Hi <<Name>>,

This week, we announce the SPI World Future Guide 2016!

It's our annual policy guide for politicians worldwide, with top academic recommendations from ten SPI Fellows in seven countries.

You'll find views on health, law, education, defense, and analysis of the Middle East and much more.

Also in this issue, which religions attract people from which races? The followers of Judaism and Hinduism are easy to guess, but what about Islam and Mormonism?

SPI Fellow Taslima Nasreen writes about women's freedom in the context of religion, and we highlight coalition members who also have world-class thought and analysis in their magazines and newsletters.

SPI's World Policy Guide 2016

Edwina Rogers
If reason is the best way to make decisions, bring the world's top thinkers to the world's most important decisions!

We announce our 2016 policy guide, bringing ten SPI Fellows from seven countries together to give wide-ranging advice to politicians worldwide.

Numbers: People of Which Race Choose Which Religion?

Johnny Monsarrat
A recent Pew Study broke down the religious people of the United States by ethnicity. Only 85% of Mormons are white, but only 36% of Jehovah's Witnesses.

Can you guess how many nonbelievers are non-white?

Fellows: Can Women Be Truly Free Without Secularism?

Johnny Monsarrat
In this week's Fellows report, do religions keep women down, and is secularism the answer? See this video lecture by SPI Fellow Taslima Nasreen.

Also, can animals switch diets over time?

What's Our Moral Obligation to Syrian Refugees?

Johnny Monsarrat
After the Paris attacks, should we limit Muslim refugees from Syria?

One author suggests that Christian fundamentalists are no safer than Muslim ones.
