The object of this work is the interdisciplinary dialogue between natural sciences and Christian theology. It studies the theological, epistemological and semantic conditions that make possible an articulation between scientific worldviews and theological discourses. Based on some theological and epistemological conditions, this work proposes a theological method that articulates scientific worldviews into systematic theology through the mediation of philosophy. The method seeks two objectives: (a) that theology remains in its epistemological boundaries and (b) to respect the autonomy of natural sciences. Finally, the proposed theological method is applied to three examples in dialogue with natural sciences: (i) creation, (ii) human action and (iii) a spiritual contemplation of God’s presence in the world. This book follows the contributions of two major scholars of the Twentieth Century: Jean Ladrière and Xavier Zubiri. Our considerations are based on the scholars’ analyses of the plurality of epistemologies and their analyses of the intellectual act.
