Abstract

ABSTRACT Religion and science are often deemed to conflict. Neurotheology is a new way of exploring the interface of neuroscience and religion. Neuroscience shares many of the same concerns about human welfare as religion and also provides the credibility of secular rationale, evidence, explanation, and resolution for many religious ideas for wholesome living. The analysis here reveals and explores nine categories where neuroscience can augment religious life: (1) Harm avoidance, (2) Actualization, (3) Stress reduction, (4) Positive Reinforcement, (5) Human capacity for learning, (6) Biology of love, (7) Sanctity of life, (8) Social neuroscience, and (9) Body ad brain health.

拓展神经神学的视野:使神经科学成为宗教的盟友

宗教和科学经常被认为是冲突的。神经神学是探索神经科学与宗教界面的新途径。神经科学与宗教一样，对人类福祉有许多相同的关注，也为许多有益健康生活的宗教思想提供了世俗理论、证据、解释和解决方案的可信度。本文的分析揭示并探讨了神经科学可以增强宗教生活的九个类别:(1)避免伤害，(2)实现，(3)减轻压力，(4)积极强化，(5)人类学习能力，(6)爱的生物学，(7)生命的神圣性，(8)社会神经科学，以及(9)身体和大脑健康。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Spirituality in Mental Health is an interdisciplinary professional journal (retiled from American Journal of Pastoral Counseling to better reflect its broader scope) that is devoted to the scholarly study of spirituality as a resource for counseling and psychotherapeutic disciplines. This peer-reviewed quarterly journal seeks to enhance the understanding of spirituality as a core component of human well-being in individual, relational, and communal life. Leading authorities provide insights into research and effective therapy in an interdisciplinary dialog that crosses the disciplines of psychology, spirituality, theology, sociology, cultural analysis, and other fields.
