Natural-Theological Understanding from Childhood to Adulthood

About Natural-Theological Understanding from Childhood to Adulthood

This volume sheds new light on children¿s acquisition of the concept of God, repositioning the development of religious understanding as one of the core domains of human cognition. Petrovich¿s argument- that children are intuitive or everyday natural theologians ¿ is underpinned by new evidence from several studies involving children and adults from very different cultures and religions. In discussing the implications of an early natural-theological theory for cognitive development, the book also considers the practical relevance for children¿s education, especially in science and in religion. This book will be invaluable for students in developmental psychology, education and theology.
