Show notes:
In the first segment, our panelists discuss the delicate balance Europe faces as it seeks to uphold democratic principles while accommodating its growing cultural diversity. Recent incidents, including Quran burnings and debates about anti-blasphemy laws, highlight the challenge of preserving liberal norms amid shifting cultural dynamics.
In the second segment of the show, we explore the court case Loe v. Walz, which centers on Minnesota’s amendment to the Post Secondary Enrollment Options Act. The amendment excludes religious schools, impacting students who seek a Christ-centered education. Our panel delves into the implications and challenges posed by this change in the law.
