Today’s Reading List - August 25, 2006
The new Pew Religion and Public Life survey is out. I have only had a chance to skim it, but it looks relatively unremarkable to me. The “religion and science” section seems most interesting from my perspective. As a scientist (I majored in Chemistry in undergrad and grad school) the very idea of polling on something that should be decided by data is kind of astonishing. Anyway, when looking at this analysis and this analysis you’d think they looked at two different studies. Hats off to Sager at RCP blog for linking to the study with his analysis and not leaving the reader at his personal analytical mercy.
Looks like election ‘08 is starting to move from the political junkie circles to the general public eye with pieces on Fox and in the NYTimes.
Last-minute Add: Nice little profile. Now what I am wondering is, where are the counter voices? I have heard “The Question” - this piece seems to say it’s answered in the positive, but no one ever has owned up to the negative. I find this interesting, perhaps troubling…. Lowell: Power Line comments further.
An Even Later Last-minute Add from Lowell:Â Hugh Hewitt writes about “Romney on a roll” — and Hugh’s not talking about a sandwich.
