    Freedom of Religion: If you want it for yourself, you have to want it for others too

    On this week's episode, we discussed the free exercise clause of the first amendment. Specifically we discussed what the limits are for a person's free exercise of religion. Once conclusion we came to was that a person's freedom of religion ends when that freedom starts to take away someone else's constitutional rights.

    Assembling a Cabinet like it was Purchased at IKEA

    In this episode, we discussed President-elect Trump's cabinet picks. Trump's selections are very clearly political favors for those who have been most loyal to him. Even though it has often been done the same way in the past, it does beg the question: Why can't we have a president who will select cabinet members based on experience, expertise, and qualifications instead of loyalty to the president?

    No Matter the Result, We Should Accept the Result

    Even if we don't like the results of an election, it's important to accept the results, especially once all legal challenges are exhausted. Continuing to insist that an election was stolen when there's no evidence is bad for everyone. If there are issues with the voting system, we should try to fix them, not just fight about them.
