DESCRIPTION:This seminar will explore the relationship between theological
  doctrines and empirical science\, with a focus on the human sciences. It 
 will draw on a series of examples to argue that theological anthropology i
 n particular has much to gain from engagement with the human sciences\, pa
 rticularly through surfacing and questioning psychological assumptions and
  other auxiliary hypotheses that theologians often make without realizing 
 it. It will then caution that simplistic conceptions of such science as be
 ing able to prove or disprove doctrinal claims about human beings neverthe
 less tend to be theologically naive due to misunderstandings of how doctri
 nal positions function and develop in Christian theology.
