| 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.

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. |
