QUESTION PRESENTED: Whether the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 1st Circuit's failure to apply the Supreme Court's forum doctrine to the First Amendment challenge of a private religious organization that was denied access to briefly display its flag on a city flagpole, pursuant to a city policy expressly designating the flagpole a public forum open to all applicants, with hundreds of approvals and no denials, conflicts with the Supreme Court's precedents holding that speech restrictions based on religious viewpoint or content violate the First Amendment or are otherwise subject to strict scrutiny and that the establishment clause is not a defense to censorship of private speech in a public forum open to all comers; whether the 1st Circuit's classifying as government speech the brief display of a private religious organization's flag on a city flagpole, pursuant to a city policy expressly designating the flagpole a public forum open to all applicants, with hundreds of approvals and no denials, unconstitutionally expands the government speech doctrine, in direct conflict with the court's decisions in Matal v. Tam, Walker v. Texas Division, Sons of Confederate Veterans, Inc. and Pleasant Grove City v. Summum; and  whether the 1st Circuit's finding that the requirement for perfunctory city approval of a proposed brief display of a private religious organization's flag on a city flagpole, pursuant to a city policy expressly designating the flagpole a public forum open to all applicants with hundreds of approvals and no denials, transforms the religious organization's private speech into government speech, conflicts with the Supreme Court's precedent in Matal v. Tam, and circuit court precedents in New Hope Family Services, Inc. v. Poole, Wandering Dago, Inc. v. Destito, Eagle Point Education Association v. Jackson County School District and Robb v.

“All we can do is pray.” How many times have you heard someone utter these words, often with a somewhat defeatist attitude? Our Spotlight guests this week want you to know that the first thing, the most important thing, Christians can do is pray! Speaking at an online event hosted by the Illinois Prayer Caucus Network in celebration of National Religious Freedom Day, Randy Forbes and Peter Breen stress the preeminent priority of prayer, especially as the practice and proclamation of our faith increasingly comes under fire. They also address the need for strategic thinking, network building, and perseverance in order to stand against President Biden's continuation of the agendas of the Obama administration. Randy Forbes is a former Virginia congressman and President and Co-Founder of the Congressional Prayer Caucus Foundation and the National Strategic Center. Peter Breen is a former Illinois state representative and Vice President and Senior Counsel for the Thomas More Society.

I interview Nick Fish, president of American Atheists, about efforts to combat Project Blitz, the nefarious campaign orchestrated by the Congressional Prayer Caucus Foundation to flood state legislatures with bills that promote fundamentalist Christian views on issues involving separation of church and state. We also talk about the fake War on Christmas (and now the fake War on Thanksgiving!), as well as the ongoing lawsuit filed in New Jersey by former AA president David Silverman.

This Week on SarahTalk... Sarah's presentation in Winter Park, Florida to the Central Florida Freethought Community, "Project Blitz: Inside the Playbook of the Religious Right". First, Co-Founder and Spokesman of The Satanic Temple, Lucien Greaves, talks a bit about the documentary "Hail Satan?" and Church/State Separation issues. Then, Sarah's presentation is a deep dive inside the pages of the manual produced by the Congressional Prayer Caucus Foundation aimed at changing the narrative of religious liberty issues to preference Christianity and its views into state laws throughout the United States.
