On this episode of Polemics Report for April 13th, 2021, our Bulldogmatic Bible Study hangs out for the program! JD and David discuss effeminacy and doctrinal category confusion in evangelical ranks using Dave Miller as an example, and discuss the finer points of church discipline and the role Jesus gave

Why I’m Not Taking the COVID-19 Vaccine: A Layman Responds

Recently, The Reverend (ahem) Russell Moore was interviewed by John Yang on PBS News Hour, where Moore explained that evangelical hesitance to get the COVID-19 vaccine was based on ignorance and selfishness, not on religious or scientific convictions. A few days later, megachurch pastor James Emery White described himself as

Birds of a Feather: Karen Swallow Prior Defends Beth Moore, Slanders the Church

In an op-ed published at Religion News Service, SEBTS professor, notorious functional egalitarian, and suspected witch Karen Swallow Prior blamed the Southern Baptist Convention (her denomination) for “leaving women to fend for themselves” and basically forcing Beth Moore to leave rather than see Moore’s ministerial ambitions stifled. If this was

Podcast: Snake Orgies, Empathy, and Hangin’ on “The Block”

On this episode of Polemics Report for March 16th, 2021, JD talks about Tim Keller blaming conservative evangelicals for their inevitable removal from the public arena, Russell Moore falling all over himself to defend Beth Moore, Tim Keller, and Rick Warren, and Kyle J.

Grace to You Exposes Evangelicalism’s Gentle and Lowly Soft Underbelly

Dane Ortlund, senior pastor of Naperville Presbyterian Church and son of woke Gospel Coalition contributor Ray Ortund (who famously told Christians to read the Koran after the Bible), released his book Gentle and Lowly in April of 2020 to near-universal acclaim and it became (at least in evangelical circles) a

Podcast: Does Jordan Peterson Know He Needs Jesus?

Podcast: Beth Moore Finally Goes Home

On this episode of Polemics Report for March 9th, 2021, JD talks about the blessing of Beth Moore finally leaving the SBC and evangelical elites like David French and Russell Moore throwing faithful believers under the bus for being skeptical of the vaccine. In the patrons-only portion, JD discusses the

Russell Moore, Son of the Devil

Russell Moore is nothing if not predictable. Moore has never been one to pass up an opportunity to slander and deride the bride of Christ. We can further add his record of standing silently while the world attacks the church. But the trifecta comes with his efforts to elevate himself

Julie Roys Beclowns Herself Going After John MacArthur (Again)

I hesitated to even write this article, lest we continue to increase attention for what Phil Johnson so accurately called “scandalmongering twaddle.” The start of this was covered last week, but many of the following points can’t be made often enough. Julie Roys, the long-discredited pal of conservative stalwarts (ahem)

Reckless Movie: More Theatrical Heresy on the Way

Paramount Pictures has acquired the rights to the theological trainwreck that is 2018’s Reckless Love by Cory Asbury. The movie will be produced by DeVon Franklin, who famously commercialized the heresy-promoting story of Colton Burpo going to heaven in the 2014 film Heaven is for Real. Franklin apparently has yet
