Summary
In this episode of UnSpun , we examine a phenomenon hiding in plain sight — the rise of civil religion . From stadium memorials that look like worship services to presidents who sound like preachers, faith and politics have fused into something new — and dangerous. We trace how America’s patriotic rituals became sacred texts, how global leaders have learned the same language, and what happens when dissent becomes heresy.
