  • When Religion Declines

    When a religious group promotes left-wing causes, the emptier its pews become. This seems an unbreakable rule, yet those who propagate politics from the pulpit seem not to have noticed that the Greens and their like make poor guides on the path to salvation

    His Orientalism has done much to shape and twist perceptions of students and Islamists backing Hamas.
