Three U2 paper proposals

Have you heard about the first-ever U2 academic conference? It's called "The Hype and the Feedback" and it's taking place in New York City, May 13-15, 2009. The call for papers went out a while back, but I've been ill so I couldn't respond until recently (I've had hepatitis for the last three weeks and still recovering). I finally submitted three separate proposals. Here's hoping the committee will consider them even though they're late. I'm praying for grace over karma....

If interested you can click and read more about my proposals. If they don't get accepted maybe I can turn them into articles.

Proposal #1. A theology of engagement in the mission of U2

Proposal #2. Bono's love-hate relationship with the church: the long road from Dublin to Willow Creek

Proposal #3 (co-written with Jessica Mast). Teaching U2: the classroom as "gathering place"

Go to wwww.immed.org and get some good information that's helped me. Look into Immunocal as I did. I hope you feel better soon. Be very careful and drink lots of fluids and Ester C. Limit sugars and diet cokes. Very bad for you.

Your a good person hang in there.
