ABSTRACT

As a theologian and a physicist who have collaborated for a number of years, we know the value of interdisciplinary cooperation between Christian theology and natural science. In claim to know something in either science or theology than, we believe, can be achieved within the confines of either discipline alone. The understanding to which we refer derives not from the traditional epistemology of either medieval scholasticism or Cartesian dualism, but from an improved insight into the epistemological dynamic itself, what we have come to call knowledge-in-process. Accordingly, this paper focuses on the process relations that obtain between pure mathematics and natural science on the one hand, and natural science and Christian theology on the other.
