Conference to Consider Public Faith in a Pluralistic World, Sept. 15-16

What is the appropriate role of religion in pubic life? That is the question at the center of a Sept. 15-16 conference--"Religiously Incorrect? Public Faith in a Pluralistic World"--to be held at Yale Law School and sponsored jointly by the Law School, Yale Divinity School, and the Yale Center for Faith & Culture.

"Religiously Incorrect?" will bring together distinguished representatives from law, the ministry, and the business community. The concluding keynote panel, "Faith on the bench," will feature three prominent judges and will be moderated by Stephen L. Carter, the William Nelson Cromwell Professor at Yale Law School, author of The Culture of Disbelief. Judges scheduled to serve on the panel are Wendell L. Griffen, Arkansas Court of Appeals; Robert H. Henry, U.S. Court of Appeals, Tenth Circuit; and Joan Gottschall, U.S. District Court, Northern Illinois.

Members of the Yale community are welcome to attend all sessions free of charge. Preregistration is required for participants who are not Yale affiliated.
