鈥淲ill Adam Go AWOL? Will Eve?鈥 This is the motto of a unique forum on science and theology at SA国际传媒鈥檚 Werner Auditorium on Thursday, March 26, at 7:00 p.m. Prepared by The Center for Lutheran Theology and Public Life (CLTPL), this event will be the second in a series of conferences called 鈥淢ale and Female He Created Them (Genesis 1:27).鈥
鈥淟ast year we looked at the role of women in God鈥檚 order of creation,鈥 said CLTPL director Dr. Uwe Siemon-Netto. 鈥淭his year, Dr. Robert W. Weise, a professor of practical theology and a cellular biologist will discuss the theological, social and scientific ramifications of procreation technologies without recourse to sex. The issue here is the probable emergence of a new post-human species bred in test tubes without the involvement of parents. Hence the conference鈥檚 provocative subtitle, 鈥楩orum on Planned Non-笔补谤别苍迟丑辞辞诲.鈥欌赌
