Thou Shalt Kill???!
Show notes
The pope speaks out against the death penalty as the Trump administration considers livestreaming an execution. Frank and Dan discuss the barbarism of capital punishment, the ethics of public executions, and the Catholic Church's long history of changing its supposedly unchanging moral positions.
But first some news! New polling shows British Christian nationalism is more about identity than actual Christianity, Trump goes after a Muslim Senate candidate in Michigan, Indonesia gets upset about Andrea Bocelli's past support for Israel, a far-right pastor calls for Mike Huckabee's execution, another rapture prediction comes and goes, and a Texas school pulls a girl from the lead in Little Shop of Horrors because she's playing a boy.
