Episode 222 - Dr. Rebecca McCumbers Flavin - Holiday and Religious Displays in Public Spaces

Join us for a great discussion on the United States Supreme Court’s rulings on religious displays with a special emphasis on the Nativity scene cases. With our guest, Dr. Rebecca McCumbers Flavin, we'll ponder how the religion clauses of the First Amendment carve out space for individual religious freedom while at the same time preventing the government from establishing any particular faith as an official government religion.

 

Episode note: Due to a round of COVID this episode is delayed from when we had planned to air it. So whip up your favorite holiday beverage and enjoy this episode on holiday and other religious displays.
