thomas christians heretics, the roman catholics made thomas the patron of india.87 pope john paul visits india and holds a shrine dedicated to st. thomas. >> in terms of christianity in india, i think that declaration of thomas as a patron saint in india gave history or long held history to thomas and christians. >> it is the story of the importance of faith, reason and doubt. doubt and faith are two sides of the same coin. >> my lord, my god. >> without jesus' commission to his disciples to become apostles, that is, to go out from ju dee a and gal lee and spread his message around the world, there would be no christianity. frankly, the followers of jesus would have gone down in history as a sect of judaism. >> it's one of the great ironies of the way we talk about thomas that we call him doubting thomas when actually we should call him faithful thomas because what's happened is he's gone on his journey and in the end he makes the right decision. he comes to faith. >> my lord, my god. >> doubting thomas may be the perfect apostle because he in a sense represents a

it is a heretic thing to happen, especially as people were celebrating palm sunday around the world.a, as well as our representatives in cairo, and we have confirmed that a lot of the people who died were families celebrating in churches, and our hearts go out to the security services in alexandria who tried to stop the suicide bomber, most of whom lost their lives as well. this attack in tanta was time for maximum impact, wasn't it? they both were. they were targeting full churches on a day that is very well attended. 0f course, it is really difficult to understand the psyche of someone who tries to cause such indiscriminate carnage, especially at a time of vulnerability, when people are standing and praying. this, sadly, is of course not the first time that coptic christians have been targeted in egypt. it does seem to be getting worse, the threat rising to a whole new level. we have had quite a series of things in the past months. it has been almost daily. at worst, the bombing of the church by the cathedral, and now these bombings, but also individual attacks on christians, coupl

telling the person they are completely wrong about everything they ain't, and what they think is heretical. host: dennis in west palm beach, florida. caller: i want to thank c-span for the prior show and this one. no one else on tv would have it. i hope it of use my time up with this, but picking up on what matt was just saying to the caller that is in a fight herself as a christian, you know, the bottom line is john the baptist recognized jesus in the womb of the blessed mother before she was ever born. jesus, thee near bible also says that god says i need you and your mother's womb. what i want to get from matt is what impact the thing public schools have on teaching our children how to view what i will call the culture of life issues as opposed to the culture of death? i believe public schools decent to accept the culture of death. schools teach them how to view marriage and gender. i think we have to have parental choice in education of our children. there was a supreme court case in 1925, peers versus society of sisters. when they decided the case, the supreme court ruled 9-0 in favor

the british had become heretics in their own church.so hotheaded patriots come and not just the new england puritans, but quakers in the delaware valley, planters of the chesapeake, and scots irish boardman on the frontier, they all rebelled, or enough of them rebelled, and those cradle cultures so lovingly examined expressed various definitions of liberty, but also patriots had cause to resist british war ofty, and after the independence, all four cultures collaborated on a constitution that accommodated in remarkable fashion the puritan notion of ordered liberty under law, the quakers live and let live freedom of conscience, the cavaliers aristocratic notion of hierarchical liberty, and the wild libertarianism of the scots irish. however, thelicy first and greatest high priest of the classical acr was george washington. it is sobering to revisit the precepts of his farewell address and recall that americans once upon a time held them sacred. ,ashington's model was moses whose farewell address in deuteronomy promised the israelites the

they have been conditioned to say that clerics who are comfortable in the west are heretics. host: john in washington, the morning. caller: i just want to make a comment, we are trying to change the minds of isis. look at the borders we are drawing up a stone european imperialism. transjordan, iraq. these borders don't mean anything now because they aren't official. they didn't have any hard borders. i just don't hear enough of it. for a sequence. i think we have to look at the borders first. i just wanted to know what you had to say about that. >> that is part of isis propaganda. hewitt was shown video showing you so toldf -- that isis was defending women and that was his motivation. host: he wrote the story, can you turn a terrorist back into a into the february edition of wired. compact us again. is our last half-hour, it open phones. we want to hear about any public policy issue that you want to talk about. for republicans, democrats, and independents. you can start right now and we will be right back.

