DESCRIPTION:<p>About the Congress</p>\n<p>The purpose of the World Congress on Logic and Religion (WoCoLoR) series is to provide a place where scholars from all fields\, as well as theologians of all religions\, can come together to hear from one another about the latest developments in the relationship between logic and religion\, reason and faith\, rational inquiry and divine revelation.</p>\n<p>There have been four editions of the WoCoLoR: in Joao Pessoa\, Brazil (2015)\, in Warsaw\, Poland (2017)\, in Varanasi\, India (2022)\, and in Sinaia\, Romania (2023). Previous keynote speakers include: Saul Kripke (Schock Prize)\, Laurent Lafforgue (Fields Medal)\, Michal Heller (Templeton Prize)\, Dov Gabbay\, Jan Wolenski\, Piergiorgio Odifreddi\, Richard Swinburne and Eleonore Stump.</p>\n<p>The 5th World Congress on Logic and Religion (5th WoCoLoR 2026) will be held at Vancouver\, Canada\, on September 23-27\, 2026. We invite scholars (philosophers\, logicians\, mathematicians\, theologians\, etc.) to submit a one-page abstract. The topics of the papers should deal with the relationships between logic and religion. To submit an abstract via the form:click HERE.</p>\n<p>We welcome submissions on all aspects of the relationship between logic and religion\, broadly understood. Contributions may be philosophical\, formal\, interdisciplinary\, or applied.</p>\n<p>The congress invites work in core areas such as logic and philosophy of religion\, formal logic and theological reasoning\, epistemology of belief and faith\, metaphysics and religious thought\, and the logic of religious language and symbolism. We also encourage submissions that engage with contemporary and interdisciplinary questions\, including the intersections of artificial intelligence\, religion\, and epistemic coherence\; the logic of economic behavior\, profit\, and faith\; ethics\, business\, and religious frameworks\; media and communication in relation to religion\; and the role of religion in digital and technological contexts.</p>\n<p>In addition\, the congress seeks to promote diverse cultural and critical perspectives. Relevant topics include Indigenous structures of thought and religion\, comparative religion and systems of belief\, religious dialogue and pluralism\, women and gender in religion\, and the relationships between psychoanalysis\, symbolic systems\, and religious experience.</p>\n<p>Submissions may be directed to one of the proposed workshop themes\, which include The Logic of Panentheism\; Artificial Intelligence\, Faith\, and Epistemic Coherence\; The Logic of Profit and Faith\; Women\, Logic and Religion\; and Logic of Religious Dialogue. However\, the congress remains open to new directions\, and we warmly welcome proposals for additional workshops\, special sessions\, and interdisciplinary panels.</p>\n<p>Confirmed Workshops</p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p>The Logic of Panentheism (organiser: Ricardo Silvestre) &mdash\; rss.logos@gmail.com</p>\n</li>\n<li>\n<p>Artificial Intelligence\, Faith\, and Epistemic Coherence (organiser: Houman Mehrabian) &mdash\; houman.mehrabian@gmail.com</p>\n</li>\n<li>\n<p>The Logic of Profit and Faith (organiser: Maira de Cinque) &mdash\; mairadecinque@gmail.com</p>\n</li>\n<li>\n<p>Women\, Logic and Religion (organiser: Tasneem Alsayyed Ahmad) &mdash\; alsayyedt@gmail.com</p>\n</li>\n<li>\n<p>Logic of Religious Dialogue (organiser: Marcin Trepczyński) &mdash\; m.trepczynski@uw.edu.pl</p>\n</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Proposed Workshops</p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p>Psychoanalysis\, Symbolic Systems\, and Religion (provisional organiser: Maira de Cinque\; we are seeking a qualified organiser) &mdash\; mairadecinque@gmail.com</p>\n</li>\n<li>\n<p>Indigenous Structures of Thought and Major World Religions (provisional organiser: Maira de Cinque\; we are seeking a qualified organiser) &mdash\; mairadecinque@gmail.com</p>\n</li>\n</ul>\n<p>To submit\, please provide your name and affiliation\, the title of your paper\, an abstract\, and\, if applicable\, your preferred session.
