Douglas Wilson's influence over Moscow Idaho has not been without controversy.
In a 2021 Vice exposé, former members of "Christ Church" alleged that ministers had encouraged them to stay in abusive relationships.
That tracks with Wilson’s 1999 book, "Fidelity: How to Be a One-Woman Man",
in which he wrote,“The sexual act cannot be made into an egalitarian pleasuring party.
A man penetrates, conquers, colonizes, plants.
A woman receives, surrenders, accepts.”For that reason, Wilson wrote, the dynamic of a #dominant #man and a #submissive #woman is
“an erotic necessity.”(Wilson called allegations of the church urging women to stay in abusive relationships “categorically false.”)
Wilson has also promoted another form of dominance.
In the 1996 book "Southern Slavery: As It Was",
Wilson and his co-author argued that the master-slave dynamic was “a relationship based upon mutual affection and confidence,”
-- and “there has never been a multi-racial society which has existed with such mutual intimacy and harmony in the history of the world” as that of the antebellum South.(In a 2020 blog post, Wilson said he now allows that while “the benevolent master is not a myth, the idea of the horrific taskmaster is no abolitionist myth either.”)
When I asked Wilson about his controversial statements, he likened himself to a chef who strategically deploys jalapeno peppers:
“Then some of my enemies online have combed through my writings, have gathered up all the jalapenos and put them on one Ritz cracker.”
In July, at the "National Conservatism Conference"
in Washington, DC, Wilson shared the stage with Sens. Josh #Hawley (R-Mo.),
Ron #Johnson (R-Wis.),
and Mike #Lee (R-Utah),
as well as #Vance,
who auditioned his “America is a people” bit a week before his star turn at the GOP convention.Wilson agrees with Vance’s suggestion that children should be allotted votes
-- managed by their parents.“I would like to see elections where households vote,” he told me.
Men, as the heads of households, would actually cast the votes.
Though he believes that women’s suffrage was “a mistake,”
he would allow a special exception for single mothers.Wilson offered the crowd a few one-liners
(“I’m a Presbyterian, not a Lesbyterian”),but mostly, he talked about the persecution of Christians:
“It used to be that the sexually troubled had to keep their kinks hidden away in the closet,” he mused.
“Now it is the conservative Christian who needs to keep his virtues hidden in the recesses of the closet.”
After the "National Conservatism Conference", Wilson appeared at the "Believers’ Summit",
which was headlined by #Trump and hosted by the conservative political group #Turning #Point #USA.But it’s not just conferences and interviews with the likes of #Tucker #Carlson where Wilson promotes his ideas.
He has a blog, a podcast, and a YouTube channel, thanks mostly to the urging of his children and younger colleagues.
One example is that every year since 2018, Wilson has been celebrating what he calls
No Quarter November:“The month where we say out loud what everyone is thinking.”
In a 2023 video, which was the brainchild of one of his sons, Wilson sits at a sumptuously appointed Thanksgiving table,
surrounded by his children and grandchildren,
and addresses the camera.“If you think of my blog as a shotgun,” he says,
“this is the month when I saw off all my typical, careful qualifications and blast away with a double-barreled shorty.”His wife, clad in an apron, brings out a turkey and places it in front of him,
and then the tranquil scene is interrupted by a blaring alarm and a glowing red “perimeter breach” sign.Wilson excuses himself, heads to his garage, and straps on a #flamethrower.
After using it to light a cigar, he aims the fire at cardboard cutouts of Disney princesses Elsa and Ariel, and the logos of Instagram, TikTok, Twitter, and Netflix.
Wilson’s willingness to make campy content sets him apart, says Rachel Tabachnick,
an extremism researcher who has been studying Christian nationalism for decades.“Instead of a crotchety old guy talking about stoning people, he’s like, super cool,” she says. “He’s witty.”

Like all self-respecting millennials, the TheoBros have little tolerance for boomers,
with the exception of their patriarch, #Douglas #Wilson,
a 71-year-old pastor in Moscow, Idaho.When he was younger, Wilson imagined himself going into the family business
—Christian bookstores
—but after a stint in the military, he moved to Moscow in 1975 to study philosophy at the University of Idaho,
where he became involved with the "Jesus People",
a kind of mashup of evangelical and hippie culture.He helped found "Christ Church",
the congregation over which he still presides and that regularly draws crowds of 1,300.Wilson has since turned the college town into his own Christian kingdom.
