What happens when faith collides with law in modern society?

In this episode of Uncommon Sense in Current Times, I sit down again with Dr. Stephen Law, philosopher and humanist, to dive deeper into the political implications of faith, secularism and morality in public life. From equality legislation to conscientious objection, this conversation explores the tensions between religious conviction and humanist principles in shaping modern law.

If you’ve ever asked:

“Should religion have special privilege in government and law?”

This conversation is your wake-up call.

📌 In this episode, we uncover:

✅ Why humanism is “atheism plus” commitments to political secularism and moral autonomy

✅ How equality laws on LGBTQ+ rights intersect with religious conscience

✅ The debate over bakers, abortion and conscientious objection under law

✅ Why Dr. Law thinks religious objections should carry no more legal weight than secular ones

✅ The reality vs. perception of religious persecution cases in the media
