This book documents the conference on The Science and Religion
Dialogue: Past and Future, held at the University of Heidelberg,
Germany, October 25-29, 2012. The conference commemorated the 100th
anniversary of the birth of Sir John Templeton and the 25th
anniversary of the establishment of the John Templeton Foundation. It
brought together about 60 active participants, all of them prominent
scholars from many countries and many academic fields. Most of them
have been engaged in the Science and Religion Dialogue for the last
two or three decades. This book reports on multi-year international
and interdisciplinary research projects at leading institutions. The
contributions start with presentations by Hans Joas, Martin Nowak and
John Polkinghorne and range from Astronomy, Mathematics, Physics and
Biology to Philosophical Theology and Religious Ethics. Special topics
of the dialogue between Science and Religion are also dealt with, such
as Eschatology and Anthropology; Cosmology, Creation, and Redemption;
Evolutionary Biology and the Spirit; and The Role of Thought
Experiments in Science and Theology.
