Trent Horn: Can a Catholic be a Socialist?
Can a Catholic be a socialist? Can a libertarian be a Catholic? Just asking questions.
Today’s guest, Trent Horn, is an apologist and speaker for Catholic Answers and a defender of capitalism. He hosts The Counsel of Trent podcast and has authored several books on Catholicism, including Can a Catholic Be a Socialist? In this episode, we discuss the themes of that book, respond to some of the anti-capitalist rhetoric that has come from the Vatican over the past decade, analyze the rise of “post-liberal” Catholics on the right, and question whether religion is becoming more palatable to the modern person.
Watch the full conversation on Reason‘s YouTube channel or the Just Asking Questions podcast feed on Apple, Spotify, or your preferred podcatcher.
