Before we started Religion New Blog, Apologetics Index published the "Religion News Report." This was a newsletter posted to the AR-talk mailing list. The newsletters were then archived at this site. Publication in that format ceased at the end of February, 2002, but news items continued to be published tp a Yahoo Groups mailing list

On July 18, 2002, the Religion News Blog came online.

• Many of the entries in our A-Z Index include resource listings for current and archived news items. This is the easiest way to find relevant news items.
  
  See, for example, recent news items regarding Aum Shinrikyo, Scientology, Falun Gong, or items about Religion Trends.