i am a heretic about it. it seems the economic precariousness is a secondary factor.rlie, we have been talking about france for a long time. they have had high unemployment for 20 years, economic issues, and economic successes. charlie: the large role of the state in the economy. me, you someone said to have to understand that france is the one country where communism worked. for a large part, that is true. >> yesterday, maybe. idea of identity versus cosmopolitanism is the thread that runs through these. charlie: there is the cultural factor, too. adam: touching on to you than if it -- do you benefit from some broad globalization. if you do, it is macron. if you don't benefit from globalization, you vote extreme right or extreme left. >> beyond populism, there is a red.of feeling of pen is, because of her father and the views he's expressed, the people around her they think are too deeply connect it, either in terms of their own ideas or personal opinions, to fascism. >> there is no question. le pen senior was a follower of the vichy regime. .here is no denying it sh

i am a heretic about it. it seems the economic precariousness is a secondary factor.rlie, we have been talking about france for a long time. they have always had a very high level of unemployment for the last 20 years. many economic issues, and economic successes. charlie: the large role of the state in the economy. >> a huge role in the state in the economy. someone once said to me, france is the one country where communism worked. that is in large part true. >> yesterday, maybe. versus issue of identity cosmopolitanism is pervasive, the thread that runs through these. charlie: there is the cultural factor, too. >> did you or do you benefit from broader globalization, or do not? if you do it is macron. ,if you don't, benefit from globalization, you vote extreme right or extreme left. charlie: i wonder if beyond populism, there is a kind of a feeling of dread. that le pen is, because of her father and what he was and the views he's expressed, the people around her they think are too deeply connected. either in terms of their own ideas or personal opinions, to fascism.

if the democratic party decides to hunt heretics -- this guy in omaha. bill eight years ago that would have doctors tell women they could have an ultrasound before getting an abortion, something along those lines. i'm sure i got some of the facts wrong. >> you got it right. >> but this caused a national crisis within the democratic party. the extremism is mind -- if you want to elect democrats in kentucky, in west virginia, if you want to elect them in alabama, if you want to elect them -- harold, let me look at you. i understand the democratic party's pro choice for the most part f you want nancy pelosi to be the next speaker of the house and if you want to stop sending people like gorsuch to the supreme court you have to expand your tent rather than hunting for heretics. >> i would much rather have a prolife supporter -- democrats are at a big moment and these moments come about politically. we'll have to make decisions. depending on the road we travel will determine the place we land in. we may land in minority for a while if we don't come to grips an

but let me just say something which may sound heretical. but it is neither pro trump nor pro putin. and i am neither. i reported from moscow for more than 30 years. to say that it is in the united states' national security interests to have a working partnership with russia on nuclear issues, on resolving the syria conflict -- >> anything slightly discordant until this era of trump where he made everything strange in this country. >> but lawrence, there is a demonization of those in this country today who argue that we need a de-escation of conflict with russia. it is not pro-trump nor pro-putin. the iran nuclear agreement, which i know your show has championed and which we must salvage from trump and his generals who see iran in the crosshairs would not have happened without russia's partnership. so i just wanted to register that. because it's not crazy man trump. it's not authoritarian leader putin. it's about really the security of this country. >> general clark, the relationship with russia that katrina said we should be aiming for is what everyone agreed on right through the 19

.> yes we have e an internal plan heret the c church.nd not only at this church, also at the church where ingrid is, who is at the otother church in mountain view. she has been in sanctuary for over three months. both churches are part of the metro denver sanctuary coalition, and each church has an emergency plan. i am also prepared. before coming here, i prepared a family plan ice in case were to go to my house. part of the plan with my children was that one of them would be filming and the other would be calling people from a list i gave them. and here we have a similar p pl. so i am prepared and so are the people here. we hope that donald trump will respect t these spaces. it would look wrong frorom a mol standpoioint if you came afterer mothers who are just fighting for ththeir families. amy: you are receieiving death threats? >> i have been receiving several hate messages from men and women through facebook. amy: in the police captain can do say he supports you? >> yes. they have come in person to offer support. they have asked us t

