Episode Details

Western man is told he faces a binary choice:

➡️ Religious pluralism

➡️ Establishmentarianism

But what if that’s a false dilemma?

In this episode of The Magistrate, Josh Howard and James Baird respond to Andrew T. Walker’s recent comments and the broader debate surrounding religion and the state. Drawing from historic Reformed and Presbyterian political theology, they argue that the modern conversation has lost an entire category — one that shaped early America and Protestant thought for centuries.

This isn’t about choosing between two extremes. It’s about recovering a forgotten framework.
