Thank you for providing such thoughtful commentary. My faith is one of community and love and has never had a higher power other than that. And yet listening to you and following your show has given me a renewed sense that especially as we are moving forward in Trump 2.0 Our people can come together in community and protect our most vulnerable.
I was raised Presbyterian, but I’m now a Unitarian Universalist. I find this podcast very helpful. There is no preaching and no swearing. They give accurate information and great suggestions for supporting the separation of church and state in the United States. They believe, and I agree, that separating church and state strengthens both.
How does 45 min go so fast. I could listen to each episode for hours. The clear explanations. The calming presence even just through speaking. The knowledge I have gotten from listening. I just can’t praise this podcast and the BJC enough. I love being Christian and I love this as a resource to remind people that there are Christians that think like me.
I love the law, and am a person of faith. It is so very helpful to have such clear thinking and insights into what is properly our civic life, and our religious life. Thank you for your efforts to ensure religious freedom, separation of church and state, in our times. So very helpful! Thank you!
I so appreciate people like you who are thoughtful Christians yet recognize the sacred importance of keeping religion out of our secular government. Alito was outraged that anti-gay potential jurors were excused. He raises this to a level of massive discrimination against Christians. So please tell Mr Alito that as a pediatrician, I have been excused from juries 3 times simply because of my profession: a personal injury case, a child abuse case, and a drug charge against a minor. So what does Al... more
