C473: A Christian Nation?: Christianity in the American state in Splash! Fall 2009 (Oct. 03, 2009)
In this class we will discuss the role of Christianity in the American state. We will ask whether a secular state is ideal or even possible. We will talk about the concept of the separation of church and state, the evolution debate, and the role of civil religion in America. We will look historically at the development of Christianity's place in the state, comparatively at contemporary societies, and with an eye to the future of religion in the American state. The class will look at primary sources and will be discussion-based.