He helped found "New Saint Andrews College",
the "Canon Press" publishing house,
and "Logos School",
one of the nation’s first classical Christian schools,where students exclusively study the Western canon.
Wilson embraced #Calvinism in 1988 and remade his church from the freewheeling "Jesus People" hub into something far more sober and buttoned-up,
where women couldn’t be church leaders and the only music allowed was hymns and psalms.In the early 1990s, Wilson helped launch the "Association of Classical Christian Schools", which had 502 member institutions across the United States as of March 2023.

The TheoBros’ strategy is bottom-up:
They aim to convert small American towns into Christian enclaves.
But it is also top-down:
Some are working to position themselves close to the locus of federal power.
#Vance, a Catholic convert married to a Hindu, would seem an unlikely hero for a movement of devout Protestants who believe in a homogeneous America.
But over the last few years, his political orbit has increasingly overlapped with that of the TheoBros
—so much so that to careful observers, his public echoes of their ideas are beginning to sound less like coincidence and more like dog whistlesAnd those dog whistles signal the major themes of this election:
#hypermasculinity, declining #birthrates, #ethnonationalism
—and no small measure of carefully curated #misogyny.If you want to know some of the actors who red-pilled Vance, or at least those who flock to him, you need to meet the #TheoBros.
With no meetings, website, or an explicit statement of faith that unifies their beliefs,
the TheoBros are not an official organization.They identify with 16th-century French theologian John #Calvin, who spawned a rigid and deterministic form of Protestantism.
Julie Ingersoll, a University of North Florida religion scholar, traces the current movement back to
R.J. #Rushdoony, an Armenian American philosopher who popularized the idea of Christian nationalism
(and #homeschooling) in the early 1970s.Out of Rushdoony’s movement emerged two camps:
♦️the #charismatic Christians, now known as the #New #Apostolic #Reformation,
♦️and the #reformed Protestants, which include the #TheoBros.
They share the goal of creating a Christian nation, says Ingersoll,
but differ on a key point of theology:Adherents of the New Apostolic Reformation believe that God is still speaking directly to people through pastors who have declared themselves #apostles and #prophets.
The TheoBros, meanwhile, believe that God said all he needed to say in the #Bible.
Many TheoBros are also proponents of #postmillennialism, the idea that believers can ➡️ hasten Jesus’ return by fighting against the satanic forces of liberal excess.
TheoBro #Aaron #Renn, an Accenture consultant turned Christian pundit, has described our current era as a
“negative world,”
where Christians are persecuted for their beliefs.#Andrew #Isker, another Bro, calls it “trashworld.”

I find the names interesting. They're way cooler than the names men gave to us when I was coming up.
'The group of girls turning 12 or 13 will now be called “Builders of Faith,” those turning 14 or 15 will be “Messengers of Hope,” and those 16 or older will be “Gatherers of Light.'
I did notice an interesting tier-structure, which mirrors the levels of heaven.
You've got your low-level laborers at the bottom, building shit. Then there's the Messengers, middle-managers who get a bit more pay for far less work. Then there's the Gatherers who are just gathering light, which is the lightest work of all, enlightened youngsters ruling over their younger, less-equal sisters in Zion.
I'd love to see the men's youth group counterpart names to represent the eternally opposing gender roles.
I suggest:
Foot Soldiers of Faith
Prophetic Preachers of Hope
Big Game Hunters of Lighthttps://www.sltrib.com/religion/2026/04/25/lds-young-women-president-emily/
(Clearly this one's lit a blog post in me.)

CW: SA, Mormonism, and a very angry rant
From the story: 'A year ago, the Trump administration repealed previous guidelines that generally prevented law enforcement officers from entering churches in search of immigrants lacking permanent legal status. A few days after the announcement, the church’s governing First Presidency stated that church buildings “should not be used to help shield individuals from law enforcement.”'
ahem.
*cracks knuckles*
[Warning: Yelling incoming.]
THEN WHY THE FUCK IN CASES OF SEXUAL ABUSE DO YOU OFFICIALLY COUNSEL BISHOPS TO ONLY INFORM LAW ENFORCEMENT IF STATE LAW REQUIRES IT???
