Title: Potentical Unity of Two Practical Entities——Integration Theory of Science and Religion
Abstract: In the recent centuries,as two universal forces of science and religion have always had an important impact on human being.As the expression and interpretation of the diverse dimensions of human's experiences,satisfying human's needs,science and religion are apt to integrate rather than to conflict.Their relation is an important issue that people are concerned about all the time.In the traditional context,science and religion are incompatible just as fire and water.However,along with the advancement in the human cognition to nature,society and culture,people have gradually been stimulated to think about the respective intrinsic structure of science and religion and their relationship in a new perspective;as the historic turn and sociological turn in philosophy as well as the debate between scientific realism and anti-realism in the late 20th century.People have also been promoted to re-think the science-religion relationship.Later the post-modernism also follows this trend: it brings forward the mission of re-thinking the relationship and tries to realize the dialectical unification of science and religion after they have experienced a process of negation of negation in the period of post-modernism.
