Science and Religion: Some Shared Presuppositions
The Proceedings of the Twenty-First World Congress of Philosophy 8:123-128 (2006)
| Abstract | While many have claimed that there is a conflict between science and religion, it is not often noted that they share a number of assumptions. Here, I work toward identifying and clarifying some of these shared assumptions. I focus on some of the common commitments to metaphysical, epistemological and moral priorities which are necessary for human life in a democratic society. While this will not eliminate all conflict between science and religion, it will remind the disputants of their common goals and even common enemies | |||||||||
