Workshop Announcement

=93Life on a Threatened Planet:
Genetic Controversy and Environmental Ethics=94
January 4-9, 2002

The Center for Theology and the Natural Sciences (CTNS) is pleased to=20
announce the Science and Religion Course Program Advanced Workshop from=20
June 4 to 9, 2002, at the Foothill Conference Center at the University of=20
California, Berkeley campus. This conference is hosted by the Center for=20
Theology and the Natural Sciences at the Graduate Theological School in=20
collaboration with the Global Academy=92s Genome Institute. The registration=
=20
fee of $100 covers the entire expenses of meals, housing, and conference=20
materials.

Berkeley Workshop Pr=E9cis:
Our deepening ecological crisis issues a clarion call to muster all=20
resources available to the human community, including those of both Science=
=20
and Religion. Yet both Science and Religion are ambiguous: are they=20
destructive demons or healing angels? Will leaps in genetic research=20
enhance human and environmental health, or destroy it? Will spirituality=20
provide sensitivity and guidance, or numbness and exploitation?

Under the theme, "Genetics and Environment" this workshop will explore the=
=20
impact of the accelerating development of science and technology on the=20
relationship between science and religion. Workshop faculty will address=20
the following issues in plenary presentations, panel discussions and=20
break-out groups with workshop participants: the globalization of=20
scientific culture; religious responses to new scientific visions of the=20
universe; pedagogical models for teaching world religions and ecology in=20
the classroom and ethical concerns prompted by biotechnology (with a focus=
=20
on plant genetics) and environmental threats.

The ethical agenda prompts a theological question: is nature sacred? Is it=
=20
necessary to view nature as sacred to derive a religiously based ethic that=
=20
will inspire responsibility toward our planet?

Workshop Goals
This workshop brings together teaching faculty from a variety of=20
disciplines to draw an integrative picture of the one Planet Earth from a=20
variety of perspectives. There is but one future for many traditions, one=20
home for many nations, and one humanity for many races. This one world=20
requires scientific understanding, spiritual depth, ethical breadth and=20
loving care. In addition, the workshop will offer participants interactive=
=20
forums for open, constructive, and critical exchange of ideas.

This workshop is designed in consonance with the central mission of the=20
CTNS: to encourage dialogue between science and religion. This emphasis on=
=20
dialogue stems from the recognition that the urgent challenges of a=20
scientific age can only be effectively anticipated and adequately addressed=
=20
when scholars from a multiplicity of disciplines and cultural and religious=
=20
traditions contribute their specialized insights to the broader concerns of=
=20
the global human and ecological communities.

The workshop begins with an opening keynote address by Dr. Vandana Shiva on=
=20
Tuesday, June 4th and ends late Saturday evening, June 8th with a San=20
Francisco Bay Cruise final banquet. Registrants are welcome to stay at the=
