Thoughts & Prayers' ā€” Not!

Freethought Radio takes a trenchant look at recent insensitive religious absurdities by Rev. Pat Robertson, Bishop Robert Morlino, President Trump and Speaker of the House Paul Ryan. We play Roy Zimmermanā€™s satiric ā€œTo the Victims of This Tragedyā€ as commentary on ā€œthoughts and prayersā€ substituting for action. FFRF Patrick Oā€™Reiley Legal Fellow Chris Line joins us to talk about the hysterical hullabaloo over his recent victory ending football prayer at a Georgia high school. Investigative reporter Katherine Stewart, author of The Good News Club, returns to talk about her new piece about another threat to secular public education, ā€œThe Proselytizers and the Privatizers,ā€ appearing in this monthā€™s American Prospect.
