What makes psychology a science? (150-200 words)

the of participation in larger units: groups and cultures. Think of psychology as the bridge between biology and sociology. The first few units of this book emphasize the physiological areas of psychology, and the last units will overlap with sociology.

The relationship between psychology and religion is often debated. Some (but not most) scientists are atheists who view religion as not much more than superstition or pseudo-science. Sigmund Freud (the psychoanalyst) and B.F. Skinner (the Behaviorist) thought that as science came to better understand human behavior, there would be less reliance upon religion.

On the other hand, some religious extremists may oppose science. Cult leaders may claim to be the only authority on everything and forbid their followers from consulting science. Some traditional religious fundamentalists take scripture (e.g., the Bible, Torah, Quran) literally, and contend that scripture contains all that we need to know about human nature, and therefore, we do not need a science of behavior.

On the relationship of religion and psychology, this book takes the middle position: there is no contradiction between the two because they employ different methodologies in coming to conclusions about human nature. Psychology and other sciences use the empirical method of observation. Religion gets its knowledge from revelation: scripture, a prophet, a pope, etc. Science tells us what people are like, while religion tells us what people should be like. Psychology searches for techniques to promote mental health, while religion seeks salvation. It is the contention of this book that one can be a devout Christian, Jew, Hindu, Jain, Sikh, Zoroastrian, Muslim or Buddhist and also be a good scientist. The religiously devout should not be concerned that psychology, or any other science, is going to conclude that God does not exist, or come up with another formula for saving one's soul.

Most psychologists, psychiatrists, and psychotherapists are not atheists, but have some religious affiliation. Indeed, many Catholic priests, Protestant ministers, and Jewish rabbis blend modern psychotherapeutic techniques with traditional spiritual counseling in what is known as pastoral care.
