  • (Dis)Believing and Belonging: Investigating the Narratives of Young British Atheists1
    (Dis)Believing and Belonging: Investigating the Narratives of Young British Atheists1 REBECCA CATTO Coventry University JANET ECCLES Independent Researcher Abstract The development and public prominence of the ‘New Atheism’ in the West, particularly the UK and USA, since the millennium has occasioned considerable growth in the study of ‘non-religion and secularity’. Such work is uncovering the variety and complexity of associated categories, different public figures, arguments and organi- zations involved. There has been a concomitant increase in research on youth and religion. As yet, however, little is known about young people who self-identify as atheist, though the statistics indicate that in Britain they are the cohort most likely to select ‘No religion’ in surveys. This article addresses this gap with presentation of data gathered with young British people who describe themselves as atheists. Atheism is a multifaceted identity for these young people developed over time and through experience. Disbelief in God and other non-empirical propositions such as in an afterlife and the efficacy of homeopathy and belief in progress through science, equality and freedom are central to their narratives. Hence belief is taken as central to the sociological study of atheism, but understood as formed and performed in relationships in which emotions play a key role. In the late modern context of contemporary Britain, these young people are far from amoral individualists. We employ current theorizing about the sacred to help understand respondents’ belief and value-oriented non-religious identities in context. Keywords: Atheism, Youth, UK, Belief, Sacred Phil Zuckerman (2010b, vii) notes that for decades British sociologist Colin Campbell’s call for a widespread analysis of irreligion went largely un- heeded (Campbell 1971).

    Westchester County Department of Health Community Health Assessment Data Update 2015.08 Regional School-Aged Children BMI Profiles 2012-2013 and 2013-2014 School Years In this issue: • Number and Percent of School Aged Children who are overweight, obese, and overweight/obese by grade Project Directors: Jiali Li, Ph.D. Director of Research & Evaluation Planning & Evaluation Renee Recchia, MPH, Acting Deputy Commissioner of Administration Project Staff: Megan Cea, MPH, Medical Data Analyst Stan Cho, MPH, Medical Data Analyst Milagros Venuti, MPA, Assistant Statistician Graphic Design: Megan Cea, MPH Robert P. Astorino, Westchester County Executive Sherlita Amler, MD, Commissioner of Health Foreword The Westchester County Department of Health (WCDH) plays a leading role in promoting health, preventing disease, and prolonging meaningful life for Westchester County residents. WCDH monitors and controls the spread of communicable diseases, monitors and regulates air and water quality, enforces the state and local sanitary code, promotes local public health activities, and assures the availability of community health services. To comply with New York State Public Health Law, WCDH completed a Community Health Assessment (CHA) 2013-2017 in 2013 to describe the health status of Westchester County residents, identify existing gaps and health care barriers, assess the availability and accessibility of health care services, and specify public health priorities in the County. This document is intended to supplement the 2013-2017 CHA with updated regional school BMI information. In order to monitor overweight and obesity status and support the statewide efforts to reverse the childhood obesity epidemic, the New York State Student Weight Status Category Reporting System (SWSCR) was established to collect weight status category data (underweight, healthy weight, overweight or obese, based on BMI-for-age percentile) on children and adolescents attending public school in New York State, outside New York City.
