Religion writer prize winner says religious knowledge vital in
today's world


Geneva (ENI). The recipient of the 2001 John Templeton "European
Religion Writer of the Year" prize, Henri Tincq of the daily
newspaper Le Monde, has asserted at a ceremony in Paris that
religious knowledge is critical to understanding today's world.
"The religious dimension has become essential to any analysis of
the contemporary world," Tincq, who runs the religion desk at Le
Monde, said at the 19 September award ceremony held in the
offices of the French Protestant Federation. The award is
administered by the Conference of European Churches on behalf of
the US-based John Templeton Foundation. [250 words, ENI-02-0311]
