The latest New Statesman is a special issue on God and belief. Some of the more interesting pieces are:

• Kingdoms not of this world
• AN Wilson on his return to faith after a period of atheism
• CS Lewis: fiction and faith, by James Macintyre
• What God means to me
• Please, let’s not do God, by Christopher Hitchens
• Some interesting quotes on religion. My favourite: ‘I don’t believe in the after life, although I am bringing a change of underwear’ (Woody Allen)
