EP003: The Outlaw Philosopher goes to the AZ Supreme Court

One professor. One state university. And a single question that could decide whether any Christian employee in Arizona ever gets their day in court again. Recorded on the eve of oral arguments, this episode of The Outlaw Philosopher finds Dr. Owen Anderson — professor of philosophy and religious studies at Arizona State University — hours away from facing the Arizona Supreme Court. But the fight tomorrow isn't about the DEI training itself. It's more dangerous than that: ASU's lawyers — the same firm Hillary Clinton hired in 2016 — are arguing that Anderson has no standing to sue at all. That a state employee simply can't take his employer to court, no matter what the law says. With co-host Jorge Gil, Owen lays out what's really on the line. If he loses, the ruling wouldn't just shield one university — it would hand every state institution in Arizona a "golden pass": require the training, silence the dissenters, and leave teachers, police officers, and professors with no one left to hold them accountable. If he wins, the doors to trial swing open — and ASU's administrators finally answer, under oath, for a training that brands America a white-supremacist nation and Christianity a colonizer. This is the episode about the quiet strategy institutions use to silence believers before the argument even begins — the "million little paper cuts" bleeding the university dry — and why, as Owen puts it, when man rewrites God's law, the faithful have to become outlaws. "The Lord is my light." Pray for a good outcome. Dr. Owen Anderson — Christian Apologist. Philosopher. Writer. Co-hosted by Jorge Gil. Produced by Worldview Media. New episodes weekly.
