UK secularism debate
1 December 2007 · Comments
When checking out The Times‘ coverage of Darth Benedict’s recent theonastic diatribe (:-)) I noticed a link to a debate between (humanist) philosopher David Papineau, (sikh) occasional Thought for the Day presenter Inderjit Singh and (christian) theologian and co-director of Ekklesia Simon Barrow concerning religion in public life and whether a modern plural society requires a neutral (i.e. secular) state, chaired by Guardian columnist Polly Toynbee.
You can download a recording of the debate (MP3 format) from The Times‘ web site above, or directly from here.
