Georgia. Ahmaud Arbery was shot on February 23, 2020 by Gregory and Travis McMichael, and pursued by William Bryan. Today, we focus on the trial of Kyle Rittenhouse, the 18-year-old young white man who shot and killed Joseph Rosenbaum and Anthony Huber, as well as seriously wounding Gaige Grosskreutz. Our guest is Kieran Knutson, President of CWA Local 7250 and has been active in protests in solidarity with George Floyd and the Black Lives Matter movement. Kieran is based in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Also, on Saturday, November 13, the United Nations Climate Change Conference, known as COP26, came to a close. The conference, which took place in Glasgow, Scotland, has been described by many as a failure and a disappointment. Like many of the decisions that came out of the COP26 climate summit, the final agreement has been widely critiqued as being weak and ineffective. Our guest is Tom Goldtooth, the executive director of the Indigenous Environmental Network. Tom has been awarded with recognition of his achievements throughout the past 40 years as an activist for social change and indigenous-based just transition within the Indigenous and environmental and climate justice movements.

Today on Sojourner Truth: One of two contentious and highly-watched court trials in U.S. history are now taking place, both of which will have an impact on race relations in the country. One of them is the trial of three white men accused of killing a young Black jogger last year in broad daylight in Georgia. Ahmaud Arbery was shot on February 23, 2020 by Gregory and Travis McMichael, and pursued by William Bryan. Today, we focus on the trial of Kyle Rittenhouse, the 18-year-old young white man who shot and killed Joseph Rosenbaum and Anthony Huber, as well as seriously wounding Gaige Grosskreutz. Our guest is Kieran Knutson, President of CWA Local 7250 and has been active in protests in solidarity with George Floyd and the Black Lives Matter movement. Kieran is based in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Also, on Saturday, November 13, the United Nations Climate Change Conference, known as COP26, came to a close. The conference, which took place in Glasgow, Scotland, has been described by many as a failure and a disappointment. Like many of the decisions that came out of the COP26 climate summit, the final agreement has been widely critiqued as being weak and ineffective. Our guest is Tom Goldtooth, the executive director of the Indigenous Environmental Network. Tom has been awarded with recognition of his achievements throughout the past 40 years as an activist for social change and indigenous-based just transition within the Indigenous and environmental and climate justice movements.

Sam Goldman and Coco Das discuss the Kyle Rittenhouse trial in the proper context of the fascist movement he is a part of. Recommended reading: Coco's recent article The Rittenhouse Trial and Two Sides in Contention: A Beautiful Rising or Rising Fascism and Reflections on Kenosha by Paul Street. Follow Coco Das on Twitter at @Coco_Das and Paul at @Streetwriter17 We're continuing to pay special attention to the three trials with tremendous stakes: In Charlottesville, Virginia: The federal civil trial of 24 white supremacist groups and individuals who came to Charlottesville in August 2017 and unleashed fascist violence that led to the murder of Heather Heyer. In Brunswick, Georgia: the case against Gregory McMichael, Travis McMichael, and William Bryan who are on trial for hunting down and murdering Ahmaud Arbery, an unarmed 25-year-old Black man who was out on a jog. And in Madison, Wisconsin: The criminal murder trial for Kyle Rittenhouse who traveled with an AR-15 to a Black Lives Matter protest in Kenosha where he shot and killed two protesters and wounded another. All three concentrate the fascist mobs and threats of violence that are being unleashed to build the fascist movement and consolidate power & it reflects the ways in which there is an assault on the rule of law in this country and the most vicious overt white supremacy that threads it all together.

