Summary

This week on Thank God I’m Atheist: A Republican lawmaker freaks out over a Muslim prayer in Congress—except it turns out the man praying wasn’t Muslim at all. Frank and Dan break down the ignorance and bigotry on display. Plus, a new study explores what happens when clergy take psilocybin (the active compound in magic mushrooms). The results?
