11/8/22 On The Mark: Mark Lawrence & Joe McGranaghan host Brantley Gasaway, Professor of Religious Studies, Bucknell University, calls in with his insights on the political division in the US, the bitter mid-term election battles, and  ‘Christian Nationalist’ movement that is an integral part of the conversation about gubernatorial candidate Doug Mastriano’s (R) campaign. We got his view of conservative’s glomming onto the Christian theme, but not necessarily throwing their full support behind candidate Sen. Mastriano and other far right candidates. We talked about the political battle between religion and evil, far right and far left candidates, and why the electorate is so glad to pick sides.


During open phones, we continued our conversation about religion and politics, Sen. Mastriano, Dr. Oz' Muslim faith, Josh Shapiro's Jewish faith, Gov. Rendell (Jewish) and Milton Shapp (Jewish).
