Apologies for Paul's audio glitches, we had some minor technical issues!

My guest today is Paul Seabright, Professor of Economics at the University of Toulouse and the author of a new book 'The Divine Economy: How Religions Compete for Wealth, Power, and People.'

We spoke about what membership of a religious community offers people, and why it isn't necessarily irrational for poor people to give a large proportion of their income to their religious institutions. We also discussed the role that religious organisations can play in matchmaking and the ways in which Darwinian forces affect the success of different denominations.

In the extended version of the episode, we spoke about what really motivates religious violence.
