Throughout history, our understanding of God, the soul, spirituality, and science has evolved. Despite unprecedented scientific knowledge, fundamental questions persist: Why do we believe in gods, souls, and rituals? Are these beliefs innate? Do existential fears influence religious inclination? What can children teach us about spirituality? How can science illuminate spirituality?
This book explores how leading psychological scientists study religion and spirituality, examining their methods and acknowledging the inherent uncertainties within the field. With perspectives from China, India, Brazil, the UK, the US, and Tuva, it offers a balanced view of diverse experiments, highlighting both their strengths and weaknesses. Ultimately, it argues that psychological experiments on spiritual beliefs, while imaginative endeavors, can reveal truths about the human mind's predisposition to religious ideas, provided we remain adaptable and open to learning.
