/502/ Their Own Personal Jesus ft. Lamorna Ash


Listen Later

On the "return of religion" in Britain.

[Patreon Exclusive]

Journalist Lamorna Ash talks to George and Alex about how and why young people might be turning to religion today.

  • Have things moved on from the New Atheists and their critique of religion?

  • What are the divides in Christianity today? How do culture wars over sexuality play out?

  • Why do ritual, quiet, and the 'new monasticism’ hold appeal today?

  • Is Gen Z's pessimism a type of apocalyptic thinking? Is it related to environmentalism?

    The After Party, following the interview, is at 00:51:30.
