Gaffes Continue to Show Media's Ignorance of Religion

It's become increasingly clear that many in our nation's elite media know little to nothing about religion—Christianity in particular.

This is a disturbing trend for the future of our country.

A long list of theological gaffes by The New York Times over the years was recently catalogued in an insightful New York Post editorial by Mark Hemingway.

Among the Times' errors was an article in 2013 that referred to Easter as a celebration of Jesus' resurrection into heaven. It soon issued a correction, since Jesus did not immediately ascend to heaven after resurrection—that was weeks later.
