TY - JOUR A1 - Johnson, Paul E. T1 - Symposium on relationships between religion and mental health: Discussion JF - The American Psychologist, Vol. 13, No. 10 (1958), pp. 577-579. [Online ISSN 1935-990X] [doi.org/10.1037/h0041189] N2 - Recent books by Erich Fromm and by Ira Progoff indicate >the intrinsic relationship between psychological integration and the religious quest.< There seems to be a return of psychology to religion and a movement of religion toward psychology. >What can we say about the great, ongoing, historically rooted struggle between religion and science? Any student of technical philosophy and of the history of thought will see in the present situation, I believe, a clear example of the Hegelian dialectic. Religion was the original thesis; science in general, and psychology in particular, was the antithesis. And today, it appears that a great, new synthesis is in the making.< Comments are made on each of the 4 symposium papers.
