Ep299: The Freedom From Religion Foundation Defends Separation of Church and State

Are lines between church and state blurring even further in today's social, cultural, and political climate?

Mormonish Podcast is joined by Dan Barker , Co President of the Freedom From Religion Foundation and Douglas Hendricks, President of the Salt Lake Chapter of the FFRF, to discuss the topic of church v. state and all the nuance in between, with a special emphasis on church v. the state of Utah.

According to the Freedom From Religion Foundation, the history of Western civilization shows us that most social and moral progress has been brought about by persons free from religion. In modern times, the first to speak out for prison reform, for humane treatment of the
mentally ill, for abolition of capital punishment, for women’s right to vote, for death with dignity for the terminally ill, and for the right to choose contraception, sterilization and abortion have been
freethinkers, just as they were the first to call for an end to slavery.

The Foundation works as an umbrella for those who are free from religion and are committed to the cherished principle of separation of state and church.

You won't want to miss this important discussion.
