The dramatic technological capabilities resulting from scientific progress raise important and challenging ethical questions. The growing dialogue between science and religion is vital to the decisions about how to apply these technologies wisely and justly. The technological
realm needs faith-based perspectives even as people of faith must engage exciting issues like cloning, genetic testing and modification, and stem-cell research. Beverages and cookies provided.
