Theological Worldview And Immature Analysis

Improved Essays
This bondage among scientists is similar to the bondage among theologians. In the case of theologians, they’re locked into a certain theological worldview. And that theological worldview is also protected by a group-held paradigm and politicking. So in both science and theology, it’s not safe to express disagreement. The bottom line is that peer review among scientists or theologians doesn’t guarantee accuracy. In many instances, it guarantee’s inaccuracy and promotes confirmation bias. We shouldn’t be surprised that the process has been corrupted though. Humans are involved. Humans are imperfect.
We’ll need a little time to go through the sequence of the following drawing that shows the confirmation bias process. While some thinkers blindly

    “The Mistrust of Science” by Atul Gawande is a commencement address at the California Institute of Technology. Atul Gawande calls upon the institutes graduates to take a stance and defend the common misconceptions and myths about scientific issues concerning today’s society.

In reality, we have the tendency to ignore information that challenges our established beliefs, choosing to pay a disproportionate amount of our attention to information that confirms our beliefs.…

Wakesha, you stated one of my favorite bible verses in correlation with this week’s discussion board question. You stated, “And we know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose for them (Romans 8:28 New Living Translation).

    For thousands of years, care of the inner self was primarily the domain of religion. The advent of modern psychology in the late 1800s put this care in new hands; today, approaches to integrating the worlds of Christianity and psychology span a broad range (Entwhistle, 2010). Some individuals or factions in each field of expertise view the other with contempt, viewing spiritual doctrine and psychological research/practice as incompatible. Others pick and choose aspects to sprinkle into their own field, such as psychologists who see therapeutic merit in prayer & meditation apart from the beliefs that ground them, or Christian counselors who develop or borrow therapeutic methods based on similarity to Christian disciplines without attention to empirical methodology…
