Wolfgang Achtner (2 September 1957 – 31 October 2017[1]) was a theologist who played a key role as an ambassador for the science-and-religion dialogue in Germany.[2]

Career

Achtner studied systematic theology and the Old Testament in Mainz, Göttingen, and Heidelberg. His dissertation focused on the science-and-religion dialogue in the work of Thomas F. Torrance. He then undertook a one-year research fellowship in Heidelberg. While a parish minister in Mainz, he earned an additional degree in mathematics.

He worked on the concept of natural law and its role in the science and theology dialogue during a sabbatical year at Princeton Theological Seminary.

He won the Kleines Lutherstipendium for the translation of his own book Dimensionen der Zeit into English (Dimensions of Time, 2002).

He founded the Local Society Initiative Group at Giessen, and won a stipend for the Templeton Oxford Seminars in Science and Christianity. He was a member of ESSAT and the Protestant Academy of Arnoldshain. He lectured in Germany, France, Great Britain, Switzerland, and the United States. Achtner was editor of the Giessen University Sermons and the newsletter Science and Religion (in German).[2]
