American Catholics, the Pope, and the Jews – with Robert George
About this episode
Yehuda Kurtzer discusses the intersection of Catholic faith and American political power with Robert George, exploring authority, war, and theological responsibility.
What does a clash between a Catholic Vice President and the Pope reveal about authority, war, and theological responsibility? In this episode of Identity/Crisis, Yehuda Kurtzer sits down with renowned Princeton University Professor Robert George to unpack what's happening at the intersection of Catholic faith and American political power. From six Catholic Supreme Court justices to the growing appeal of traditional religion among young people, from the proper limits of papal authority to the alarming rise of antisemitism in traditionalist Catholic circles, this conversation spans two millennia of church-state entanglement to illuminate this American moment.
