R.R. Reno on the First Things “After Liberalism” Seminar :

On February 27th and 28th some twenty scholars, as well as First Things editors and assorted auditors, met to discuss the question of whether liberalism has a future—and what comes after liberalism. Three essays served as foci for the seminar, and they will be featured in upcoming issues of First Things .

Also today, Terryl Givens on the heavenly logic of proxy baptism :

In 1823, Joseph Smith claimed a visitation from an angelic messenger, who called himself Moroni. He recited to Smith a number of scriptures, one of which bore rich fruit in the early years of Mormonism. The book of Malachi ends with a cryptic prophecy of Elijah’s return to the earth, when he will “turn the hearts of parents to their children and the hearts of children to their parents, so that [the Lord] will not come and strike the land with a curse.”
