religious naturalism
Religious naturalism is a worldview that combines a spiritual appreciation for nature with an understanding grounded in science. It sees the universe, life, and consciousness as part of the natural order, emphasizing awe, wonder, and moral values without involving supernatural beliefs or deities. Instead of traditional religious dogma, it finds meaning through direct experience of the natural world, scientific curiosity, and human connections. It encourages ethical living by appreciating the interconnectedness of all things and seeks spiritual fulfillment through understanding and respecting the universe as it is.
