This book provides a critical philosophical analysis of the claim
that contemporary cognitive approaches to religion undermine
theistic beliefs. Recent scientific work into the evolution and
cognition of religion has been driven by and interpreted in terms
of a certain kind of philosophical and methodological naturalism.
The book argues that such naturalism is not necessary for the
cognitive study of religion and develops an alternative
philosophical and methodological framework. This alternative
framework opens the cognitive study of religion to theological and
philosophical considerations and clarifies its relationship to
other approaches to religious phenomena. This unique contribution
to discussions regarding the philosophical and theological
implications of the cognitive study of religion summarizes the so
far fragmentary discussion, exposes its underlying assumptions, and
develops a novel framework for further discussion.
