This is in the most

This is in the most current newsletter from St. Paul’s Episcopal Church in Akron, OH., my sponsoring parish. It is nothing really profound about it, but the list of topics George Murphy is present during a summer adult education class on church-state issues.
Here are the topics:
– Religion and the state in the Bible
– Natural law and the Ten Commandments
– What is “an establishment of religion?”
– The Church’s use of force
– Religion in the public schools
– Were the founding fathers Christian?
– Luther’s “two kingdoms” concept
– Separation of church and state
– “Don’t preach about politics.”
– In what “God” do we “trust?”
– Revolution – 1776 and others
– Capital punishment
– Who needs government? And, why?
