Center for the Study of Science and Religion : ウィキペディア英語版 | Center for the Study of Science and Religion The Center for the Study of Science and Religion (CSSR) is a center inside The Earth Institute at Columbia University. It "was founded in the summer of 1999 as a forum for the examination of issues that lie at the boundary of these two complementary ways of comprehending the world and our place in it. By examining the intersections that cross over the boundaries between one or another science and one or another religion, the CSSR hopes to stimulate dialogue and encourage understanding."〔(CSSR overview )〕 The founder and director of CSSR is Robert Pollack, Professor of Biological Sciences and Adjunct Professor of Science and Religion at Union Theological Seminary in the City of New York and also Adjunct Professor of Religion at Columbia University.
