Podcast (7MB Mp3)of Dr. Bruce Prescott's 7-5-09 "Religious Talk" radio program. As a corrective to Oklahoma State Representative Sally Kern's "Proclamation for Theocracy" and Hobby Lobby's full-page newspaper advertisements for Christian Nationalism, Dr. Prescott recites James Madison's "Memorial and Remonstrance" in its entirety. Madison was the author of the U.S. Constitution and the author of the Bill of Rights and the First Amendment. His "Memorial and Remonstrance" (1785) is the definitive document for understanding the original intention of the framer of the U.S. Constitution regarding relations between church and state.
