Morals, Mosques and Meditation

William Crawley and guests debate the week's religious and ethical news and explore the world of culture and ideas. Including News.

The Ground Zero mosque debate has many asking if America is islamophobic. Cal Thomas doesn't think so, but he thinks there should be a cap on the number of mosques permitted in the US. Michael Burleigh talks about his new moral history of the second world war. But what makes a moral history 'moral'? We'll also hear about the plight of the Birmingham Three and ask the Catholic church's spokesman why they sent two priests and a brother into forced exile just months before the Pope was to visit their community house. And yoga has been banned in some churches. Is it really a dangerous entanglement for Christians, or are churches tying themselves up in knots unneccesarily?
