Non-overlapping magesteria
#8
RE: Non-overlapping magesteria
I did think of an example of a NOMA (possibly): Imagine a religion that makes no claims except that our "souls" go to a "paradise" after death. That "paradise" is completely isolated from the natural world except for the flow of dead "souls".

Most religions make claims that can be examined using science, philosophy, archaeology, etc. Even the simplified religion I described above utilizes definitions of "souls" and "paradise" that might be vulnerable.
