"Economist" on religion & public life


The The Economist(yes I do feel strange and sullied) have a cover story about religion in public life and politics. What makes it all the more interesting is that (although there's no way you'd know as the "forget" to mention it) 7 years ago they published an obituary for god as they thought he (sic) was irrelevant...

Why? I love the Economist!

Because I'm more of a New Statesman kind of guy... I find the Economist is often to far to the right for me... (either that or I'm too far to the left!)

Hej Andrew!

A friend of mine subscribes to the New Internationalist. - One of the best mags I'v seen on social justice issues. Research and interviews. I think you would like it.

By the way - What's up with your SWOTD? Why Swedish? Just curious...

yep, I've enjoyed the NI in the past,its a good read.

Swedish? Well hopefully we'll move over there next year so I need to make more of an effort to learn the language!
