On Friday, April 1, CTNS and the Graduate Theological Union co-hosted an event to discuss and celebrate Fifty Years in Science and Religion: Ian G. Barbour and His Legacy edited by CTNS founder and director, Robert John Russell.
Dr. Barbour is internationally acknowledged as a pioneer in the field of science and religion. Although public opinion is often swayed by strident voices which attempt to place science and religion in conflict or keep them totally isolated, Barbour's voluminous contributions over the past fifty years have carved out a trusted pathway to constructive dialogue between science and religion. For his singular contributions Dr. Barbour received the 1999 Templeton Prize for Progress in Religion.
