World, a publication that strives to "report bad news because Christ's grace becomes most meaningful when we're aware of sin,"

Plenty to keep them busy

When asked when he had filed for divorce from his wife, Dixie, D’Souza answered, “Recently.”

Reminds me of the scene in Snow White when she asks the seven dwarfs when they last washed their hands. "Recently!"

how is this a scandal, really? right-wing evangelicals forgive almost anything if you say you've been born again/touched by the hand of god/raised them a lot of money/etc.

although the "you're asking me if i already filed for divorce.... yeah... hmmm....i'll get right on that...." is kind of LOL.

Well that first link is from World mag, v. much an evangelical publication, and it sounds like there were people who pretty much flat out told him from the get-go he was not exactly in a state of grace.

I sought out advice about whether it is legal to be engaged prior to being divorced and I was informed that it is.

"Hey, you, is this legal?"

"Uh, maybe?"

"Great, thanks!"

Ned Raggett, Thursday, 18 October 2012 03:33 (eleven years ago) link

This has more of a back-and-forth, with the author of the original article responding in turn:

http://www.christianitytoday.com/ct/2012/october-web-only/dinesh-dsouza-denies-infidelity.html

Ned Raggett, Thursday, 18 October 2012 03:36 (eleven years ago) link

Hahaha okay that article has an AMAZING bit:

When CT asked D'Souza directly for his response to charges of infidelity, he responded: "It's absolutely not the case, um, that, um, that, um, um, you know, it's.... Look, the issue here is that World is attributing to me an admission that I never made—is attributing to me a quotation that I never said. That to me is the problem. … They are just claiming based upon my non-assertion that I did something that I didn't do."

Ned Raggett, Thursday, 18 October 2012 03:36 (eleven years ago) link

Haha that's gold.

"The approach in the article ... is a clear effort to destroy me and my career," D'Souza said. "To me, that is a kind of viciousness masquerading as righteousness"

an "approach" he is ah intimately familiar with. of course he probably considers karma a pagan concept

But D’Souza wasn’t embraced by the evangelical tribe just because he affirms the creeds and C.S. Lewis. What made CT and King’s College and the rest of mainstream evangelicalism decide that D’Souza was one of us was his political history — a former policy aide in the Reagan White House, D’Souza is fiercely opposed to abortion, gay rights, feminism and progressive taxation.

As Sarah Posner said, “D’Souza’s … rise in the evangelical world is due in no small part to his conspiracy-minded claims about President Obama’s ‘Kenyan, anti-colonial behavior.’”

Yes, conspiratorial warnings about Africans and anti-colonialism contributed to D’Souza’s legitimacy among evangelicals.

Loving how d'Souza was all 'libel!' and CT went back to the principals in the original story who said, "Nope, World reported it accurately."

to be fair, it probably is legal. I mean "engaged" isn't really a legal status, so I don't see why it would be illegal to be engaged while still legally married.
