Added the Unitarian Universalist Church of Spokane YouTube lecture Separation of Church and State Requires Equal Rights for Everyone, Including Atheists (2026) by Edward Tabash to the Videos category on the Secular Web.
In this under a half-hour lecture to the Unitarian Universalist Church of Spokane (Washington state) on February 22, 2026, Los Angeles constitutional lawyer Eddie Tabash—and 29-year member of the Board of Trustees of Americans United for Separation of Church and State—shares his expertise in demonstrating that there can be no church/state separation without equal rights for atheists. The history of the crafting of the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment demonstrates that the Framers intentionally designed the First Amendment to require that nonbelievers have equal rights. Tabash discusses how this perspective leads to the truth that no branch of government is permitted to favor believers over nonbelievers such that believers and nonbelievers are equal under the law.
