Call for Proposals
(Natural) Science and (Religious) Ethics (co-sponsored session with the Ethics Unit and the Science, Technology, and Religion Unit)
This session invites papers addressing the ethical significance of the natural sciences for religious traditions. Technological developments often pose obviously ethical questions for religious traditions. Do scientific developments (e.g. the Copernican revolution / evolution / Big Bang / plate tectonics) also pose ethical questions for religious traditions? If so, how? And do these scientifically induced questions differ in kind from the ethical questions that technological developments elicit?
