225: Evangelicals and Extremism with Tim Alberta
James and Al share how Hunter Biden has outmaneuvered the partisan investigations of his family, give an update on the Republican primary, and welcome journalist Tim Alberta to discuss the modern evangelical movement and its alliance with Trump. They investigate how the faith has been co-opted by politics and culture, driven by the apocalyptic view that envisions Democrats as waging a war on Christianity. While doing so, they cover how religion has moved away from scripture, the disintegration of church and state being encouraged by Trump, and why religion is driving away many of its adherents.
