YouTube Description
as posted by the channelOriginal Episode Here
Spanish caller Rob questions why humanist and secular organizations aren't more politically active or running candidates, especially compared to religious groups. Hosts Matt and John explain that 501(c)(3) tax-exempt status prevents organizations from endorsing specific candidates, though they can discuss issues and create voter guides. Matt reveals his frustration with humanist organizations' lack of visibility and impact, while also expressing pessimism about America's readiness for openly atheist politicians. The discussion touches on the Congressional Freethought Caucus, challenges facing secular candidates, and the hosts' frustration with both organizational ineffectiveness and the current political climate. Rob contrasts this with Spain's more secular youth culture.
