Religion and Politics

With more religious groups voicing their opinions in the political arena due to issues such as civil unions and same sex marriages, this week's panel discusses how to the deal with the diversity of religious perspectives in politics. Guests include Father Mark Alexander, Vicar General and Diocesan Theologian of the Catholic Diocese of Honolulu; John Hoag, Director of Public Affairs of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints; Rev. John Heidel, United Church of Christ Minister and President of Interfaith Alliance Hawaii; and Rabbi Peter Schaktman of Temple Emanu-El. The panel will also field viewer questions and comments sent in via phone, e-mail, and Twitter. Contributing editor Howard Dicus files his weekly "Everybody's Business" report on the state of Hawaii's economy and places the show's topic in an economic context.
