The Supreme Court and The Cross: with Monica Miller Jul 02, 2019

Show notes

The U.S. Supreme Court just handed down a sobering 7-2 decision to protect the Bladensburg, Maryland "Peace Cross," a 40-foot religious symbol erected as a memorial to the veterans of WWI.
The Court's majority opinion declared that the cross' removal would constitute "hostility" to religion.
Monica Miller is Senior Counsel at the American Humanist Association. She actually argued the case at the Supreme Court. She joins Seth Andrews to talk about the implications.

Patriotism, Protest, and Plenty of Listener Calls Jun 18, 2019

Show notes

Many evangelical Christians hold to an authoritarian model for patriotism. In their eyes, leaders (appointed by their God) should be followed and rarely - if ever - questioned.
In this broadcast, we explore patriotism and protest, plus a potpourri of listener calls on whatever subjects they want to talk about.

Ridvan (Apostate Prophet on YouTube) has been the target of a concentrated flagging of his anti-Islam videos, and Twitter has banned both of his accounts: @ExMuslimProphet and @ApostateRidvan
