Summary

Jessica and I sat down to talk about several stories from the past week involving religious and politics. -- Ark Encounter lost a tax rebate worth up to $18 million to avoid a 50-cent-per-ticket safety fee. -- Creationists are mocking Flat Earthers for taking the Bible too literally. Really. -- The "inspirational" Mormon story that is anything but uplifting. -- The MN town that shut down a "free speech zone" to prevent Satanists from using it. -- How Wisconsin is considering a bill that would make it harder to train OB/GYNs. -- The BYU-Idaho professor who lost her job for supporting LGBT equality. -- The Boy Scouts may allow girls before they allow atheist boys. -- The African-American pastor who renounced his ordination with the Southern Baptist Convention. -- The Muslim Democrat running for Senate who received a surprising message from her Republican opponent. -- Richard Dawkins getting de-platformed by a radio station in Berkeley, CA. -- Doctor Who isn't a man. And other things Hemant doesn't understand. (1:26:48) Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