John Gresham Machen was born on July 28, 1881. It was prosperous time - the gilded age of America. Skyscrapers were going up as well as wages. The Machen family was affluent. John's mother Mary came from a wealthy family and was a devote Presbyterian. She was a voracious reader and had even published a work on the Bible and poetry. She was 21 years younger than her husband, Arthur Webster Machen, a successful lawyer and an Episcopalian. But despite the couple's different Christian affiliations, Mary taught John along with her other two sons, the Westminster Shorter Catechism from an early age. The family attended Franklin Street Presbyterian Church, and in time, John came to make the Presbyterian Church his own. But in a twist of fate as only God could know, much of the Presbyterian church would one day make Machen their own. As an adolescent, he received a classical education and was taught in Greek and Latin. It would serve as formational to his future career as a New Testament scholar. At seventeen years of age, John enrolled at the newly founded, John Hopkins University where he excelled in his studies. In 1901 he decided to pursue Theology at Princeton University.After four years there, John found himself doing his post study in Germany - the very home of Protestantism. It was there that John learned under Professor and Lutheran Theologian, Wilhelm Herrmann. For better or worse, Herrmann was one of many Theologians in Europe greatly influenced by Immanuel Kant. In general, Herrmann's Theology viewed God as an ultimate power and source of goodness, but was less concerned with the accuracy or the inherency of the Christian Scriptures, or even the historicity of the person of Jesus. To make things more confusing for young Machen, Herrmann was a passionate and devoted Christian whose preaching deeply moved John's heart. Because of this, the young theology student had a hard time reconciling a real Christian faith that was not built upon historical and biblical truths. To Machen, Herrmann's philosophy of Christian faith was a bit illogical. John knew that a substantial and vibrant faith in Jesus should not be separated from what the Bible clearly revealed. History and Doctrine must be integrated. He would later write, “Christ died"--that is history; "Christ died for our sins"--that is doctrine. Without these two elements, joined in an absolutely indissoluble union, there is no Christianity.”(J. Gresham Machen, Christianity and Liberalism)While it tested his faith, it would seem that John's time in Germany only strengthened his convictions that modern or liberal theology was not just a different form of the historic Christian faith, but a growing threat to it. But even by this time in John's young life, he still seemed to be somewhat aimless concerning his career. In letters written to his parents, John conveyed that he found many fields of study to be intriguing and worth engaging in. He loved sports as well. Thus, the young, wealthy academic was not convinced that the life of a Theologian / Teacher or Pastor was a life he really wanted to pursue. But upon his return to the states in 1906, Machen had decided on a career having joined Princeton Seminary as an instructor in New Testament studies. And so began for John, not only a personal and spiritual struggle against the rising tide of Modernism's influence of Theology but an academic and vocational one as well.As the years past, Machen was becoming a notable New Testament scholar and one, even more rare, that could post a solid intellectual, historical, and exegetical defense for the foundations of the Christian Faith against the progressive theology that had spread and was continuing to infiltrate academia and churches all across America. And While Machen's influence and controversy became more widespread and although the Presbyterian Church in the United States of America (PCUSA) was growing more tolerant of Modernism, John was promoted as Princeton's Assistant Professor of New Testament studies in 1914 - on the eve of WW1.So just as soon as he advanced in Princeton, Machen left to help the war efforts in France. John didn't want to serve from the guarded position of a Chaplain, so he chose to work though the YMCA as a secretary. But for all practicality, he was a literal waiter, making and serving hot chocolate to the soldiers all day and night. While John was located near the front lines of the war, and was never in combat, he was close enough to the action to see death and suffering firsthand. Thankfully the war was relatively short lived and John left for home. But upon his return, another war was in full swing - a theological one in John's mind, that while it didn't destroy the human body, had every potential to destroy the soul. There were clearly two camps of Protestants now, each preaching two different and oppositional interpretations of the gospel. And in May of 1922, Baptist and modernist preacher, Harry Emerson Fosdick made that even more apparent by preaching a now famous sermon against his theological opponents entitled, “Shall the Fundamentalists Win?"And indeed, that was the question - one that John would try and answer. But frustratingly, it seemed that he would do it mostly alone. John was not only philosophically distressed at the open front that Modernist Theology posed to the Historic Christian faith, but personally disheartened, by the fact that he didn't see many others trying to defend it with him. The Conservative Church was largely apathetic which was leading to its ruin. He would later write, “The mass of the Church here is still conservative — but