The world is slowly moving towards climate change solutions and, once again, Australia is the laggard on the world stage but trying to tell everyone how well it's performing, even though no other world leader believes it. And this is the modus operandi of the Morrison government: lie, mispresent the data, gaslight, or divert the attention somewhere else. The US President, Joe Biden, might be an old man but he’s not a fool and knows a fool when he sees one. It’s obvious Morrison wants to lead a government that acts as the world’s double-exhaust pipes, and accede to the wishes of the many vested interests in the mining and oil sectors. But he’ll be in for a huge shock when he sees the size of the tariffs imposed on Australian goods and services exports.A milkshake video was released through a government-managed website – The Good Society – and if a casual viewer wasn't told about what the video was about, they'd be scratching their head trying to work out how smearing a milkshake in a man’s face relates to sexual consent and the serious issues of sexual harassment, rape and assault. But the content of these videos provides an insight into the mentality of the government that commissioned the videos in the first place: a government that wishes to impose its narrow-minded conservatism upon the community and searching for a teenage community that doesn't seem to exist anywhere in Australia. And its a conservatism based on the Pentecostal beliefs of the Prime Minister.Prime Ministers have the complete right to believe – or not believe – in any religion they choose, as long as it's a private matter. There is a church-state separation in modern democracies – for very good reasons – but Morrison wants the church to creep over in the political sphere. And it shouldn't be there.And the vaccination rollout keeps creating political problems for the federal government and they keep looking to apportion blame to everyone – except for themselves. Why did they take on the program in the first place? They provided massive amounts of stimulus funding to the state and territory governments and the states and territories ending up getting all the political credit, much to the chagrin of Morrison and Josh Frydenberg. They weren't going to allow that to happen again. So, they took on the implementation of the vaccination program, something the federal government has never done before, hoping to get all the political benefit, and a clear pathway to victory at the next federal election. And the pear-shaped result is exactly the result the federal government deserves.

It is impossible to agree with any human 100 percent of the time. Most people, present company included, have a hard time agreeing with themselves all the time. Yet, it doesn't take much time to realize that we are all operating with various degrees of hypocrisy and cognitive dissidence. In order to really make progress in these debates, we need to start first and foremost with our own positions and hold them up to brutal scrutiny. As we evaluate politics and the common ground we might find, it is important to also note that we may come to a same conclusion but use vastly different methods to do so. While this may not at all seem relevant, it is actually rather important to fully express why we hold said views. In doing so we may see sides that we have never thought before, and therefore need to adjust or modify our thoughts and motivations for drawing deductions. Still, no matter, as always the case with us, we will seek the ground of respect, no matter how much we may disagree.

Many episodes ago, your hosts skipped a whole clause of the First Amendment for good reason - to accommodate their first guest! Fellow podcaster Zane Relethford joins Dan and J.T. to discuss the influence of religion in politics. Zane is a vital part of the Fancybat Podcast Network, of which The Cocktail Party Congress is a proud part! You can hear more from Zane (and many more) on The Cartoncast and Empowered! Zane was kind enough to provide our featured cocktail: Jesus Juice! To drink along at home, mix together equal parts red wine and Dr. Pepper on the rocks. Dan and J.T. used a Malbec per this website's advice, but Zane kept it sacrilicious and went with Manischewitz. As always, please drink (and think) responsibly! In Vino Veritas! Enjoy this Roy Moore spokesman's cognitive dissonance at hearing that the Bible is not the mandated platform for oaths of office. Or check out the documentary "With God on Our Side" to find out why Jimmy Carter was simultaneously a dream and nightmare for the then-nascent Evangelical Right. Created and presented by J.T. Andrews and Dan Caves. Edited by Dan Caves.

In this sixth episode of Centre Point, host Bill Goodman talks about the role of religion in politics with Beau Weston, the John M. and Louise Van Winkle Professor of Sociology, and Ben Knoll, the John Marshall Harlan Associate Professor of Politics. Weston and Knoll—who will teach "linked" courses on this subject in the future—explore how important the religiosity of presidential candidates is to the electorate and the role religion has played in the creation of American identity.
Rev. Stuart Smith joins Jim and Steve to discuss Relgion in America.
Tune in to Marvelous Monday on BlogTalk USA! Dr. Shirley McKellar and Bishop L.J. Guillory will be discussing the question "Do the religious-extremists who have infested Congress simply ignore the wall of seperation between church and state in our country, or do they intentionally use overreaching public policy as a tool to chip away at the wall of seperation?" Using a particular religion to supress the rights and freedoms of others is a dangerous and hypocritical game to play. Of course, that may just be an added bonus for the extremists who have hyjacked the right wing of the United States Congress. Call in to Marvelous Monday and share your thoughts on the influence individual religious beliefs should have on creation of public policy for all citizens.
