Dr. King's 1963 Letter from a Birmingham Jail: Do we need organized religion? w/Abhishek Kasid (Vinni), Ranjan Wali (Tinku), and Sunny Sharma
Manage episode 440481900 series 3601276
Join Sunny Sharma with his elder, insightful, and informative cousins in a discussion around some of the themes highlighted by Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King's most famous piece of writing from 1963 called Letter from a Birmingham Jail. We discuss such ideas as the need to break unjust laws in a society, moral authority to confront societal despotism, and most importantly whether there is a place for organized religion in the world today when so many young people are leaving religious institutions.
Is the modern day world organized in a way to no longer need saints or social reformers?
Do the church and other religious institutions only get involved in politics when there are not enough saints?
Tune in to hear us engage with these questions.
