PERGESERAN PARADIGMA: PADA SAINS, FILSAFAT DAN AGAMA SAAT INI

Abstract

The article seeks to elicit some current tendencies that have made science, philosophy and religion in the third millennium change their self-perception, hence a paradigm shift. The hermeneutic point of view, the bias of gender, the negative impacts, the critique of the ideological presupposition behind each field, along with their respective internal evolution, have all put science, philosophy and religion into a redefinition and recontextualization. By now science has recognized the limits of its own logic and language, and seems to see the possibility of different kinds of ‘logic’ used by other types of knowledge. Philosophy, after Heideggerian phenomenology, has seemed to lose the possibility of creating an ‘all encompassing’ system of thought, and instead has to be more modest in simply identifying hermeneutically various modes of knowledge and their interconnection with pre-reflective modes of being, as well as in uncovering the root of today’s problems of life and humanity. As for religion, to revitalize itself today it has to shift its basic orientation, from doctrine and its propositional truth-claim to the complexity of religious experience, from ‘what one believes’ to ‘what one does’.
