TALARICO: “And I‘ve also been the most vocal defender of the separation of church and state. I was raised to believe that that separation in our First Amendment, in the establishment clause and the free exercise clause is a sacred boundary that doesn‘t just benefit the state, doesn‘t just benefit democracy, but it also benefits the church. Because when the church gets too cozy with political power, it loses its prophetic voice. So I think this is a, a unconstitutional decision. I also think it‘s a deeply UN-Christian decision because we are supposed to be loving all of our neighbors, particularly our neighbors of other faiths.”
