This conference has a threefold purpose:
- To model a new form of interfaith
dialogue, one based on a "third party"/"shared interest", namely science. The
participants learn how each faith sees how the other faiths reflect on
particular topics in the natural sciences and thereby gain new and unique
perspectives on that faith as well as on their own.
- To model the unique strength of the
Graduate Theological Union (GTU): interfaith dialogue that is intrinsic to each
participating faith tradition and guided by mutual respect and by a true sense
of what can be learned from other faith traditions for one's own tradition.
- To expand the perception of the importance
of "theology and science" for the GTU community and the wider public.
