Rescuing Jesus and America from the Religious Right
(NOTE: Some of these podcasts were recorded during the Bush Administration and the material is rather dated. However the overarching danger presented by the Religious Right still exists, and the information contained in these podcasts is still relevant. New episodes [2010] will be identified by RJ 2.0 in the title.) Jesus instructed us to be righteous, to be meek, to be pure of heart, to be merciful, and to be peacemakers. How well do you think that the members of the religious right are doing at following his instructions?

I thought that this would be the final episode of this series (it turns out that I was wrong [09/09/2010]). It does still, however, introduce a new series entitled: "Atheists for Jesus: Rescuing Jesus from the Bible." New episodes of this series will be coming soon and will be identified by "RJ 2.0" in their titles.
An introduction to the newest incarnation of this series. And, a critical examination of the claims by folks such as Sarah Palin, Glenn Beck, Bill O'Reilly, and David Barton that the United States is a "Christian Nation."
In this episode, we will examine the furor over the "Ground Zero" Mosque in New York City. I will also present an article by Rabbi Arthur Waskow: "5 Steps to Burning Books."
Numerous people and organizations are claiming that Sharia Law is trying to establish itself in the United States. In this podcast I examine three examples used by these folks in an effort to back up their claims: (1) A court decision in New Jersey; (2) Arrests at an Islamic Festival in Dearborn; and (3) A college student's guide dog.
