THE CENTER FOR ADVANCED STUDY INRELIGION AND SCIENCE, AND ZYGON: JOURNAL OFRELIGION AND SCIENCE‐A TWENTY‐YEAR VIEW

Abstract

Abstract. This essay gives a brief history and presents an analysisof the aims and accomplishments of the two institutions as seen bythe author. The analysis seeks to describe and justify some of theirbasic presuppositions. Primary has been their belief that scientifi‐cally informed understandings of religion do enrich our apprecia‐tion of and faith in it. For instance, religion's recently discoveredroles in the evolution and development of sociocultural systemsand personalities provide new credibility and importance for reli‐gious heritage. Recent translations between contemporary scien‐tific and ancient religious concepts give new hope for religiousreform, revitalization, and effectiveness for human salvation in anage of science.
