articles of faith

All of these goals should be articles of faith in a democratic society.

That is, these crises that you mention are now articles of faith.

During the most recent Republican administration, President Trump slashed environmental regulations, and right-wing media outlets regularly parrot fossil fuel industry talking points as ideological articles of faith.

There’s real consolation to be found in these articles of faith, but there are also obvious limitations; the world and its meanings, Phạm seems to suggest, will never conform to a single tradition or doctrine.

It turns the stage over to young religious conservatives, whose ideologies and articles of faith are presented without apology or indictment.
