The Pope is coming! The pope is Coming! That’s right, ladies. Hold onto your panties. The pope everyone loves to love is coming to Gotham City this September. According to […]
Thanks to one of NNY’s readers for passing along this link to a Religious News Service article discussing the ethics behind a few spiritually and politically motivated “dumpster divers,” otherwise […]
“Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, […]
According to the NY Post, last week the world’s second biggest belieber to Anne Frank (and hottest lesbian), Justin Beiber, was out and about looking for a NYC swimming pool […]
Thanks to Gothamist (via Ephemeral NY) on this one. Just when you thought this local thing was gonna fizzle (wait…someone thinks “local” is gonna fizzle?), it turns out NYC has […]
Taking that symbol of cathartic hope and making it a symbol of the event itself has got a new cheerleader this week: Rep. Michael Grimm (R-SI) said he’s pushing for […]

So-called hipster Christianity as a thing in and of itself is a fairly new phenomenon.
