We see many of the problems in the current age as being due to a misunderstanding and misapplication of science and scientific method. Therefore, we explore the scientific method and related ideas in considerable detail. In addition, we see a lack of understanding of theological method; both as it relates to theistic religion and as it affects the relations between religion and science. Therefore, we also explore theological method in detail. As we study Ian Barbour’s book, Religion and Science: Historical and Contemporary Issues, we fully explore his four-fold consideration of the science-religion dialogue. Prerequisite: None Fees: None