conservative in an ignorant, non-polemic, sweetness-and-light kind of way which is just meat for the wolves.”So, in continuing to shepherd the flock of God, Machen wrote the short but powerful book, Christianity and Liberalism in 1923. In the introduction, he clarified, “In my little book, Christianity and Liberalism, I tried to show that the issue in the Church of the present day is not between two varieties of the same religion, but, at bottom, between two essentially different types of thought and life.” A few years later, Machen wrote another similar book entitled, What Is Faith? In it, Machen tried to reveal that real Christian faith should not only capture one's heart and emotions but must engage one's mind and knowledge as well. Even though his books were received relatively well, there was more work to be done. So, besides teaching on weekdays, preaching on weekends, and publishing in the time between, Machen also took advantage of the air waves. The Radio was not even a decade old, and John made effective use of it. So much so, that by his numerous teachings on what makes Christianity authentically Christian, he became known as Dr. Fun-da-men-ta-lis or (The Dr. of the Fundamentals).But in the very midst of all of this, the more liberal Northern Presbyterians were doing their own work to break free from fundamentalism's long hold on their denomination. And in May of 1924, the Auburn Affirmation was dated and presented to the General Assembly - the authoritative body of the Presbyterian church. The Auburn Affirmation sought to liberate the Presbyterian Church from the requirements of those seeking ordination. Since the church's beginning, every ordained minister had to believe and confess five fundamentals of the Christian faith. 1. The Inerrancy of the Scriptures, 2. The Virgin birth of Jesus, and His deity, 3. The Substitutionary Atonement, 4. The bodily resurrection of Jesus, and 5. The authenticity of Jesus' miracles - (belief in the supernatural). Although the affirmation was authored by an eleven-member Conference Committee, it was signed by over twelve hundred ministers of the PCUSA, and supported by many other clergymen. The General Assembly convened to consider the affirmation and set about to probe deeper into the division within their church that had now been brewing for nearly 30 years.But just after this, in 1925, the American mood towards the Modernist / Fundamentalist theological controversy drastically changed over the Summer of that year. And it happened outside the walls of the Church.In July, William Jennings Bryan, the three time Democratic Presidential candidate, the Conservative Christian, and long time Presbyterian elder, participated in the highly publicized Scopes Trial - or the Scope's Monkey Trial. While the Trial technically debated the legality of teaching the theory of evolution in public schools, the case was much bigger than that. It highlighted, and nationalized the ongoing controversy of Liberal VS. Conservative, and Modernist VS. Fundamentalist. The aging Bryan represented the prosecution, arguing against evolution being taught in schools where the famed Clarence Darrow defended John Scope's right to instruct and teach the theory. But on the seventh day of the trial, Darrow unorthodoxly questioned Byran as a witness to basically defend the Bible, and the miracles described within it. Byran, although relatively well versed in the Bible, was not ready for this line of questioning - and it embarrassingly showed. The news coverage, namely led by Henry Mencken ridiculed and branded Bryan as a Southern, anti-intellectual, Bible believing dope. On the eight and last day of the trial, the jury took only nine minutes to deliberate. Although Mr. Scope's was found guilty on a technicality and fined one hundred dollars, the American public believed the media coverage that largely portrayed fundamentalist Christians as naive, rigid, and unscientific.William Bryan died five days after the trial in his sleep from a stroke. He was 65 years old.In the aftermath of the Scope's case, what was once a nation that had grown somewhat indifferent to theological fundamentalism had now become openly opposed to it. With the movement presently on the side of the Progressives in every aspect of the culture and now in the Church, (as the General Assembly ended up supporting the Auburn Affirmation), Machen and the many others like him, felt they had no place to go. Their belief in the foundational truths of the Christian Faith were not welcomed in the arts, or humanities. Worse, they were not welcomed in Princeton or even the PCUSA. So, with firmness of purpose, academic influence, and much financial help from his inheritance, Machen took the lead in founding Westminster Seminary in Philadelphia in 1929. He would teach New Testament there until his death, which sadly, wasn't too far away for the 48 year old professor.While the emergence of a Seminary that remained faithful to the historic and conservative doctrines of the faith was a success, there was still only one Presbyterian Church, to which all those “fundamentalists” reluctantly belonged. The new Seminary was no doubt an academic solution, but it was not an ecclesiastical one. And within only a few years after the new Seminary had opened, Machen saw more problems on the horizon of a church divided.That's because a certain theology sown must reap a certain practice. And sure enough, some missionaries from the PCUSA revealed that their work in foreign countries had less to do with the saving work of Jesus than it did spreading general Christian philosophy and ethics. In