CHAPTER XI THEOLOGY AND PSYCHOLOGY I. The Situation; the Propositions of Empirical Theology; the Documental Evidence "Le conflit entre Ie christianisme et la science a delate" d'abord sur le terrain cosmologique; la lutte s'est transported ensuite sur le terrain de la biologie; elle se trouve maintenant sur celui de la psychologic" Theodore Flournoy, unpublished lecture. One of the results of the scientific and philosophical activity of the past century has been to convince the best informed among the theologians who have remained Christians in the traditional sense of the word, that science and metaphysics are not the allies but the enemies of their beliefs.1 This conviction has resulted in an energetic effort to render theology independent of science and metaphysics. Should this endeavor succeed, it would be a matter of indifference to religion that historical criticism contests the authenticity of portions of the Bible, that physical science denies miracles, and that psychology explains by natural means revelation and conversion. Ritschlianism, the only recent system of theology that 1 The metaphysicians have themselves compelled this recognition, even those of the English school of Hegelians. See on this an instructive and delightfully written chapter in Schiller's Studies in Humanism, on " Absolutism and Religion," especially pages 283-288; and note his reference to McTaggart's Some Dogmas of Religion. has given evidence of vitality, marks the culmination of this effort. To save religion, Ritschl1 took the bold step of claiming a radical separation between Christian theology and what he called " theoretical " knowledge. He alleges in justification a specific difference between religious and non-religious knowledge. "It is...

This book was released on 2017-10-11 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Psychological Study of Religion Its Origin, Function, and Future In this volume I have endeavored to deal with the topics announced in the subtitle, as scientifically as their nature permits. Light comes to the problems of origins from three sources: the present customs and beliefs of the most primitive peoples known to us; the behavior and ideas of children; and the teachings of general psychology. I trust that my information in these several provinces has been on the whole sufficient to keep me on the right road. For data I have had to depend upon the work of students of anthropology, sociology, and psychology, and upon documents I have gathered myself, at first hand, either by questionnaires or by private correspondence.

Download or read book The Making and Unmaking of the Psychology of Religion written by Matei Iagher and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-03-18 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the rise and demise of the psychology of religion in the late 19th and early 20th centuries in Europe and the United States. It considers the formation of the psychology of religion as an international movement, an enterprise whose goal was to refashion the science of religion at the turn of the century. Drawing on published sources and archival accounts, the chapters engage with the work of notable figures including William James, C.G. Jung, and Pierre Janet, placing it alongside lesser-known practitioners such as Ernest Murisier, James Henry Leuba, James Pratt, and George Albert Coe. In addition to probing the intellectual background and professional context for the emergence of this sub-discipline, the book examines the development of key concepts and methodologies among psychologists of religion and offers arguments both for the rise of the discipline as well as for its demise in the early decades of the 20th century.

Download or read book The Pragmatics of Defining Religion written by Platvoet and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2018-11-13 with total page 566 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume promotes a pragmatic, anti-essentialist and anti-hegemonic approach to the problem of the definition of religion. It argues that definitions of religion are context-bound strategies for pursuing a variety of purposes, extra-academic as well as academic. Religions being immensely varied, complex and multi-functional phenomena, they need to be studied by several academic disciplines from many different perspectives. It is, therefore, legitimate and useful that many definitions of religions are developed. The volume has contributions from scholars in Philosophy of Religion, the Comparative Study of Religions, Anthropology of Religion, Sociology of Religion and Psychology of Religion. It has chapters on the polemics of defining religion in modern contexts, the history of the concept of religion, and the methodology of its definition; it includes several definition proposals.
Download or read book Empire of Religion written by David Chidester and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2014-03-19 with total page 398 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How is knowledge about religion and religions produced, and how is that knowledge authenticated and circulated? David Chidester seeks to answer these questions in Empire of Religion, documenting and analyzing the emergence of a science of comparative religion in Great Britain during the second half of the nineteenth century and its complex relations to the colonial situation in southern Africa. In the process, Chidester provides a counterhistory of the academic study of religion, an alternative to standard accounts that have failed to link the field of comparative religion with either the power relations or the historical contingencies of the imperial project. In developing a material history of the study of religion, Chidester documents the importance of African religion, the persistence of the divide between savagery and civilization, and the salience of mediations—imperial, colonial, and indigenous—in which knowledge about religions was produced. He then identifies the recurrence of these mediations in a number of case studies, including Friedrich Max Müller’s dependence on colonial experts, H. Rider Haggard and John Buchan’s fictional accounts of African religion, and W. E. B. Du Bois’s studies of African religion. By reclaiming these theorists for this history, Chidester shows that race, rather than theology, was formative in the emerging study of religion in Europe and North America. Sure to be controversial, Empire of Religion is a major contribution to the field of comparative religious studies.