Fucking fucking fuck. What a bunch of abject racist authoritarian pedo-harboring cowards.
So in honor of this occasion, I will link to the FLOODLIT database, a record of the hundreds of *documented* sexual abuse cases that have been enabled and/or covered up by the LDS Church:
And The Mormon Alliance Case Reports, which were reporting on this systemic issue in the 1990s (for which its author was excommunicated):
https://mormon-alliance.org/casereports/volume1/v1.htm
And my own testimony that I have read or heard literally *thousands* of personal sexual abuse stories that happened within LDS contexts where either secrecy was passively maintained due to the high levels of shame created by Church rhetoric, or was actively maintained by official leadership decisions, which include, among other things, punishing victims, letting perps go, and placing perps back into positions of power or over new potential victims. I have sourced these stories from memoirs, many forums including Reddit, Facebook, or been personally told these stories, even while still LDS.
The LDS Church is a sex abuse factory, and this quote from the Church really fucking pisses me off. We can't possibly use the church to shield individuals whose only crime is existing in an unauthorized location, but by hell, if you hurt kids, well, it's game on boys!
Prophet Oaks full on agreeing with Donald "Epstein" Trump, says "Throw 'em to the pigs!"
You'll never find any top LDS leadership in the Epstein files because they don't need his overpriced island. They've got one of their own, right in the open in Utah!
After all this time, 25 years out, I don't think the SA issue in the LDS Church will ever not absolutely enrage me.

Spirituality & Religious Studies @spiritualityreligiousstudies.wordpress.com@spiritualityreligiousstudies.wordpress.com ·Samaritanism
Samaritanism is an Abrahamic monotheistic, ethnic religion. It comprises the collective spiritual, cultural, & legal traditions of the Samaritan people.
Often preferring to be called Israelite Samaritans, who originated from the Hebrews & Israelites. They began to emerge as a relatively distinct group after the Kingdom of Israel was conquered by the Neo-Assyrian Empire during the Iron Age. The Neo-Assyrian Empire was the 4th, & penultimate, stage of ancient Assyrian history.
Central to their continuity as an Indigenous Heritage in the Holy Land is keeping the Patriarchal & Mosaic covenant as specified in the Samaritan Torah. Samaritans believe this is the original & unchanged version of the Pentateuch (which is the first 5 books of the Hebrew & Christian bible) since Moses & the Israelites at Mount Sinai.
The Abisha Scroll is traditionally held by the community to be the oldest existing scroll written by Abisha, son of Aaron the priest, around 3,000 years ago based on living tradition. However, Jewish & Christian theologians have made attempts to dispute this claim which proved unsatisfactory.
Judaism claims Samaritanism developed right alongside their own religion. Samaritanism asserts itself as the true preserved form of the monotheistic faith that the Israelites kept under Moses. Samaritan belief also holds that the Israelites’ original holy site was Mount Gerizim, near Nablus, the State of Palestine (West Bank).
They also believe that Jerusalem only attained importance under Israelite dissenters who had followed Eli (In the Book of Samuel, Eli was a priest & judge of the Israelites in the city of Shiloh) to the city of Shiloh.
The Israelites who remained at Mount Gerizim would become the Samaritans in the Kingdom of Judah. Mount Gerizim is revered by Samaritans as the location where the Binding of Isaac occurred. In comparison to the Jewish belief that it occurred at Jerusalem’s Temple Mount.
Today there are only about 900 registered communal members. This puts Samaritanism as 1 of the smallest ethnoreligious groups globally in the Abrahamic faiths. Samaritans believe that this is a prophecy fulfilled from the scriptures: “You’ll be left few in number.”
Though they hope for a future time when a prophet like Moses known as the “Taheb” (Restorer) will perform 3 signs, namely the jar of manna, the staff of Moses, & Cherubim, or the Golden Candlestick.
This time period they believe is when an era of Divine Favor would return, & the hidden tabernacle of Moses would miraculously be revealed for the Israelite people & Mount Gerizim is restored to its former glory.
Samaritans trace their history, as a separate entity, to a period soon after the Israelites’ arrival into the “Promised Land.” Samaritan historiography traces the schism to High Priest Eli leaving Mount Gerizim, where stood the 1st Israelite altar in Canaan, & building a competing altar in nearby Shiloh.
