The United States has long been the exception to the rule that religion dies off with progress, material wealth, and a pluralistic culture. But CT's cover story, The French Reconnection, shows that the rule may not even apply on its home turf. While atheism is dying as a cultural force, the French are beginning a renewal of faith. Below we've collected other articles on secularism and the renewal of faith. It turns out reports of God's death have been greatly exaggerated.
