Summary: | There are various ways in which religion and science have been perceived to interact in the cultural domain. After critically assessing the "separation view" of their relationship and finding it untenable, this essay recounts various "interaction views" wherein either religion or science is assumed to be taking precedence over or replacing in significance the other. This essay concludes with a "postsecular perspective" that sheds a different light on this relationship, claiming that discursively, religion and science inform and complement each other in American culture. |
