Description
Religious Naturalism presents a comprehensive exploration of how religious experience and meaning can be reconciled with a naturalistic, scientifically informed understanding of reality. John Bishop and Ken Perszyk examine the philosophical foundations of religious naturalism, demonstrating that spirituality need not depend on supernatural entities or transcendent realms.
The authors analyze key religious concepts including the sacred, divinity, prayer, and transcendence, reinterpreting them within a framework that respects scientific knowledge about the natural world. They address critical challenges to this approach and show how religious naturalism offers resources for contemporary spiritual life without requiring belief in traditional theism.
This concise yet rigorous volume is part of Cambridge University Press’s Elements in Global Philosophy of Religion series, making it accessible to philosophers, theologians, and thoughtful readers interested in how religious traditions can evolve in light of modern scientific understanding.
