Religious naturalism (RN) combines a naturalist worldview with perceptions and values commonly associated with religions.〔Jerome Stone, Religious Naturalism Today, SUNY Press 2008, page 1〕 〔Michael S. Hogue, The Promise of Religious Naturalism, Rowman & Littlefield 2010, pages xix-xx〕 In this “religious” is understood in general terms, separate from established traditions, in designating feelings and concerns (e.g. gratitude, wonder, humility, compassion) that are often described as spiritual or religious〔Varadaraja V. Raman, Book-jacket review of Loyal Rue’s “Nature is Enough”, SUNY Press 2012〕〔Loyal Rue, Nature is Enough, SUNY Press 2012, page 114〕〔Michael Cavanaugh, “What is Religious Naturalism?”, Zygon 2000, page 242〕 and “naturalism” refers to a view that the natural world is all we have substantiated reason to believe exists and there is no substantiated reason to believe that anything, including deities, exists or may act in ways that are independent of the natural order.〔Loyal Rue, Nature is Enough, SUNY Press 2012, page 91〕〔Wesley Wildman. Religious Naturalism: What It Can Be, and What It Need Not Be. Page 36〕 Areas of RN inquiry include attempts to understand the natural world and the spiritual and moral implications of naturalist views.〔Ursula Goodenough, NPR 13.7 Blog, November 23, 2014: What is religious naturalism?〕 Understanding is based in knowledge obtained through scientific inquiry and insights from the humanities and the arts.〔Michael S. Hogue. Religion Without God: An Essay on Religious Naturalism. The Fourth R 27:3 (Spring 2014)〕 Religious naturalists use these perspectives in responding to personal and social challenges (e.g. finding purpose, seeking justice, coming to terms with mortality) and in relating to the natural world.〔Ursula Goodenough, NPR 13.7 Blog, November 23, 2014: What is religious naturalism?〕 ==Naturalism== All forms of religious naturalism, being naturalistic in their basic beliefs, assert that the natural world is the center of our most significant experiences and understandings. Consequently, nature is considered as the ultimate value in assessing one's being. Religious naturalists, despite having followed differing cultural and individual paths, affirm the human need for meaning and value in their lives. They draw on two fundamental convictions in those quests: the sense of Nature's richness, spectacular complexity, and fertility, and the recognition that Nature is the only realm in which people live out their lives. Humans are considered interconnected parts of Nature. Science is a fundamental, indispensable component of the paradigm of religious naturalism. It relies on mainstream science to reinforce religious and spiritual perspectives. Science is the primary interpretive tool for religious naturalism, because, scientific methods are thought to provide the most reliable understanding of Nature and the world, including human nature.
