Joan Esposito is joined by John Fugelsang, actor, comedian, podcaster and radio host, TV pundit, and author of the forthcoming book “Separation of Church and Hate: A Sane Person’s Guide to Taking Back the Bible from Fundamentalists, Fascists, and Flock-Fleecing Frauds.”
The book addresses the misuse of religion to justify cruelty and support for Donald Trump and aims to help readers expose the hypocrisy in fundamentalist Christianity on issues like feminism, abortion, LGBTQ rights, and immigration. Fugelsang shared personal anecdotes, including the religious backgrounds of his parents, and highlighted the need for a coalition of believers and non-believers to combat toxic Christian influences. He also mentioned plans for a comedic tour, including a potential stop in Chicago.
