Show notes:
In the first segment, our panelists discuss how political divisions and heightened rhetoric are putting houses of worship at risk. The conversation highlights recent reports on increasing anti-Semitic and anti-Muslim incidents due to geopolitical tensions, emphasizing the vulnerability of religious institutions to physical threats.
In the second segment of the show, we explore the court case Catholic Charities Bureau, Inc. v. State of Wisconsin Labor and Industry Review Commission.
