white catholics voted for donald trump. 2/3 of latino catholics voted for hillary clinton. host: memphis, tennessee, democrat. caller: i believe that everybody has hope and faith in their religion, and the foundation it was started on. but people also need to look at how they got their information in order to keep the faith, our whole faith through all the centuries, the whole faith, and believe in god, the aspirations and whatever. i used to think that, as a you are saying god was coming back and all this stuff like that, until i realized it had to have a source. jesus put miracles on our life, and whatever like that. you had one man at the beginning, mosys, who wrote moses, who wrote genesis, where all the families in the world started. i know that i believe that god put life, motion, and light into the heavens and on the earth. something that powerful cannot -- it gave everybody the gift of life. tom, who isl go to in wisconsin, independent color. -- caller. what is your question or comment? my first question -- i tuned in a little bit late. i was just wondering what the

hundreds of catholics were put in jail because the catholic church could resist the nazi's power.split the nation into a hundred pieces. and then one by one they had destroyed the pieces. over these broken pieces the nazis rose into power. one party, one nation, one religion. these men had won their struggle for power. they now ruled all of germany. but still they had trouble with their oldest and most persistent enemy, the truth. they found the truth does not die easily. and so they decided to abolish truth. one great source of truth is literature. so they burned books. 20 million of them. many great men in germany who spoke the truth were jailed or driven from the country. teachers. scientists. education was discouraged. in five years college attendance dropped 53%. it was forbidden to listen to a british radio program or read an american newspaper. in nazi germany you had to get your information from this man. he knew what was best for you. the church was one force in germany still strong enough to proclaim the truth in public. this catholic priest was arrested the following da

he had catholic speechwriters. dick allen was catholic. al haig was catholic. a la haig's brother was a catholic priest. ronald reagan's ex-wife, jane wyman -- you guys don't know this -- jane wyman, the movie this -- jane wyman, the movie star, died a third order dominican nun. she was buried in the habit. she was so do about that in her contract for "falcon crest" in the 1980's, she added the stipulation that a priest be on set with her every day to serve her communion. that's how devout she became. reagan and john paul ii, they were in constant communication. i tried to count the letters, the cables, the diplomatic pouches, the liaison, the contacts -- there were so many of them. impossible. the documents are still redacted. they don't make any sense, there are so many of them. i don't understand why so many of them are still redacted. martin and louise anderson recounted by the end of 1981 a dozen or so direct letters that had already been exchanged between them, before 1981 was even over. there was so much communication. i found a december 29, 1981 memo be

gay clergy is the catholic church well the behind the times. well i think that church always lagged a little bad i things as they say in centuries not in. years but really it's time for the church to in a sense recognize that these people exist. and that they are already part of the church and to really welcome them. in a way that makes them feel valued and. visible. father james martin thank you so much for joining us. my pleasure. a divisive issue that for catholics and anglicans now before we go we want to bring you some remarkable pictures of a rather young looking dinosaur who's actually a hundred and ten million years old and has finally been given a. name. the creature with fossilized skin and scales was found in a mine pitting canada in twenty eleven. it's been dubbed the boreal a pal to mock mate chile after the museum technician mulk mitchell he spent seven thousand painstaking hours removing rock from around the specimen. one scientist even called it the mona lisa of dinosaurs because of how well it's been preserved. and remember you

the catholic league blasted the article. it is because the idea of catholics and evangelicals working together in the culture war is a good thing for america. we finally have a president whose religion-friendly unlike his predecessor. we hope to capitalize on it. we are not going to be scared away by a screed from the vatican. >> polls show 80% of white evangelicals who voted one for trump. hot button social issues like abortion and traditional marriage. their biggest concern is religious liberty, the philadelphia archbishop called the article willfully ignorant and ignores the fact that america's culture wars weren't started by people faithful to christian beliefs. >> is not political liberalism or conservatives. in a sense, it's both. a liberal heart and a conservative head. >> need of the pope nor the has commented. >> chris: thank you. jeff sessions is threatening to deny federal crime-fighting resources to poor cities if they do not detain immigrants. it is the attorney general's latest effort to force local authorities

a lot of catholics moving into the conservative. no when catholics were still ethnic democrats by and large. how on earth did he pull that off at his age? >> well, at the toe begin with, they were a disparate lot. you were around in 1948, there was no movement. so what was a conserve to give win? well, probably the ideal of a conservative was robert taft. who was the senator from ohio, and he was famous for isolationism, between the wars. but he wasn't -- didn't quite fit the view of conservatism as we define it. he had some peculiarity. we think of conservatives as small government, limited federal law. he was all that. also was one of the first senators to say there should be a federal housing because it's through neighborhoods and housing we transfer value to the next generation. he want a federal role in housing and wanted a department of education on the grounds if these southern segregationates won't educate children, we will. if day won't integrate, we'll educate them. well, that was 1948, very early. he was called a conserva

