Описание: Wittgenstein’s philosophy can help us to untie the knots in our discussion and understanding of the relationship between science and religion. Science and religion have become key contexts for discussions of meaning. However, questions regarding the unity between these two perspectives commonly drive the discussions. Are science and religion in accord or are they diametrically opposed to each other? Can a scientist also be religious? The common perspectives—for or against religion—are based on the same question, Do religion and science fit together or not? The common arguments begin with the preconceived notion that there is a gradient from similarity to difference between science and religion. What is required is a book that shows another perspective; namely, one that does not use an ill-conceived measuring stick to equally measure science and religion. In contrast, we need to see how these disciplines apply their own measures. This book steps out of the polemical arguments to focus on the unique natures of science and religion—without discrediting or endorsing either perspective. As Wittgenstein would say, we need to show the fly out of the bottle. We need to trace the arguments backwards to the fly bottle’s exit. The knotted perspectives stuck in the fly bottle are, in particular, religious fundamentalism and scientific atheism. Surprisingly, integration can also be stuck in the fly bottle when it ignores differences and blurs similarities within the fly bottle. The result is a timely book that uniquely agrees with conclusions, like Richard Dawkins’, that religion is not scientific, but entirely rejects the arguments and the conclusion that religion is therefore illusory.