The dissenting group of Israelites who followed Eli to Shiloh would be the ones who, in later years, would head south to settle in Jerusalem (the Jews). Whereas the Israelites who stayed on Mount Gerizim, in Samaria, would become known as the Samaritans.
Genetic studies in 2004 suggest that Samaritans’ lineages trace back to a common ancestor with Jews in the paternally-inherited Jewish high priesthood (Cohanim) temporally near to the period of the Assyrian conquest of the Kingdom of Israel. They’re probably descendants of the historical Israelite population. The Cohanim refers to the Jewish priestly class, male descendants of Aaron the priest.
The Hasmonean king, John Hyrcanus, destroyed the Mount Gerizim Temple & brought Samaria under his control around 120 BCE. This led to a long-lasting sense of mutual hostility between the Jews & Samaritans.
From this point, the Samaritans likely sought to consciously distance themselves from their Judean brethren. Both peoples came to see the Samaritan faith as a religion distinct from Judaism. By the time of Jesus, Samaritans & Jews deeply disparaged one another, as shown by Jesus’ Parable of the Good Samaritan.
The main beliefs of Samaritanism are:
- There’s 1 God, Yahweh, the same God recognized by the Jewish prophets.
- The Torah is the only true holy book & was given by God to Moses. The Torah was created before the creation of the world & whoever believes in it is assured a part in the world to come. The Torah’s status in Samaritanism as the only holy book causes them to reject the Oral Torah, the Talmud, & all the prophets & scriptures, except for a version of the Book of Joshua (which they don’t hold as Scripture), whose book in the Samaritan community is significantly different from the Book of Joshua in the Jewish “Bible.” Moses is considered to be the last of the line of prophets.
- Mount Gerizim, not Jerusalem, is the 1 true sanctuary chosen by God. The Samaritans don’t recognize the sanctity of Jerusalem & don’t recognize the Temple Mount, claiming instead that Mount Gerizim was the place where the Binding of Isaac took place.
- The Apocalypse, called “the day of vengeance,” will be the end of days. When an entity called the Taheb (basically the Jewish Messiah equal) that comes from the tribe of Joseph will come, be a prophet like Moses for 40 years & bring about the return of all the Israelites, following which the dead will be resurrected. The Tahib will then discover the tent of Moses’ Tabernacle on Mount Gerizim, & will be buried next to Joseph when he dies.
The Samaritans have retained the institution of a high priesthood & the practice of slaughtering & eating lambs on Passover Eve. They celebrated Pesach, Shavuot, & Sukkot. But they use a different method from that used in mainstream Judaism in order to determine the dates annually.
For example, Yom Teru’ah (the biblical name for Rosh Hashanah), at the beginning of Tishrei (This is the 1st month of the civil year & the 7th month of the ecclesiastical year in the Hebrew calendar.), isn’t considered a New Year as it is in Rabbinic Judaism.
Their Sabbath is observed weekly by the Samaritan community every week from Friday to Saturday, beginning & ending at sundown. For 24 hours, the families gather together to celebrate the rest day: all electricity with the exception of minimal lighting (kept on the entire day) in the house is disconnected, no work is done, & neither cooking nor driving is allowed.
The time is devoted to worship which consists of 7 prayer services, reading the weekly Torah portion, spending quality time with family, taking meals, rest & sleep, & visiting other members of the community.
Passover is particularly important in the Samaritan community, climaxing with the sacrifice of up to 40 sheep.
The Counting of the Omar remains relatively unchanged. The Counting of the Omar is a ritual in Judaism that consists of a verbal counting of each of the 49 days between the holidays of Passover & Shavuot. However, the week before Shavuot is a unique festival celebrating the continued commitment Samaritanism has maintained since the time of Moses.
During Sukkot, the Sukkah (the temporary hut built for use during Sukkot) is built INSIDE of houses, instead of OUTSIDE like mainstream Judaism. This Samaritan tradition is traced back to the persecution of the Samaritans during the Byzantine Empire.
The roof of the Samaritan Sukkah is decorated with citrus fruits & branches of palm, myrtle, & willow trees. This is in accordance with the Samaritan interpretation of the 4 species designated in the Torah for the holiday. The 4 species are 4 plants (the etrog, lulav, hadass, & aravah) mentioned in the Torah as being relevant to the Jewish holiday of Sukkot.