we're just slaughtering the whole towns, whole villages and they had some christians along with some heretics and we can't sort them out in the cardinal said no, kill them all, god won't know the difference. that's actually very good theology. you have a christian, you know why you should play them. but we know it's wrong. it's horrible. it is 16th century, the english went through france and french wouldn't come out onthe side . but he went up and have to destroy all the victories so they pulled down the tom and destroyed the vineyards. anything, there was so much economic damage, poisoning the wellthat would bring an army out . so that the distinction i made earlier with shakespeare. >> that if you forget the law , that you kill those brought back but not to reach around them. and the certain thing in law, there was a terrible court in the second rule of law, we have areas of children coming from. i think it's splendid that you have rules of engagement. after all, what do we fight for? we don't fight for our country, we are fighting for a civilization. fighting for a way of life. we're figh

but we are in a tough spot heret and to mitigate a crisis is to have some sort of channel with them. think that's what we need to do. >> tucker: you think that's possible?ne if the united states government announced we're talking with north korea, there would be an immediate uproar, legitimizingof the stalinist regime. >> this is how you have to do it. the trump administration wouldit be wise not to announce that on twitter or something like that, but i think you can go through backchannel, they could actually help us with this in a veryy pragmatic way. different european back channels you can go to and go to the regime and say look, let's have an open ended dialogue. there is no vietcong ploy, nothing specific in the agenda, let's build trust, let's try to talk this through. >> tucker: a couple of questions. how quick could this spin out of control? >> very quickly. in all honesty, you have this s heavily armed militarized zone with hundreds of thousands of troops, let's just say a north korean soldier gets nervous and fires off a bullet. imagine a south korean sentry fires off anot

sergeant first class elvaro, his wife tammy, making that a personal presentation of the purple heart heret the whi house there were senior staffers at work on a very big week for the president. it is of course leading up to the 100-day mark and the white house is trying to do two things, downplay how significant 100 days is in terms of accomplishments, but at the same time embracing it to provide their own list of things they've been successful at. from executive orders to showing support for the military as in today and also the president's views on a lot of different topics that we will hear more of in the coming week. one of those will be tax reform and tax cuts. not something that's ready for congress to really act on, but he will unveil his plan to reduce taxes and change the tax system. that's a long-term plan. also, the white house is still hoping to see a repeal of the health care law obamacare, but advisors do caution that they don't know if that is something that can be accomplished any time soon with continuing divisions among house republicans. so it is a big week. and the pres

i'm a bit of a heretic about it. it seems to me tha many economic issues and many economic successes. but this shall. >> and always a large role of the state. >> a huge role of the state and the economy. >> you know, someone suns said to me in france you have to understand france is the one country where communism worked. and i think that that is in large part true. but that issue shall. >> you know yesterday, maybe. >> but that issue of identity-- identity versus cosmopolitanism is pervasive t is the thread that runs through all of these events it seems to me. >> pop lism in every election. >> right. >> that is a cultural factor too. >> i think adam touches upon, like did you or do you benefit from some sort of broad sense of globalization, international brussels, europe or du not. and if you do, it is macron. and if you do in the benefit from all of those international factors, open culture, international culture and globalization, then you tend to vote either extreme left or extreme right. >> i also wonder beyond

author of a number of books including on the topic tonight bad religion how we became a nation of heretics. he's contributed to a range of publications including the regular columnist for one of our daily newspapers. [applause] [laughter] next to him is the founder of public square strategies focusing on faith and politics. he directed for president barack obama blank 2012 campaign and served as one of the youngest staffers in history and helped the engagement on issues like adoption and efforts against human trafficking in his excellent new book, reclaiming hope, lessons learned in the obama white house just came out this year, so welcome, michael. jacqueline is the director of the black church and policy studies that dedicated the movement at home and abroad and holds a phd from harvard university where she was a doctoral fellow at the john f. kennedy school of government. and with her husband, welcomed by eugene. she cofounded the community center in massachusetts so she has been doing a lot of the work that we have been hearing about and she's also a contributor and next to me here rai

