ISCAST
The Institute for the Study of Christianity in an Age of Science and Technology (ISCAST) is a non-profit organization founded in Australia which studies issues related to science and faith within a Christian context, including theology, evolution and creation, philosophy of science, modern physics and cosmology, ethics and environmental issues.
ISCAST runs regular lectures, meetings and workshops that explore issues related to science and faith, and publishes peer-reviewed articles, papers, debates and book reviews on topics of interest to its membership and the wider Christian and scientific community.
The Aims of ISCAST are: [1]
1. To promote an understanding of science, technology and the Christian faith which is consistent with the Judaeo-Christian doctrine of Creation, with its emphasis on God as the God of nature.
2. To promote scholarship, teaching and discussion in this area.
3. To engage in debate on the public understanding of science, technological development and application, and religion in order to inform the Christian church, its members and associated organisations, and to bring informed opinion to the public arena - engaging in public debate in the media and in other secular institutions.
