Symposium

Props to the able leadership of the Campbell University law review, faculty advisor Kevin Lee,  and the law school administration for last week's superb symposium. "Liberalism, Constitutionalism, and Christianity" brought together eight scholars who analyzed the influence of Christianity on classical liberal thought from a variety of perspectives. Personally, I enjoyed this conference more than most that come to mind. I won't forget Tony Baker's searing blend of natural law/natural rights and biography of Frederick Douglass. Barry Shain's contrarian take on pre-Revolutionary American history was thought-provoking. A couple of folks even asked for copies of my paper considering foundations for human rights. Keep an eye open for the next issue of the Campbell Law Review to read all the articles.
