With 84% of the world population being believers (a percentage that will increase in the coming decades) religion is a real factor in the daily life of the vast majority of humanity. But it also plays a central role in the living together of people and nations. Since religion is not just a personal opinion of individuals, but an individual and collective way of understanding the whole of our reality, covering religion is essentially covering everything: from politics to poverty and peace, from sports to sex and gender.
