Abstract

We can judge whether some activities are scientific or religious, depending on how similar they are to exemplar scientific activities or to exemplar religious activities, even if we cannot specify the necessary and sufficient conditions for science and religion. The absence of the demarcation between science and religion does not justify the school policy of teaching the creationist hypothesis that God created the universe any more than it justifies the religious policy of teaching evolutionary theory, quantum mechanics, and the Big Bang theory in religious institutions.

科学与宗教的范例方法

我们可以判断一些活动是科学的还是宗教的，这取决于它们与模范科学活动或模范宗教活动的相似程度，即使我们不能具体说明科学和宗教的必要和充分条件。科学和宗教之间界限的缺失，并不能证明在宗教机构中教授进化论、量子力学和大爆炸理论的宗教政策是正当的，也不能证明教授上帝创造论假说的学校政策是正当的。

期刊介绍： Symposion was published for the first time in 2003, as Symposion – Revistă de științe socio-umane (Symposion – A Journal of Humanities), with the purpose of providing a supportive space for academic communication, dialogue, and debate, both intra and interdisciplinary, for philosophical humanities and social and political sciences. Symposion: Theoretical and Applied Inquiries in Philosophy and Social Sciences shares essentially the same purpose. Its main aim is to promote and provide open access to peer-reviewed, high quality contributions (articles, discussion notes, review essays or book reviews) in philosophy, other humanities, and social and political sciences connected with philosophy.
