The Secular Perspective

We try to wrap our heads around what has just happened at the press conference in Helsinki with Presidents Trump and Putin. We then go through a few other topics before wrapping up with updated numbers and protesters at the Ark Encounter on its two year anniversary.

At least for a little while churches are going to be taxed because the Trump administration wasn't smart enough to check for loopholes in their new tax code. Orthodox Jews in Florida want to overstep their bounds using religious freedom as an excuse. A while back we spoke about the Word of Life Church and how they beat a teenager to death. There is now a small documentary about that on tv. Finally, there is another “White Civil Rights” Rally planned for August in Washington DC.

Jahi McMath has died... more. Sarah Sanders gets kicked out of a restaurant on moral grounds. Jeff Sessions church is complaining about him. A Walgreens pharmacist refused to fill a prescription on his own because it violates his beliefs.
