Abstract
In article comparative analysis of main methodological ideas and approaches to a problem of a Socio-cultural context and Christian and philosophical sources of genesis of modern European science is carried out. It is shown that according to S. Yaki's concept, Christian Catholicism in which Creator's cult based on cosmological argument was systematically emphasized was religion, which created optimum for development of science. The Protestant hypothesis of M. Weber – R. Merton differs in a reduction of analysis of religious terms of emergence of science to features of a Puritan way of life, and data of specifics of science to simply to interpreted experimentalism. Similar from conditions does not give chance of an explanation of substantial transformations of bases of antique and medieval science, which led to formation of bases of modern European natural sciences. The conclusion that method of absolute metaphysical prerequisites of R. J. Collingwood allows to reveal Christian theological the postulates functioning as contexts which being excremental in outlook of founders of classical science of Modern times is drawn, had impact on content of their scientific ideas. It is noted that considered theoretical-methodological approaches do not mutual denial and, on contrary, complement each other. DOI: 10.5901/mjss.2015.v6n5s3p99

The appeal to the declared subject is caused by some the circumstances connected with functioning of science and some effects of scientific and technical progress in the modern world
It should be noted that the significant place in works of the British researcher is allocated for consideration of more concrete, direct reason of this process, which he sees in the metaphysical provisions caused by specifics of medieval theological interpretation of a doctrine of Divine creation
From the point of view of the English researcher, with a Christian doctrine of divine creation according to which the nature is creation of Almighty and transcendental God, the most important metaphysical prerequisite of the modern European science consisting in understanding of the character of cars are connected
Summary
The appeal to the declared subject is caused by some the circumstances connected with functioning of science and some effects of scientific and technical progress in the modern world. Dependence of formation and development of the modern European science on social and economic conditions of the arising capitalism, on growth of the cities and craft production, from interaction of practical experience of free handicraftsmen and abstract thinking of scientists, Protestant ethics and new norms of scientific research is investigated.
