Frequently Asked Questions
Do Cubit articles have to make explicit reference to religion and science?
Not exactly. Again, it really helps to scan through the collected works.
So what are you about?
Cubit pieces hit at least one area in column A, and at least one area in column B.
Are you an academic journal or a magazine?
We straddle that line. Many of our contributors are academics, and we engage with theory and the scholarly literature more seriously than most journalists. At the core, though, we’re following a magazine model. Our goal is to explore, inform, and entertain.
