Patrick McGrath and Martin Amis discuss doubt, Pascal’s approach to faith, a plausible refutation of religion, the nepotistic figure of Christ, hadith and the theological gamble of suicide bombings, time and its eternal return, end-time theology, and similarities between Ronald Reagan and Mahmoud Ahmadinejad during a conversation that took place at the 2006 PEN World Voices Festival.
