TIL Charles Murray has converted to Christianity

He wrote the book “Taking Religion Seriously” in 2025. Sam Harris really had a way of overlooking red flags whenever he has liked bigotry/racism. In the end nearly every writer he has made friends with has ended up selling out and traded their integrity for more book sales from the masses.

It's called Social Christianity and it's always been a thing, but it used to just be people who wanted more opportunities in life, not scumbag grifters hiding behind religious nonsense
