We are launching a new monthly webinar, part of the LOGIC & RELIGION
project.
The first session - see below - will be a general discussion of the project with members of the board of the newborn LARA (Logic And Religion Association). Everybody is welcome to attend.
This project started with a 1st World Congress on Logic and Religion (WoCoLoR) in João Pessoa (Brazil) in 2015, then there was a 2nd WoCoLoR in Warsaw (Poland) in 2017.
Famous scholars such as Dov Gabbay, Michael Heller (Templeton Prize), Saul Kripke (Schock Prize) , Laurent Lafforgue (Fields Medals), Jan Wolenski took part.
The 3rd WoCoLoR has been postponed due to the pandemic.
It will take place in Varanasi (India) in November 2022.
Meanwhile the project will evolve through a webinar featuring topics such as Proofs of Existence or Nonexistence of God, Scientism, Contradiction and God, Logic of Paradise, Love and Irrationality.

WHY LOGIC AND RELIGION?
July 22, 2021, 4 pm CET
https://www.logicandreligion.com/webinars
What contribution can logic as an academic field provide to the philosophical reflection on God and religion? Could this contribution extend to other dimensions of the study of religion, such as the sociology and anthropology of religion? Can logic contribute to bringing religion closer to rationality?
On the other hand, in what sense can religion bring new insights to the study and development of logic? Can we talk about Logic and Religion as a new field of research? If so, what is peculiar about this field that differentiates it from other areas of research, both in terms of methodology and object of study? Is it a multidisciplinary, interdisciplinary or transdisciplinary research field?

These are some of the questions that will be addressed in this opening session of the Logic and Religion Webinar. It will be facilitated by members of the LARA's Boards and will have the participation of many of the academics who have been involved in LARA's conferences and publications. We hope to have a lively and exciting discussion.
