In this thought-provoking episode, Divisive Measures explores how religious belief can be both a force for unity and a catalyst for division. From the fine line between spirituality and extremism to the rise of religious nationalism, we unpack how faith is wielded in political, cultural, and ideological battles. We also spotlight the exclusion of marginalized communities by faith-based institutions, challenging listeners to examine the ethics and impact of belief systems.Religious Beliefs Cited to Discriminate Against Women, LGBTQ - Good Faith Media“All We Want is Equality”: Religious Exemptions and Discrimination against LGBT People in the United States | HRW
