If you live in a part of the country that was originally settled by Puritans or Quakers you will probably live a lot longer than if you live in a region colonized by the Scots, the Irish, or that was dominated by slavery. A new article explores why this is true, and we discuss how immigration patterns from 200 years ago even impacts how we read the Bible. UK broadcast, speaker, and host of the Unbelievable? Podcast, Justin Brierley, is back to discuss his new book, \\u201cThe Surprising Rebirth of Belief in God.\\u201d In it he documents how the same political divisions and culture war issues that are dividing the church have also ruptured the New Atheism movement, and how that\\u2019s leading more academics and intellectuals to reconsider the claims of Christianity. Also this week\\u2014the internet prevents dementia, and what books can we still burn in Denmark?
