		<description><![CDATA[	In November of last year, in NOMA: Science and Religion, we outlined Stephen Jay Gould&#8217;s attempt to counter the charge that science and religion are at odds, and how he instead suggests that each oversees a domain where&nbsp;tools necessary for meaningful discourse and resolution are possessed. Science, Gould charges, is meant to document the factual [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[	It seems that whenever I highlight a musical piece here, the particular musician in question is not one I particularly care for (example:&nbsp;Billy Joel). While Avril Lavigne will&nbsp;always naturally be an exception to this rule, Neil Diamond is not. However&#8230;from his latest album Home Before Dark (2008), I would like to&nbsp;highlight &quot;Pretty Amazing Grace.&quot; Working [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[	Thirty years ago (and little has changed) Hans Kung identified the reality that when Christianity is confronted by the world religions, which also&nbsp;seek to reveal truth and provide a path to salvation and when Christianity is placed in a pluralistic setting, where it is only one of many attempts, the question emerges&nbsp;&quot;What is there special [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[	I was drawn to an interview&nbsp;with an American Catholic theologian who was recently (although now it&#8217;s several years old) asked: &quot;Who do you think has the most to teach us about being Catholic, about being the Church, as we move into the 21st century?&quot; After reflecting on the difficulty of answering, the theologian answered that [...]]]></description>

	Campolo&#8217;s latest work is a series of 21 letters, addressed to two young Evangelicals, Timothy and Junia. Campolo admits the inspiration for such a concept (and the&nbsp;names too) lie with the Apostle Paul, who wrote for the same reason that he, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[	I have had a great deal of time over the last year to reaqcuaint myself with children&#8217;s literature (particularly that which appeals to those aged 9 to 13). I intentionally&nbsp;bypassed anything recent. An exception&nbsp;however is Lemony Snicket whose A Series of Unfortunate Events has brought me a great deal of enjoyment.
