God Is Back! No, He's Not!

[Moochie]

Interesting, thought-provoking reading in bookland. Both reviews from the NYT.

God Is Back! (http://www.nytimes.com/2009/04/26/books/review/Rosin-t.html?8bu&emc=bua2) I like this for the way it links the woo economy to modern capitalism.


No, He's Not! (http://www.nytimes.com/2009/04/26/books/review/Oppenheimer-t.html?8bu&emc=bua2) One person's journey in and out of religion. Well, almost.

“The very things that were supposed to destroy religion — democracy and markets, technology and reason — are combining to make it stronger"

I didn't read the entire review but this statement is wrong. In fact the most recent survey shows almost all religion as slowly fading and agnostic/atheist on the rise.
