Educating for Shalom

Joel Westerholm will present on Wolterstorff's Educating for Shalom on Friday, February 15. He will lead us in discussion of "The World for Which We Educate" (87ff.) and "Teaching for Justice: On Shaping How Students Are Disposed to Act" (135ff.)

Also, here's a link to the background reading from Perspectives Joel suggests we read.

Re the Accra statement:

A farrago of lies and poppycock. A veneer of Christian piety, superimposed on anti-liberal propaganda essentially unchanged from what we find in Marx, Mussolini, or Hitler, does nothing to bring it into contact with empirical reality or a real concern with the actual plight of the world's downtrodden. The ignorance, arrogance, fatuous self-righteousness, and sheer stupidity on display here would merely be comical, were it not for the fact that those who inhabit the fantasy land of the academic left still wield the power to keep millions in poverty.
