The Thief
Le Voleur is French for the Thief. In 1828, during the birth and rise of the newspaper, Emile de Girardin had a novel idea on how to use the newest writing technology, the printing press. He and a friend decided to start a periodical, but since they lacked capital, the weekly was entitled Le Voleur (The Thief) and it reprinted the best articles that had appeared elsewhere during the week, saving editorial costs.

Web exclusive: 'How should we study religion?' by Daniel Dennett | Prospect Magazine March 2006 issue 120
"A philosopher and a theologian debate the correct approach to the study of religion
Daniel Dennet/ Richard Swinburne"
I haven't read this yet, but I have read some books by Richard Swinburne in a class I had freshmen year of college that was basically a discussion & debate of science/religion/philosophy. To this day, one of the best courses. It was just an environment to be open minded, curious about the big questions, and okay w/ not having all the answers. We were talking about intelligent design years before all the recent hoopla has politicized the topic. Anyway, check this link out.
