C.S. Lewis’ "Liar, Lunatic, or Lord" trilemma is a rhetorical trap, not a real argument. It ignores history, oversimplifies Jesus, and relies on false choices. Let’s break down why this famous apologetic falls apart. Read on Substack here: open.substack.com/pub/edgarroo... #relpol

My article is now open access!
It analyzes religious institutions' diverse responses to democratic backsliding and regime survival, with religious competition and historical pro-democratic roles as the main explanatory factors.

As there seems to be some minor confusion on how to post on the politics and religion subfeed of polisky, I have updated the keywords. They are now:
polrel | politics&religion | relir | relpol
If you are an authorized poster on polisky, you can now post to polrel using any of the above!

Hi there #polisky folks.
Following on @ortutt.bsky.social excellent example, I have (finally) updated the Politics and Religion subfeed to pick up hashtags rather than be limited to keywords from members of the old polisky feed.
Use hashtags #polrel #relpol #relir or #politics&religion to post!

Screenshot of the panel description: Religion, secularization and party politics in the 21st century The panel examines the religious-secular cleavage in party competition in democratic political systems. Until recently, political scientists assumed that due to the ongoing secularization process in Western societies religion would no longer play a significant role as a relevant issue in party competition. However, current debates show that the role of religion and religiosity in the public sphere (headscarves, crucifixes, muezzin calls etc.) has become more visible again. One reason for this is the increasing religious pluralization, as Muslim communities in particular have established themselves in societies that have portrayed themselves as Christian or secular. In addition, right-wing populist parties are gaining ground in parliaments with their anti-immigration and/or Islamophobic positions.
