Hi
The article Steve mentioned is excellent! It can be found at:
www.nytimes.com/library/magazine/home/20010114mag-atheism.html
In reading the article and looking at related material on the
www, the idea sharpened for me that psychology's involvement in
discussions about religiousness should be quite central. Would
not a fundamental question be whether in explaining human
religiousness (beliefs, feelings, actions) we need to incorporate
supernatural elements? Or are natural processes adequate to
explain such beliefs?
Best wishes
Jim
