Is theology responsible to tradition or new insight? Institutional
church or humanity at large? Spiritual or everyday existence?
Revelation or scientific findings? In his new bookScience of
God:Truth in the Age of Science, Kevin Sharpe proposes a method for
doing theology which does not divorce it from the practical
applications of science. Not only does this work establish that
theology ought to be empirical in what it says about the world and
God's relationship to it, but it also outlines a clear method for
doing this. Science and theology can each share the same empirical
method: when each attempts a description of any part of reality, it
is relying on its own essential assumptions, or lens. When applied
to theology, the method assumes the existence of God and then seeks
the nature of God using falsifiable and verifiable techniques.
Starting with the sciences that examine happiness-particularly
biology, genetics, psychology, and social psychology-Science of God
seeks to understand the spiritual nature of humans and, through it,
the nature of God.
