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.
