Durham Cathedral Institute: In God We Trust? Religion and the State

7:30pm

Nearly 250 years after the United States Declaration of Independence enshrined the principle of separation between church and state, questions about the relationship between religion and political authority remain both contested and crucial. Commentators note the influence of Christian denominations, particularly from the so-called evangelical right, in determining the outcome of US elections.  And across the United States, the UK and other Western democracies, faith continues to shape public life in ways that challenge, inform and sometimes divide us.
