520 |a In the case of religion the very data to be observed and classified are experiences of persons. Hence valuations are inextricably intermingled with facts. It is the province of science to describe, but not to evaluate. Any science needs philosophy to complete the interpretation. Science is inevitably abstract; but it is unscientific to select one particular generalization as an all-inclusive principle of explanation. The science of religion is in danger of falling into methodological dogmatism through the exclusive use of a psychological method which is uncritically extended into metaphysics. Genuine science should be catholic, and pave the way for fruitful philosophical interpretation.
