ALT Quote from Dr Nick Higgs saying "Spiritual aspects of life and scientific methods are changing and being challenged... If pursued both rigorously and with humility, they could reveal truths about the deepest aspects of reality."
This project led by Mark Harris and Pete Jordan at @UniofOxford's Ian Ramsey Centre for Science and Religion (IRC) will investigate what quantum fundamentalism might mean for humans’ understanding of the world and our place in it, and what can be rationally known or believed.
The Faculty of Theology and Religion has been awarded a major grant from the Templeton World Charity Foundation (@templetonworld) to support The Quantum Worldviews Project, a new research initiative based in the Ian Ramsey Centre for Science and Religion.
(1/2)
This project aims to establish a new research program on quantum fundamentalism, deepen scholarly understanding of its worldview implications, and raise public awareness of the human significance of QM.

Forgiveness took center stage at this year's Inner Development Goals Summit, where the theme was Bridging Polarities. Here, religious leaders from the Interfaith Mediation Centre in Kaduna, Nigeria reminded us that "unforgiveness is like taking poison."
Thank you to IDG Summit for spotlighting forgiveness as a critical skill for sustainable social development!
