Description

Title:
Uses and Abuses of Cosmological Argumentation
Creator:
Heller, Michael
Description:
In the present essay, after quoting two examples of abusing cosmology to support two opposite philosophical doctrines, I shall look for a methodological criterion which would allow one to defend cosmology against dangers of this kind. It is well known, for quite a time, that cosmology as a natural science is neutral with respect to philosophical or theological views. Unfortunately, however, this does not prevent scientists, philosophers, theologians, and many other outsiders from abusing cosmological argumentation. It is usually the so-called God-of-gaps theology which prepares a snare for too hasty a thinker.