important there were a lot of irish catholics in his circle. the campaign secretary was one he always signed his name in green ink. and then they were close friends. and they had a tumultuous relationship that broke down but he had a palatial mansion in maryland working as the chairman and missy would arrange for him to have evenings and she would bring all the irish catholics with her live with said up there and sing and drink and played the accordion. and grace was the secretary so they made sure the catholic leaders would come into the white house any time to keep their relationship strong with fdr. because the father had a bigger audience than rush limbaugh. to counteract the hate speech. >> i believe that i read in another book. [inaudible] but in order to do that he disinherited all of his children?. >> it was not half of the estate. it was half of the income and a lot of people made that mistake. but it disinherited them and tell missing died then it would refer to. they could make a living and he said she could not. but he told his son

kids catholic. he's jewish and that's fine! it's going-- i'm kidding! i shouldn't -- >> stephen: no one says-- are you angling for a job in the trump administration right now? ( laughter ) okay. >> i'm here tonight-- no. yes, we were sort of figuring out how to raise james with what religion? we're going the catholic route. he did get baptized. he got baptized later on in may. he was 10 months old. which i think is too big for the priest to be holding. >> stephen: it's a little big. you have to go to a baby pool or a hot tub. >> priests are not known for their grit, so i was worried he was going to drop him, but he didn't drop him. >> stephen: i bet there are priests out there saying i have plenty of grit. i'm celibate. that takes grit. >> that's true. >> stephen: that builds up the grit after a while. at 10 monthses he must have been scrambling around because they're strong at 10 months. >> they're strong and they're emotional and they have opinions. and, also, this is coupled with the fact that, l

it was the clinton campaign that was disparageing catholic and change the catholic doctrine and makesrchy would be victim offed and we'll see what we do to put an end and talk about the freedom from religious persecution and pro-life. and hopefully something will come of that. >> lou: it was the pope himself started with the president and making the comments that he did. >> absolutely. >> lou: i mean during the campaign. and this is an unusual pope and i am being genous to him and i wish you well and commend you for trying to be a piece maker. in another area, this president. frustrated so obviously by the administration that preceded his that permitted kim jong-un to build miniaturized war heads and icbm program that is far more advapsed than the public had inkling of in the entire administration of bark bookkeeper obama and now the president has to deal with the crisis. >> he does. and i know the president wants a diplomatic solution and working for. and i know that president trump will do whatever it takes to keep this nation secure and that's why i said yesterday in the washington

the catholic church reacted much faster. and with much more force, initially, but over time evangelicals did respond and respond in great numbers. and by the 1980s, of course, the issue of abortion had become a major one, a matter of concern to a great many conservative christians and remained to the present day. another theory is kind of related to the third one. is the sexual resolution of the 1960s. that where the most important factors mobilize evangelicals. indeed in the '60s on, there's a steady increase in local organizations all over the country that deal with issues, addressing issues of controlling pornograp pornography, trying to prevent prostitution, prohibit ordinances, recognizing gay rights and more recently mobilization against same sex marriage and things like that. a lot of scholars see abortion as part of this -- the final theory that i'll mention, is that the republican party and the late 1970s, early 1980s, or activists in the republican party saw a great potential c constituency that involved christians

arab button son, senior editor national catholic editor. >> a lot of us see everything that happened particularly last weekend, there is great division in this country, and it is hard sometimes to take it all in and be optimistic about our future. >> absolutely. >> how do you council people who feel that way >> well, i think the most important thing is to remember that there is refuge and so for us, especially in the faith community, we want to be able to provide a respite aplace where people can come and get that encouragement and also just to remind us that we don't get our identity from what other people have to say about us. all like me and my children my son will come to me and say so-and-so said such-and-such about me. and it's hard for me as father of a small child just to say you know what? you don't get your identity from what other people say. i'm your you get your identity from me. and so in the church particularly in the faith community, it's important for us to remind our folks we don't get our identity by what somebody else's kid says about you or your. our message is m

they are disparaging catholics and trying to change catholic doctrine.no sense they would be involved in these kind of criticism. but we'll see what we can do to put an end to it. and of course pro-life. lou: it was the pope himself who started with this president making the comments he did during the campaign. this an unusual pope, and i'll be generous to him calling him unusual. i wish you well and comengtd you for trying to be a peacemaker in that regard. let's turn to another area. this president frustrated by the administration that preceded his that permitted kim jong-un to build miniaturized warheads, to have an icbm program that's far more advanced than barack obama and now this president has to deal with this crisis. >> he does. i know the president wants a diplomatic solution. that's what he's working for. but i also know president trump is going to do whatever it takes to keep this nation secure. that's why i said yesterday to the "washington post," the bible has given president trump full authority to use whatever sources necessary to use ass

