Rupert Shortt

Rupert Shortt is a British author, biographer and journalist. He is known for writing about the modern persecution of Christians around the world,[1] including in his book Christianophobia: A Faith Under Attack,[2][3] and for a series of works defending the coherence of classical theism in general and a Christian world view in particular.[4]

Rowan Williams wrote that Shortt's book God Is No Thing: Coherent Christianity "deserves a place alongside the best intelligent responses to the New Atheism."[5]

Shortt is a Fellow Commoner of St Edmund's College, Cambridge[6] and was religion editor of The Times Literary Supplement from 2000 to 2020.[citation needed]
