Faith Angle Conference on Religion, Politics & Public Life

End:  Tuesday, March 9, 2010  1:30 PM
Location:   The Palms Hotel & Spa, South Beach, Florida

The Faith Angle Program will hold its Conference on Religion, Politics & Public Life March 7-9 in South Beach, Florida. The series brings together a select group of nationally respected journalists and distinguished scholars for in-depth discussions of cutting-edge issues at the intersection of religion and public life. Under the leadership of Michael Cromartie, Vice President at the Ethics and Public Policy Center, The Faith Angle Conference has become a much sought after invitation to a rare event that provides extended discussion and the kind of deeper reflection that is not always possible in today's fast paced world of breaking news.

This conference's topics include: "To Change the World: The Irony, Tragedy, and Possibility of Christianity in the Late Modern World," presented by James Davison Hunter; "The Paradox of Judaism and American Politics," presented by David Gelernter and Rabbie David Saperstein; and "Have the Culture Wars Gone Global? Religion and Sexuality in the Global South," presented by Philip Jenkins.

Among those attending this year's conference are Perry Bacon, Political Reporter, Washington Post; Fred Barnes, Executive Editor, Weekly Standard; Carl Cannon, Deputy Editor, PoliticsDaily.com; Ross Douthat, Columnist, New York Times; Electa Draper, Religion Writer, Denver Post; John Fund, Columnist, Wall Street Journal; Michael Gerson, Columnist, Washington Post; Lauren Green, Religion Correspondent, Fox News; Eliza Griswold, Freelancer, New Yorker, The Atlantic; Robert Guest, Washington Correspondent, The Economist; Barbara Bradley Hagerty, Religion Correspondent, NPR; Melinda Henneberger, Editor-in-Chief, PoliticsDaily.com; Rachel Martin, Correspondent, ABC News; Lisa Miller, Religion Editor, Newsweek; Kathleen Parker, Columnist, Washington Post; Reihan Salam, Columnist, Forbes; Noam Scheiber, Senior Editor, The New Republic; John Siniff, Senior Editor, USA Today; Amy Sullivan, Religion Editor, Time; Ellen Weiss, Senior Vice President for News, NPR; and Byron York, Chief Political Correspondent, Washington Examiner.

Blogging on the Courts

EPPC President Edward Whelan, the director of the program on The Constitution, the Courts, and the Culture, is a leading contributor to Bench Memos, National Review Online's award-winning blog on judicial nominations and constitutional law. You can read a list of all of his postings here.

Paul Mirengoff of the influential Power Line blog has said, "Blogs like NRO’s Bench Memos … enable legal super-stars like Ed Whelan to shoot down bad arguments against nominees within hours."
