Abstract

VALENZUELA OSORIO, Vicente. Approaches and Critical Posture of the Relationship between Theolog y and Neurosciences. Theol. Xave. [online]. 2018, vol.68, n.185, pp.236-262. ISSN 0120-3649.  https://doi.org/10.11144/javeriana.tx68-185.epcrtn.

The text presents approaches and critique of the encounter of Theology and Neurosciences, and the need for an authentic dialogue between revelation in THeology and what Neuroscience reveals in its own discourse. The work provides a key of interpretation, revelation occurs in the autonomy of the world and affects what is constitutive of THeology, to the point of demanding a turn in the question of the source of revelation: this means leaving behind a model of transcendence-immanence, and moving towards a model of relative monism where the human neural network becomes the source and constitution of the Word of God.

Keywords : Neuroscience and Theology; Source of Revelation; Internal Statute of Theology; Relative Monism; Neurotheology.
