| Summary: | In this response to Pargament's article Of Means and Ends: Religion and the Search for Significance, Pargament's definition of religion as always including reference to a transcendent power is questioned. Yet agreement is expressed with Pargament's questioning the nature of religion as an end in itself, the tendency to make scales become constructs, and the ability of people always to give reasons for their actions. The importance of values in the scientific study of religion is affirmed. |
