Jerome Kopolsky

Join philosophy professor Kevin Vallier, who explores the complexities of Catholic integralism, and Jerome Kopolsky, a research fellow focused on the American founding. They delve into how integralism and Protestant nationalism intersect, and why integralism isn't inherently nationalist. Kopolsky unpacks the intentions of America's founders, discussing whether the U.S. was meant to be a Christian nation. The conversation also touches on the persistent public religious establishments and the emergence of religious pluralism, illustrating the intricate relationship between faith and politics.
