FAITH AND REASON: RECONCILING SCIENTIFIC DISCOVERY AND RELIGIOUS TRADITION IN THE EDUCATIONAL SPHERE

Summary/Abstract: The reconciliation of faith and reason, particularly within educational settings, has been a subject of intellectual debate and cultural tension for centuries. This paper explores the dynamic relationship between scientific discovery, often associated with reason, and religious tradition, typically linked with faith, within educational institutions. Through an exploration of historical conflicts, contemporary debates, and pedagogical approaches, it argues that a balanced integration of both domains can enhance students' understanding of the world by fostering critical thinking, ethical responsibility, and intellectual humility. The importance of recognizing the interplay between these realms is essential in an increasingly pluralistic and diverse society.
