I'm just finishing the Philip Pullman trilogy, His Dark Materials. They are children's books but seem to have grabbed people's attention. Even my good friend Jean who is nearly 80 has had a go at reading one of them. Ordinarily I wouldn't have contemplated reading children's books like this. It's a strange mixture of science, modern and post-modern thought added with some over active imagination and a large lump of pick and mix theology. I was prompted to have a look as a result of a theology book about being human by Jane Craske. I'm either very confident in my faith or way off beam...but it has made me question just how much of an athiest he is.
