About this episode
The Mayor of New York City, Eric Adams, delivered a controversial speech at an interfaith breakfast, raising issues of church/state separation, gun control, and the role of religion in governance. Akhil uses the opportunity for some comparative constitutional analysis, and we look at the worldwide continuum of separationist approaches. The mayor is quite provocative on school prayer and quite confusing on guns, and we take that up as well. Meanwhile, we take a question on the judiciary in a far away and yet not so far away land.
