Religious trend-spotting

Interesting interview with Philip Jenkins, probably best known for his excellent The Next Christendom, on the future of Christianity, Islam in Europe, terrorism, American religiosity, etc.

The thing I like about Jenkins is that, although he tends to write for conservative publications, he strikes me as first and foremost a patient social scientist, not someone with an ideological axe to grind.

  1. This sounds like a very interesting read.

  2. Lee, I agree with your assessment. I just finished The Next Christendom and pretty much thought exactly what you wrote. It lends credence to his scholarship.