that's because the former clans man has become a catholic priest and has just confessed publicly to his bruce leshan has their reaction. >> i didn't know he was a priest until the newspaper came over. >> butler and their lawyer reacting for the first time to news that william atchinson, the ku klux klan's man who burned a cross in their yard in 1977 had become a catholic priest. >> i didn't know what to say. it was unbelievable. >> five years after the cross burning, president and mrs. reagan came to their home in a predominantly white neighborhood in college park and told them this kind of thing should not happen in america. >> it makes you very afraid of what's going on. you definitely worry about your family. >> apparently prompted by the racist violence in charlottesville, father atchinson wrote a column in the arlington catholic herald two had been a member of the kkk and writing that he was truly sorry. >> it has been years and we have never heard one or anything. >> the diocese says he knows he needs to pay the $23,000 a judge awarded the butlers for his violation of their civil

so catholics were reading their own version. and i have done some work on the public support or opposition to that. and evangelicals were not very distinctive. mainline protestants and catholics -- everybody was opposed in terms of the mass public. i am not sure how much it distinguished evangelicals from other christians at that time. i have a little bit more nuanced view, i think, on how much it really got things going. >> we've got several good questions here. here is a very, very thoughtful one. to make us stop and think. how essential should we view freedom of religion and freedom of speech to the vitality of american evangelicalism given that the greatest growth of christianity is growing in countries where those freedoms are non-existent. tom or carl, want to dive in on that one? [ laughter ] >> there is no question that persecution, god works in lands of persecution to prosper his church. my view on this has always been that the american church and the liberties that it has has allowed it to evan jellize and share the go

of course evangelicals weren't the first to move on that, the catholic church reacted much faster and with much more force initially but overtime evangelicals did respond and respond in great numbers and by the 1980s of course the issue of abortion had become a major one, a matter of concern to a great many conservative christians and it's remained so to the present day. another theory related to the third one is that it's really the sexual revolution of the 1960s. that were the most important factors mobilizing evangelicals. indeed in the '60s, there's a steady increase in local organizations all over the country that deal with issues -- addressing issues of controlling pornography, trying to prevent prostitution, prohibit ordnances, recognizing gay rights and, of course, more recently we've had mobilization against same-sex marriage and things like that. a lot of scholars see abortion as part of this [ inaudible ] that the republican party and -- [ inaudible ] [ muted ] level of voting turnout than other values that could be activated by republican politicians and that republican ac

. >> reporter: at saint leo the great catholic church in fairfax, virginia, the revelations have been jaw dropping. in a catholic newspaper, father william achedson confessed he had been a member of the kkk in the 1970s, writing, my actions were despicable. the images from charlottesville brought back memories of a bleak period of my life that i would have preferred to forget. in maryland, the butler family has been unable to erase the night of terror when he left a burning cross on their front yard. >> i will never ever forget that. we didn't deserve this. no one deserves this. >> reporter: he was convicted of multiple cross burnings, making homemade bombs and sending these letters to martin luther king's widow. threatening death by lynching. he said he was the exhausted cyclops of the robert e. lee lodge. he never apologized or paid $23,000 of restitution. in 1982 after learning of their story, president reagan visited the butlers. >> i thought maybe we might just call attention to how reprehensible something of this kind is. >> reporter: now, 35 years later word that he's been a pr

but the catholic general had an idea. he said, "hey, if someone in this town can drink "a three-liter tankard filled with wine in one gulp, i'll spare the city." according to legend, rothenburg's retired mayor nusch said, "i can do that." mayor nusch drank the whole thing, the town was saved, and the mayor slept for three days. and today, tourists gather on the town square several times daily for a less-than-thrilling reenactment of that legendary chug. nice story, but in actuality, the town was occupied and ransacked several times during that 30 years of war, and when peace finally came, rothenburg was never again a major player. it slumbered peacefully until rediscovered in the 19th century by those same romantics who put the rhine on the grand tour map. they came here to paint and write about the best-preserved medieval town in germany. shops are filled with etchings and prints inspired by this 19th century romantic take on the town.

