About this sermon
A new study examines the US states that are the most friendly and least friendly to religious non-profit organizations. The numbers come from the Napa Legal Institute. They examined the ways the 50 states and Washington DC protect freedoms from faith-based groups. At the top of the list are Alabama and Texas, while Michigan and Nevada had the lowest overall ratings. Napa Legal Institute Vice President and Executive Director, Mary Margaret Beecher, joins to tell us more about the faith and freedom index and the criteria and methodology used in compiling the list. Beecher shares which states were the best, which were the worst and overall how well states treat faith-based organizations. She explains whether there are any plans to distribute these numbers to lawmakers or even faith-based organizations. Beecher discusses whether there were any surprises in the study this year and what this study signals for the future of religious freedom in the US. She fills us in on any final thoughts. ------------ EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
