There is a conference on relating one's faith to one's area of study at wheaton college this coming May.

Niebuhr thought that sustained moral energy in politics depended on religion's power to mobilize reason along with self-transcending love. The prophetic tradition, meanwhile, gave Jews and Christians some protection against the temptation to identify their social causes with God's will. Lincoln's second inaugural address expressed the prophetic insight, "The almighty has His own purposes."

Plantinga's speaking, but there's no breakout group for philosophers? Also, why no breakouts for science or the arts or clergy? Surely there are Christian intellectuals in these fields who could contribute? Michael Behe? Erwin McManus? Charlie Peacock?

Good idea they have here, and the disciplines included are often overlooked, but a more complete program is necessary, I would think. Are you going to this, DLW? Because if you are, we should try and get together or something.

In essentials, unity; In matters of opinion, liberty; In all things, love.

I wish.

I don't think I can afford that many trips, and it would be during my birthday and if I'm going to be in the US on my birthday, I'd have to be with my family.

But, I would love to hook up with you someday BWH. Where do you come from again?

We could chat on the phone sometime this Holiday, if you want.
