Description
Summary:We commonly think that the rise of modern science made religious knowledge difficult to justify. There is, however, another way to understand religious thought that not only re-establishes religious knowledge as legitimate but also provides a unique way of integrating science and religion. Once we recognize that religious belief has experiential sources, we see that we can expand empiricism into an epistemology that can ground both science and religion. This approach, not found specifically in any of the typologies for relating science and religion, is a fourth addition to the three ways Ian Barbour identified for integrating science and religion.
