English summary: Our present-day world view is fundamentally influenced by natural science. Findings from all areas of scientific research are seriously challenging theological thought and attacking its core convictions: Is the concept of God the product of neuronal processes in the brain? Is religion solely to be regarded by its role in cultural evolution? Are there no warranted grounds to believe in the existence of free will? What if we are not alone in the universe? The future of academic theology depends greatly on the quality which she lays into her attempts to deal with the recognized as well as indeterminate consequences resulting from scientific and technological progress. This volume ventures a glimpse into the future of scientific research so as to encourage theologians to sharpen awareness for upcoming challenges. It thus designs to set the landmarks for tomorrow’s dialogue between science and theology. German text. German description: Das Weltbild unserer Zeit ist von den Naturwissenschaften gepragt. Sie stellen drangende Fragen, die den Kern theologischer Aussagen beruhren: Stellt Gott lediglich eine vom Gehirn erzeugte Illusion dar? Sind Religionen rein innerweltlich als soziologische oder psychologische Phanomene erklarbar? Kann beim Menschen noch von echter Willensfreiheit gesprochen werden? Mit dem Band wird ein Blick in die Zukunft sowohl der naturwissenschaftlichen Entwicklung als auch des theologischen Umgangs mit den Ergebnissen der Naturwissenschaften unternommen.
