This is the first intermission of đ¯, listed as season 1 episode 7 for filing purposes. In this episode, TracingWoodgrains, MasterThief, The Sultan Of Swing, XantosCell, and Unsaying discuss religious community.
This discussion was originally slated to be released as an episode of the The Bailey podcast, but eventually it was decided that it should be published elsewhere instead, and so it finds its home here, at đ¯.
The image used in the video is Julius Schnorr von Carolsfeld's Pentecost woodcut for "Die Bibel in Bildern", 1860:

Notes -
And also by secular non fundamentalists motivated by the more important tax deduction for the 3rd child.
Tax systems should not be neglected in birth rates. Germany gives you tax credits for being married, but none for having children. Together with a well-functioning system of child care, France does taxing families right - and this is reflected in births.
