this is a clip from him from c-span's archives in 2005. let's listen. [video clip] >> i once said to a friend, i don't believe in god, but i fear him greatly. so i'm rather impressed by the fact that the universe is inexplicable in any terms in which we understand, so there is something out there that we don't. that induces a little humility, and theologically i try to remain humble. >> do take a risk when you take something like that with your conservative constituency? >> i'm not worried about risks. when i went into journalism, i decided this is what i wanted to do. the point of it was to say what i believed, and i did not really care one way or the other how people would react. otherwise people would adopt a easier life and i would have to take those risks. [end of video clip] host: your reaction? mr. weigle: that was classic charles, i think he protested. i think he was a deeply serious jewish intellectual. he had a difficult relationship with god, abraham and isaac and jacob. i never really argued theology with charles, but what he just said there

the third, however, is to go through a series of a dozen podcasts put together by our c-span archivesends. they are quite excellent and available to the general public. followed by a passing of a fairly straightforward exam. c-span, we have taken advantage of the wonderful asset relationship we have and incorporated it into the civics proficiency process. host: there are math and english requirements. do you know of any other college or university that has introduced a civics requirement? guest: no. but, i think it is a coming phenomenon. we do see state legislatures getting into motion to require it at their public schools and universities. perhaps, at long last, we are going to see some vigorous action on this. i remember justice o'connor, almost as soon as she left the supreme court, began an organization to deal with this. president obama spoke about it eloquently. i think we will see some action. host: in june, c-span released a historian survey of presidential leadership. we are joined by our advisors on that survey to hear their analysis of the results. we begin with douglas br

i wish people would use the c-span archives to look at senator whitehouse when senator whitehouse, whate did when the supreme court showed amy coney barrett down our throats. a great example of the hypocrisy of the republican party. they seem to only accept, and i'm a veteran and i'm also an african-american, but it seems like the republicans only accept black people or black republicans like clarence thomas, larry elder, tim scott. people of color don't like, don't accept. it's hard for us to even stomach them. look at the representative in florida, a big his name is mcdonald. i've heard a lot of c-span people call him and say we should run -- he should run for president. he talks a that she talks against critical race theory like it's being taught all across america. we already know they don't want to teach black history in the red states. when i said the red states, the southern red states. host: alan, durham north carolina. caller: happy. i just want to follow-up with the gentleman to praise -- critical race theory. i'm a conservative. i'm not a republican. i'm not a democrat. i sta

c-span. you will permit me to take a little pride that it was founded by a purdue alum, our school of communications is named for your founder, and we hold the c-span archivesat tool that any student can access. i'm tempted to say that if every american watched a little c-span once in a while, we wouldn't need courses like this. we wouldn't see the distressing data that we do annually about the lack of understanding and knowledge of americans have. host: the podcast, the civics literacy program, is being produced at the c-span call -- scholarship and engagement center at purdue university in the school of communications, correct? guest: that's right. there were three pathways, one is to take a course in history and civics, a one semester course, and an alternative is to attend at least six events that we will designate the ones that count. the third is to go through a series of a dozen podcast put together by our c-span archivist friends. they are excellent and available to the general public, or will be. followed by passing a fairly straightforward exam. so yes, c-span, we have taken advantage of the wonderful asset and relationship we have their and incor