the press liked him and his positions were ideally suited, threats to the catholic strategy.rote a memo to the president in very strong terms of saying we are going to have to go after him and take him down he is the main one. i said we ought to go down to the kennels and turn all the dogs loose. three years later i was explaining that memorandum before the watergate committee. [laughter] but president clinton was saying you know he is strong in the south. what are you doing i thought you were supposed to handle this. so i have to tell you a story it was the pentagon papers in the rose garden the next sunday. they were not from the nixon administration to the kennedy johnson and they were designed to damage and point out that we were lied into the war. henry kissinger was outraged so they pushed ehrlichman and haldeman to get an investigation going because his father-in-law were former father-in-law was close to hoover. they kept pushing me to get together a team. so they got together in various departments. it's not only to tie him to everything that was done but to dig anyt

mark segraves joins us now from the newsroom and mark he says the catholic church knew about this alllong. >> yeah. that's right. father william ach chin son said he never kept his past secret from the church. bu b charlottesville he said he felt like he needed to make a public statement about what he calls his despicable past. >> father william ach chin son is a priest at saint lou owe leo the great church in an article published yesterday in the -- father ach chin son -- and that he had participated in cross burnings and threats. to anyone who has been subjected to racism or bigotry, i am sorry. i have no excuse, but i hope you will forgive me, the priest wrote. but in the article father gives no details about his actions in the late 1970s. he also leaves out one important fact, that he was ordered to pay the victim of one of those cross burnings $23,000 and he never did. father ach chin son was born in arlington virginia in 1954. in 1977 while a student at the university of maryland, he was charged with multiple cross burnings in prince georges county. 11 years later, he was ordain

that's a real conundrum because the roman catholic church has huge influence in the philippines. issue that government officials are not able to go up against this enormous influence? officials are not able to go up against this enormous influence7m ta kes a against this enormous influence7m takes a lot of political will on the pa rt takes a lot of political will on the part of the administration, and in other issues, this has shown some good level of political will, and we just hope that he can show that, in the fight against hiv in the philippines. it takes a lot of political will, it takes a lot of, i would say, fully tickle strength on his part to go against the local government officials and just to tell them that fighting hiv is a priority. and really, in the final analysis, the hiv epidemic here in the philippines has not really been given a lot of attention because of the stigma that is attached to it, and we see that a lot still. you're watching newsday on the bbc. still to come on the programme: # life story. the world of singapore in the 1970s. we speak to the star who

but remember that baltimore is the archdiocese of the catholic church, and so if one were to be a catholic in the mid 19th century baltimore is where you would want to do it. he exerts a kind of cultural power through his association with the catholic church in a city like baltimore even as he is perceived as a minority in other parts of the country. >> by the time the case got to the supreme court its docket was dred scott v sandford, s-a-n-d-f-o-r-d. who was sandford and how did his name get attached to this case? >> john sandford is mr. emerson's brother. at this point dr. emerson is deceased. mrs. emerson is tiring of the litigation. she transfers title -- i think the record is fairly clear she transfers title, although -- >> it gets a little less clear. >> yeah, it is somewhat clear she transfers title to her brother. john sandford is in new york, he is a businessman, but he had ties to st. louis. one of those ties, incidentally, was by marriage. his earlier wife who was now deceased was the daughter of pierre shotto, the largest slave owner in the city of st. louis. that might explai

he is a catholic living in the large diocese of maryland. i think most important for thinking about dred scott, he is someone who has fought for many, many years about the question of free black citizenship even before we get to 1857. it is a question that has been on taney's mind since the 1820s and the 1830s when as attorney general he had already begun to work out his theory about black citizenship, and we know his conclusion is that black people cannot be citizens of the united states. >> well, the background to tell you more numerically about the country at this point, the total population of the united states in the 1850s was 31 plus million people. slaves, who counted for an additional 3.4 or 4 million people, and there were about half a million free blacks in the united states. did the free blacks, for example, live in a certain part of the country? >> well, free blacks, you know, there were free blacks in the south, there were free blacks in the north. a lot of times after emancipation if a slave were emancipated the slave would lea

by the way, one of the untold stories, you mentioned catholics, one of the untold stories the way catholicsed, they voted 52-45% for president obama. they voted the exact proportion for president trump. they happened to live in states primarily, midwestern states of ohio, pennsylvania, michigan, wisconsin. it was midwestern, catholic, working class voters who flipped this election. now that's history. what do we do now? trish: i'll just tell you, the economy matters. it is the economy stupid, right? the economy is the one unifying issue. as much as you want to talk about how you think republicans are somehow racist, if you voted for trump, you're racist, that will not slide. i say that to the democratic party. i know, robin, you would agree with me. that will not slide. there is a core economic issue there, that everybody can rally around. he tapped into that, has he not, steve? >> no, absolutely. you're right, economic growth, of all the reasons donald trump won, the biggest upset in american political history, all things that he won is really the economic anxiety out there in the country.
