To the Law and the Courts: Take Religious Freedom Seriously (with Frank Beckwith)

In our culture in the US today, religion is viewed as, at best, a harmless hobby, and at worst, a danger to society that must be marginalized. Join this conversation with Scott and church-state specialist and philosopher, Dr. Frank Beckwith, as they discuss how the courts and the law can take religious beliefs more seriously and protect religious freedom more consistently. This conversation comes out of his recent book, Taking Rites Seriously: Law, Politics and the Reasonableness of Faith. 

Dr. Frank Beckwith is Professor of Philosophy & Church-State Studies at Baylor University. He is the author of numerous books and articles on the intersection of Christian faith, law and politics.
