Summary/Abstract: This paper argues that cognitive approaches made in science and theology, and their results are only apparently divergent or in conflict, and that, in fact, they are complementary. Therefore the two forms of culture make a contribution equally important to man’s attempt to understand the reality, at its various levels, and discover the truth about himself, about the world and what lies beyond the strictly physical environment of the existence. The paper advocates the idea that the most profitable attitude, both for science and for theology is to know each other increasingly better and to dialogue with one another, proceeding to a continuous exchange, professionally and in good faith between concepts, views, assumptions and their theories.
