May Reason Prevail

May Reason Prevail

FFRF's director of strategic response, Andrew L. Seidel, joins host Annie Laurie Gaylor for a lively dissection of the oral arguments last week in the Supreme Court's Bladensburg cross case, including clip excerpts of the arguments and Andrew's eye-witness impressions. Then they interview David Steketee about his exciting win Monday in FFRF's successful challenge of billions of tax dollars for church repairs, in clear violation of the N.J. state constitution. This week the Supreme Court refused to hear an appeal of FFRF's victory, making it final. Then we play a rousing, timely pep talk on the recent threats to secular government by Larry Decker, until recently the executive director of Secular Coalition for America, who spoke at FFRF's 2018 annual convention. By the way, you'll hear musical teasers of Ravel, an atheist who was born on March 7, 1875. We also give a shoutout to International Women's Day and the anniversary of the landmark McCollum v. Board of Education case (both on March 8.)
