  • Good topics and guests

    It’s hard to find Catholic podcast that are lighthearted, but also explore your intellectual ability. This is one of them. I learned something new every time I listen. It encourages me to think about things I haven’t before. Love it.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

On the Law of Speaking Freely w/ Dr. Adam Tomkins
Q: How does one approach hate speech laws in a way that doesn't infringe on free speech?
Hate speech laws can exist if they are narrowly defined and target threats, but they must avoid broader definitions that suppress valid expressions.
On the Law of Speaking Freely w/ Dr. Adam Tomkins
Q: How important is the American First Amendment to the movement for free speech?
It's extremely important as it serves as a guiding beacon for protecting free speech, although it requires careful interpretation.
On the Law of Speaking Freely w/ Dr. Adam Tomkins
Q: Are free speech and the freedom of the press synonymous?
They are closely related but not the same; freedom of the press is one aspect of freedom of speech.
On the Law of Speaking Freely w/ Dr. Adam Tomkins
Q: Does the Academy view freedom of speech as having ancient roots?
Most commentators claim freedom of speech emerged in ancient societies like Athens, but I argue that it is a modern concept that developed around the Reformation.
Broken Altars: Secularist Violence in Modern History w/ Thomas Albert Howard
Q: Is describing national socialism, Soviet communism, Italian fascism and other such isms as secular religions a fair description and why or why not?
It should be approached with caution; it's important to understand historical actors as they saw themselves rather than simply labeling their ideologies as religions because doing so diminishes the seriousness of genuine religious beliefs.
