AU08 day 1 blogging

by Jordan J. Ballor • June 11, 2008

A number of bloggers have begun posting their summaries, thoughts, and reactions to the first day of sessions at Acton University 2008. Below is a list, which will be updated periodically throughout the day.

Fr. John Zuhlsdorf at WDTPRS,
1. “Acton University: Day 1.” As usual there is a very, ah, lively conversation going on in Fr. Z’s comment boxes.
Tex at Mere Orthodoxy,
1. “Anthropology, the Economists’ Foundation.”
2. “The Economic Way of Thinking.”
3. “Difference: The Opportunity for Love.”
4. “The Danger of Misplaced Pity.”
  Tex is living up to his promise and giving us a lot to consider in his reflections.
LABARTON at Thoughts on Theology,
1. “Acton Day 1: Thoughts on Human Dignity.”

If you have a post that ought to listed, please note it in the comments below and I’ll add it to our watch list.
