Hostility to religion in America: Next FOT

Justin Butterfield

Every year, First Liberty, formerly Liberty Institute, publishes a document, “Undeniable, the Survey of Hostility to Religion in America,” where each instance of religious hostility in the United States is documented. Tuesday we will have one of the authors of that document Justin Butterfield will return to Faith On Trial to discuss the latest instances of that hostility and what is being done to counter them.

Justin, senior counsel for First Liberty, is a graduate of Harvard Law School and practices primarily in the area of religious liberty. He co-authored two scholarly articles: “The Light of Accountability: Why Partisan Elections Are the Best Method of Judicial Selection,” published in The Advocate, and “The Parsonage Exemption Deserves Broad Protection,” published in the Texas Review of Law & Politics.

So join Deacon Mike Manno and Gina Noll as they discuss “Undeniable” and other issues of interest at 9 a.m. Tuesday on Iowa Catholic Radio 1150 AM; 88.5 & 94.5 FM and streaming on IowaCatholicRadio.com. The program will be rebroadcast at 9 p.m.
