Editorial Reviews:
First Things is a journal of ideas that examines the most interesting -- and often controversial -- issues arising at the crossroads of religion and public life today. It begins with the premise that to understand American society -- and where it is headed it is necessary to understand its religious life and values.

Summary: It's the top: intellectual, funny, and religious all at once
Comment: If you have never picked up a copy of "First Things" you need to do so today. There is simply nothing else even remotely like it. No amount of praise could be too lavish for this magazine.

"First Things" an interfaith religious magazine. Yes, I said religious, a word hovering on the brink of the suspect list lately. The magazine does lean to Catholic and Protestant issues, although I have read articles by Jewish writers as well.

In this month's issue (May 08) there are articles on whether or not Shakespeare was Catholic, the ethics of immigration, a very interesting article on marriage, and a warm and personal reflection on William F Buckley. Also a comparison between hard-core atheists like Nietzsche, Freud, and Marx, and the new, soft-core atheists like Dawkins and Hitchens, who call God evil, even though "in order to make such value judgements one must assume, as the hard-core atheists are honest enough to acknowledge, that there exists somewhere, in some mode of being, a realm of rightness that does not owe its existence completely to human invention, Darwinian selection, or social construction (p 75).

You need it to keep abreast of the gossip about the breakup of your favorite mainline denomination and the outrages of liturgical dumb bunnies! To cleanse your mind after an hour spent watching the bilge that television producers call entertainment! To keep your sanity as western civilization collapses!

You need it as a gift to a student leaving to be brainwashed in one of our universities.

You need it as the perfect gift for those atheist friends of yours who claim all believers are barely sentient.

And, of course, it is an obviously necessary gift to yourself.

Summary: First Things First Rate!
Comment: First Things magazine is a valuable guide to faith, culture & world events. It represents eccumanism of CS Lewis' "Mere Christianity" veriety, not of the lowest common denominator.
If you want to know what commited & intelligent believers are thinking & talking about, look no further!
