Fascinating debates

Hanna Rosin has written a new book called God's Harvard: A Christian College on a Mission to Save America, that takes a look at the small Christian college outside the nation's capital - Patrick Henry College. A journalist, Rosin spent 18 months immersed in the school's culture, talking with their students and following them through internships in the White House and Hollywood, working on campaign teams, and pursuing their studies with dogged passion.

In line with the Web 2.0 generation, Rosin carried on an email conversation or debate about her book with David Kuo, author of Tempting Faith and former White House employee. Their debate has been published on the web at Slate.com.

You can read each response (David to Hanna, Hanna to David, etc.) by clicking on the numbers 1, 2, 3, 4 in the boxes. It's an interesting discussion, they have, and well worth perusing. Also, if you end up reading the book, let me know what you think about it.