the wake of the Auburn Affirmation, many missionaries straightforwardly denied the deity of Christ, and therefore, His redemptive work, like novelist Pearl S. Buck who openly denied the core tenets of the gospel. Because of this, Machen could not, in good faith give the church's tithes to a missionary board that spread such unbiblical theology upon lost souls. Gresham wrote that the "missionary of liberalism” sought to spread "the blessings of Christian civilization (whatever that may be), and is not particularly interested in leading individuals to relinquish their pagan beliefs." (Christianity and Liberalism). Due to the two opposing groups of Christians inside their walls, the PCUSA clearly had two different missions. And so, in 1933 Machen, finally formed The Independent Board for Presbyterian Foreign Missions.While this new Foreign Missions Board was a victory, much like Westminster Seminary was, at least from the Conservative point of view, it was only another band aid applied to a much bigger and festering wound. Not only was the PCUSA, growing tired of being challenged on every level, but was now receiving less income from their tithes being split between two Missionary Agencies. They felt it was time to confront the new mission board head on. The General Assembly demanded that the members of the Independent Missions committee step down. This command was ignored - the conservatives in general believed that the Presbytery would not seriously punish other Presbyterians whose sole purpose was to preach the gospel. But they were wrong. In February and March of 1935, Machen was tried on six charges all related to his support for the Independent Board for Presbyterian Foreign Missions. Although he plead “Not Guilty”, the court not only denied his chance to defend himself against the accusations of disobedience, but ruled that their judicial resolution could not be challenged. Friend and colleague of Machen later wrote how wrong it was, “…that a Presbyterian court should thus have flouted the most elementary principles of justice, [and] That it happened can only be attributed to a shocking disregard of the basic Protestant principles that God alone is Lord of the conscience and that the Scriptures are the only infallible rule of faith and practice by which all controversies are to be judged.” [-Stonehouse, Ned B., J. Gresham Machen: A Biographical Memoir (Grand Rapids: Wm. B. Eerdmans, 1954), pages 490-491.]Machen was officially and finally defeated. Not by the world, but by his own church, the PCUSA. He was tried, convicted, and suspended from his ministerial duties. In essence, his ordination from the church he grew up, taught, and served in was revoked.This unsurprisingly led to the culmination of the great Presbyterian split.Having done all to unite and yet warn his body of believers, concerning the dangers of Modern Theology, Machen, and the many with him, were convinced they had no other option than to officially start their own church - the Orthodox Presbyterian Church, or the OPC. It was launched in mid 1936. But while the controversial scholar, and defrocked church planter was busy with all his commitments, Machen was never too occupied to preach to anyone, anywhere. During the Westminster's Christmas break of the 1936, (just six months after the OPC began), John was asked to preach to some churches in North Dakota. Close friends of his lightly tried to dissuade him from going since he was already clearly tired and stressed from fresh church split. Yet, ever devoted to his work and to the preaching of the gospel, John did not heed their caution. He took the train into the inhospitable weather of the North Dakota winter. But there would be no train ride back.While the 55 year old, weathered many storms in his life up to this point, the 20 below 0 winds got to him and John soon fell ill with pneumonia. Just after Christmas day away from home, Machen was admitted to a Roman Catholic hospital in Bismarck. On the morning of New Year's Day 1937, John still gravely ill, was well enough to send a telegram to his close friend and Westminster colleague, John Murray. But later that day, around 7:30 p.m., John Gresham Machen finally succumbed to his chest infection and died. With little imagination, one could speculate that John's last days on earth was nothing more than an old, haggard, academic polemist, bitter at how he was handled by the church, saddened by the friends he lost, confused as to his poor health, complaining in all these things resentfully asking “why”? But it seems, anything like that was far from the truth. John, whom, rest and tranquility often eluded, was at peace. His last recorded words, from the telegram Mr. Murray received simply said, “I'm so thankful for [the] active obedience of Christ. No hope without it.” You see, John's hope and peace were nothing the world or the church could give or take away. His ultimate rest was solely in the person and redeeming work of Jesus. That is why Machen could write that he was “thankful” on the very day he died, probably alone, in an unfamiliar hospital in the harsh weather of North Dakota. All of John's work - his preachings, his teachings, his writings, viewed as both defensive and offensive, was not just convincing one about lifeless creeds or beliefs, or philosophical theories, and impersonal theology, but rather the personally deep relationship that can be had in his friend and savior Jesus. And for Machen, that was worth living for, fighting for, and dying for.Sources:1. Youtube: The Boswell Sisters 1930's music - USA Best female singers vol.1 (1930-1935) / ill rec2.
