Good, bible believing Christians should just automatically be Republicans. Everybody knows this.

Have you heard that sort of argument or been led to believe that this is just the "biblical" way? If so, that probably means you've been given a hearty serving of propaganda. Our friend and philosopher, Scott Coley, wrote "Ministers of Propaganda: Truth, Power and the Ideology of the Religious Right", and in it, Scott exposes the rhetoric of the religious right for what it often is - propaganda that serves an underlying motivation. In this episode, we chat with Scott about how everything from politics to science to gender and racial issues and more are propagandized by the religious right to build fear and shut down arguments. Fascinating stuff.

Cheers!
