2 Wales Public Theology Summit CICC 8 October 2015 Doing God today: Christianity in Public Life Nick Spencer
3 [Labour Party Conference] Monday morning, 8.15am, and the British Humanist Association is hosting its noprayer annual breakfast. The bacon butties are long gone by the time shadow business secretary Angela Eagle launches her attack on Tim Farron. At a time when we have a huge revival of fundamentalist religious belief, we have a newly elected leader of the Liberal Democrats who is an evangelical Christian who believes in the literal truth of the bible. He does. He just doesn t want to talk about it a lot because he knows how much it will embarrass his own party. It is a reminder that fundamentalism takes many forms. Guardian, 30 September 2015
