Listen "Parental Rights, Religious Laws, and the Future of Catholicism in America"
Episode Synopsis
This week on Religion with Fred Bodimer, we unpack a pivotal 6-3 Supreme Court ruling that gives parents the right to opt their children out of school lessons about gender identity and sexual orientation. The decision mandates school districts to inform parents about potentially controversial content. In Texas, a new law requiring the Ten Commandments to be displayed in public classrooms is facing legal challenges from religious leaders concerned about the separation of church and state. Meanwhile, Pope Francis convenes a significant bishops’ meeting, reaffirming priestly celibacy and calling for a zero-tolerance policy on clergy sexual abuse. We also explore new data on Catholic demographics in the U.S., revealing a broad cultural footprint and the enduring influence of Hispanic Catholic communities.
