How Political is Too Political?
The previous show looked at intramural questions facing the Christian church. This show the focus turns to intermural questions, again using the National Day of Prayer as a case study. How inclusive should it be? For example, should people of all races be invited? Both sexes? Don’t worry, the questions get harder! What about those with divergent sexual “orientations” or “gender identities”? How about people who don’t have legal standing to be in the United States? Or skinheads and white supremacists? Or “militant tree huggers”? These examples are offered “tongue in cheek”, of course.
