== History ==
With the help of Peter Dodson, Soloman Katz, Andrew Newberg, and Stephen Dunning, William Grassie created the Philadelphia Center for Religion and Science (PCRS) to promote literacy in science and religion by hosting seminars, courses, and conferences.〔Faye Flam, Philadelphia Inquirer, May 9, 1999, “Science, at a High Power/Is God in the Details?”〕 PCRS was renamed to Metanexus Institute in 2000, and the Meta-List was relaunched as a website with the support of a grant from the John Templeton Foundation, and Metanexus launched a $5.1 million Local Societies Initiative.〔David O’Reilly and Melissa Dribben, Philadelphia Inquirer, July 9, 2008, “An Investor in Money and Faith.”〕 In 2003, Metanexus launched the $3.3 million Spiritual Transformation Scientific Research Project.〔http://articles.philly.com/2002-10-13/news/25352919_1_metanexus-institute-spiritual-transformation-research-proposals〕 The organization hosted numerous conferences at universities and elsewhere, including a conference entitled ''Science and Religion in Context'' at the University of Pennsylvania.〔http://www.christianpost.com/news/theologians-and-scientists-hold-interdisciplinary-conference-7130/〕 Metanexus has promoted the concept of Big History, sometimes termed the Epic of Evolution, which examines history using long time frames through a multidisciplinary approach.
