John Fugelsang: Separation of Church and Hate

SUMMARY: John Fugelsang delivers a keynote address drawing from his book, "Separate Church and Hate: A Sane Person’s Guide to Taking Back the Bible from Fundamentalist Fascists and Flock-Fleecing Frauds." Fugelsang mixes stand-up comedy, biblical insight, and political commentary to dismantle Christian nationalism. He celebrates the power of empathy, reason and laughter while urging alliances between atheists and progressive believers to defend democracy and true freedom of conscience.
