Abstract
The perennial ponderings about the relation between science and religion tend to reflect the intellectual vogues of the times. In the 1950s there was a collusion between the positivism of philosophy of science and the neo-orthodoxy of Protestant theology that left a bifurcation between science and religion along lines of objective/subjective, cognitive/noncognitive, empirical/transcendental. While this perspective was variously interpreted and appraised, it was held alike by scientist and theologian. These perspectives gave way in the 1960s to recognition that science may not be all that purely objective, cognitive, and empirical, together with the advent into philosophy of religion of such notions as language games, realms of discourse, and category mistakes drawn from the vogue of ordinary-language analysis. The result was to see scientific discourse and religious discourse as two different ways to talk about the world, two different ways of being in the world.
