520 |a Implications of the complicity of the psychology of religion in the post- modern condition of knowledge are countered by an argument that the body should be given more account in this field of research. Such an emphasis is exemplified by the work of Henry Murray, who himself located his research somewhere between biology (science) and literature (art) (Murray, 1938, p. 607). A revival of Murray's emphasis suggests that embodied knowledge de- rives not from the study of individuals' meanings in living but their needs and acts, which together articulate two laws of the mortal body namely, the turnover of generations (mortality-natality) and gender complementarity (sexuality). Specific accounting for these laws in the study of lives (e.g., biography, autobiography) will restore eros-or an aspiration to higher value-to the psychology of religion: How do subjects construe their pasts and futures and their changing location in temporality? How do subjects link themselves to their pasts and futures in terms of overall strategies and practical tactics for living in the present? Such an accounting also will make the psychology of re- ligion an inherently soteriological enterprise for researchers.
