Ross Douthat on American Religion and Where Martin Luther was Right and Wrong

On this episode, New York Times Opinion columnist Ross Douthat tells Russell Moore where he's wrong on Catholicism and American culture. Kind of.
Their discussion plays by the "Tell Me Where I'm Wrong" rules: Moore is only allowed to ask questions that seek to understand the guest's point of view, and if he starts to argue, the guest is supposed to stop him.

Hey Russell: You are great. Engaging. Able to interview across theological differences. I am a liberal progressive and also "washed in the blood" and a former American Roman Catholic. Currently attending an Episcopal Church. Keep talking! This soothes my soul.
