Separation of Religion & State

Whether we like it or not our country is a theolegal democracy – a nation whose legislators are not allowed to legislate theology but who can use theology to legislate. Rev. Nate Walker of the First Unitarian Church of Philadelphia will analyze this trend in a lecture about the relative ecumenical diversity of the country’s founders and their constituents, a supermajority of whom identified as Christians. Over time, religious pluralism became more complex as American society both influenced and was influenced by globalization. Rev. Nate will urge us to no longer use the historical term “separation of church and state” to describe our theolegal nation, but to acknowledge the country’s theological diversity by using the phrase “separation of religion and state”.