. >> given what you just said and also the heretical ideas earlier, just wondering if you can speak to the list on abuse in the current property tax system, suchlike the homestead deduction if you didn't have a property tax. so if a tax payer would never really quite understand what i'm getting us property taxes go up here to see an increase in services i'm using. >> are you a baltimore resident? >> now, but i taxes are high. last not >> well, that is a tough one. like i said, we rely on property tax for general revenue. the homestead tax credit is fair. the state requires the cap of at least 10% in the assessment year to year. one of the more taxpayer friendly cats and is constantly discussion about should we increase it up to 10%. we resist that because the dead that was one of the things that really helped us. we had stored up all this homestead tax credit. i was asked all the time why is my property tax bill still going up in the house is going down or should mark that is because the market value, the full cash value is way above the taxable value there is going up 4% a year and on

i am going to be heretical. he will hate me from the grave. i don't think he was particularly eloquent in his opinions. his essays, yes. plutarch could not write better. his opinions were getting the job done. she had a great capacity -- he had a great capacity for knowing what the real euclidean point was, if something would rise or fall. there i think he was helpful to the parties and their clients. he had enough experience in the world and sensitive to language that he could clarify the law in a way that many other judges would shrink from doing. he realized his task as an appellate lawyer was to get to the nub of what made this a distinct case. we have relatively few judges that go from district court to court of appeals. there are really few judges that have this rich redolent life in the world, private practice, diving into harvard archives, as he did. what i would love to have done is published in some form his essays that he wrote as a kid. extent of the judge that he became in history. he could have became a marvelous historian. one o

[laughing] >> i'm going to be heretical now. he will hate me from the grave. i don't think is usually particularly eloquent in his opinions. his essays, yes. his essays were gorgeous, lapidary. his opinions were going to business. they were getting the job done but he had a great capacity for knowing again what the real euclidean point was or if something would rise or fall. and in that i think he was very helpful to the parties and their client. because oftentimes he had enough experience in the world, and yet enough sensitivity to language that he could clarify the law in a way that many other judges would shrink from doing. he really understood that part of his task, particularly as an appellate lawyer and was to try to give guidance to the future. not by being didactic or pretentious but just time to really get to the nub of what make this a distinct case. we had relatively few judges i think even you go from district court to court of appeals, some do, but there are really two judges who have had this kind of paulson, rich, redolent life in the world come

, not only tries to shame people and stifle stigmatization but when they call for prosecution of heretical views which has been done by senator whitehouse and representative lou and a group of academics that we like to for the rico 20 act and of course the attorneys general for clean power , led by mister snyderman of new york. this is an attempt now to silence and chill speech through the threat of litigation and prosecution so that's a big thing but one thing, i mean i appreciate this idea of government funding team b or red teams who would look at alternative hypothesis but maybe that's what can be done but ultimately the ideal as far as i'm concerned would be to separate science from state. as much as possible. why is it that we don't have these sorts of controversies in the religious realm? it's because religion is privately funded in the united states. eisenhower in his farewell speech warned of this very problem that we are seeing and a lot of people just remember this as his warning about a military-industrial complex but he also warned about the quote, " steadily increasing share

it is demonstrated empirecally now by anybody except a few heretics that if you reduce inequality, you have more growth. and it is more sustainable. so that's also critically important. third bonus, you have a more diversified economy that has more exports, more trade with each other and it's really also a growth booster. so from those three points of view, it's critically important to bring women to the table. why don't they come? well, i think we have something to do about it. and that's the energizing part. i will be activist for a second if you allow me. there are at the moment, some pension funds, some big investors who are saying to the companies in which they've invested give us the numbers. tell us what is the gender difference between searles at the same level and a lot of them are saying oh, we're doing so much already. it's okay. you know, we are heading in the right direction. no. give us the numbers. and then we can measure and then we can move forward. [ applause ] >> maybe we stick with numbers for a moment because there are studies, there is research that companies havi
