Why Methodological Naturalism?
Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceeding › Book chapter › Research › peer-review
I argue in favor of the strategy of methodological naturalism in science; that is, restricting the scope of investigations to the natural world. I argue that this strategy is most plausibly motivated by supernaturalist theism, rather than by metaphysical naturalism.
