733: Will Progressive Pastors Close the Political “God Gap”? and Elizabeth Neumann
Since the 1980s, the Republican Party has increasingly been associated with Christianity, while the Democratic Party has distanced itself from religious rhetoric to be more inclusive. But is that changing? This year, a surprising number of pastors are running for Congress as Democrats, and they are not shy about infusing their campaigns with faith. Republicans eager to protect their brand are fighting back by calling these progressive clergy candidates “PINOs”—Pastors in Name Only. In related news, Ryan Burge reveals surprising data about the political views of mainline ministers. Kaitlyn interviews counterterrorism expert Elizabeth Neumann about the rise of political violence, how the threats in the U.S. are changing, and how churches can be part of the solution. Also this week—the world’s slowest concert reaches a milestone.   Holy Post Plus: Getting Schooled - Aliens 101: https://holypost.substack.com/p/getting-schooled-aliens-101?r=35kf51&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web   0:00 - Show Starts 1:30 - Theme Song 1:52 - Sponsor - AG1 - Heavily researched, thoroughly purity-tested, and filled with stuff you need.
