Kaitlyn Schiess: America's Bible-haunted history and the way ahead
Americans have long used the Bible to justify their politics. That's in part why today, younger Christians are rethinking their relationship to their faith, and the Bible's place in American political life. Kaitlyn Schiess says that's a good thing. She's the author of "The Ballot and the Bible: How Scripture Has Been Used and Abused in American Politics and Where We Go from Here." For the second installment in our series about faith in American today, Schiess makes the case for how Christianity can play a healthier role in framing our politics.
Revisit our first conversation in our series on faith in America, with Noah Feldman: What it means to be a Jew today.
Guest: Kaitlyn Schiess, author of "The Ballot and the Bible: How Scripture Has Been Used and Abused in American Politics and Where We Go from Here"; studies political theology at Duke Divinity School; and is co-host of the Holy Post podcast.
