Hurry Up, Harper's

Could Harper’s‘ timing have been better? Just as the California Supreme Court issues its landmark ruling on same-sex marriage, the latest issue hits the stands with a major new essay by one of the best religion writers we know, Garret Keizer, on the Episcopal Church’s angst of homosexuality. Unfortunately, Harper’s‘ website isn’t as well-tuned — they’ve failed to post this most timely of articles online. So go down to the newsstand and fork over a few dollars, regardless of your views on the issue, for a larger perspective guaranteed to rise above the cable news rabble. Here are two other Keizer gems: “The Reverent and the Rude,” published right here on The Revealer, and “Left, Right, and Wrong,” in Mother Jones.
