Midwest Religion and Science Society
The Midwest Religion and Science Society (MRSS) is an organization dedicated to the dialog between Religion and Science. A primary interest of the MRSS is Religion and Consciousness.
The MRSS has local chapters at Andrews University (MI), Bluffton University (OH), Bethel College (IN), Goshen College (IN), Manchester College (IN), and the University of St. Francis (IN). There are two major meetings of the MRSS each year, one at Goshen College (March) and one at Andrews University (October).
Midwest Center for Religion and ConsciousnessThe Midwest Center for Religion and Consciousness focus is an in depth and non-prejudicial study of consciousness from the perspectives of the natural sciences and philosophy/religion. The objective of the MCRC is to study the question of consciousness, particularly with regard to the role of systemic order as understood from complexity theory and the ethical/moral responsibilities that arise from human consciousness as a high-level property. Undertaking the study simultaneously from the scientific and from the religious-philosophical perspectives presents the MRSS with an engaging and unifying core. |
