Show notes:
In the first segment, our panelists discuss the unlikely coalition that passed the Religious Freedom Restoration Act (RFRA) in 1993, highlighting its broad support and the challenges of achieving such consensus in today’s polarized political climate.
In the second segment of the show, we delve into the legal case of Holt v. Payne, where Muslim inmates fight for their religious rights in prison, examining the complexities of religious accommodation within correctional institutions.
About the Show: Faith & Politics is a show dedicated to discussing issues surrounding the intersection of Church, State and politics and the examination of whether you are allowing your faith to shape your politics or your politics starting to shape your faith. What do you do when God and government come face to face?
