  • “What Is Saving Your Life?” May 10
    “What Is Saving Your Life?” May 10, 2020 Psalm 31:1-5, 15-16 Westminster, Greenville Fifth Sunday of Easter Ben Dorr ********************************************************** A number of years ago, the pastor Scott Black Johnston was leading a Sunday School class for 7th graders. He was a guest participant, and the topic was something like “Ask the pastor any question you want”. So one of the teenagers asked: “Is Jesus the only way to salvation?” Scott said he would give them his answer to that question. But first, he wanted to ask them a different question. “What do you think Jesus wants to save you from?” he asked the class. One of the 7th graders said, “Hell.” And Scott says that while he believes the answer was honest, he was also a bit suspicious. Like that was the kind of answer that he imagined a 7th grader THOUGHT the pastor of the church was expecting…better give the “correct” answer, saved from hell, that’s what God does. So Scott reframed the question: “If God was on the ball, what would God save you from?” Like…right now? Suddenly, Scott says, the conversation got VERY interesting. 2 One young man offered up that God could really help by saving him from an upcoming math test. Then another classmate said, “Pressure.” And another said, “My parents’ expectations.” Then another member of the class, a shy kid, said—almost in a whisper: “Fear. I want God to save me from my fears.”1 ****** If you had been in that class, how would you have answered the question? Our Psalmist for today writes: “In you, O Lord, I seek refuge… Be a rock of refuge for me, a strong fortress to save me… Let your face shine upon your servant; save me in your steadfast love.” Save me…it’s a recurring request through the book of Psalms.

  • The Weird History of Usamerican Fascism: a Guide (1979-2019) Phd in Critical and Cultural Theory 2019 M.C
    The Weird History of USAmerican Fascism: A Guide (1979-2019) PhD in Critical and Cultural Theory 2019 M.C. McGrady Summary The future, as ever, can be read in comic books. Foretold by the Dark Age of Comics, the doom that now comes to Earth arrives in the form of self-realizing eschatologies, horrors born out of the rutting between unfettered capitalism and its favorite child, technological hubris. When the Big Two comic book publishers began hiring British and Irish authors en masse over the course of the 1980s, these writers brought with them a critical eye sharpened by the political and economic cruelty of the decade. The victims of the Iron Lady came to the New World and set their sights on the empire of the Teflon President, using superhero stories to explore the ideological weapons deployed in the service of global capitalism. The Weird History of USAmerican Fascism tracks the interrelated networks of popular culture and fascism in the United States to demonstrate the degree to which contemporary USAmerican politics embodies the future that the fictional dystopias of the past warned us about. Although the trans-Atlantic political developments of 2016 and their aftermath have sparked a widespread interest in a resurgent Anglophone fascism and its street-level movements – seen most obviously in the loose collection of white supremacists known as the ‘alt- right’ – this interest has been hamstrung by the historical aversion to a serious study of popular and ‘nerd’ culture during the twentieth century. By paying attention to the conceptual and interpersonal networks that emerged from the comic books and videogames of the 1980s, The Weird History of USAmerican Fascism fills a critical lacuna in cultural theory while correcting recent oversights in the academic analysis of contemporary fascism, providing an essential guide to the past, present, and future of the bizarre world of USAmerican politics.
