There are many different approaches to the problem of the relation between science and religion. It is often claimed that there exists a conflict between those two domains. However, S. J. Gould cannot see neither how the two enterprises can stay in any conflict nor how they can be reconciled or unified. He developed a concept of two Non-Overlapping Magisteria (NOMA). Gould claims that science and religion are characterized by completely different areas of investigation. The two magisteria ask different questions and provide different explanations. Science investigates the factual character of the natural world while religion explores the world of values, meanings and purposes of human life. One could say that this is a reasonable point of view, but at a closer glance it does not seem to be a satisfactory solution.

The idea of universal Darwinism is not new. It can be traced already in the K. Darwin’s works. Today, it comes back to life with a vengeance, especially through the publication of the British evolutionist Richard Dawkins. In the opinion of supporters of universal Darwinism, in all conditions where there is a population of multiplying objects that do not produce identical copies, and there is a selection, by which not all objects survive, there is a Darwinian evolution. The algorithmic character of evolution becomes the basis for justifying the application of Darwinian mechanisms to explain the phenomenon of human culture. In the article the concept of universal Darwinism altogether with its historical context is presented. The idea becomes the basis to provide naturalistic theories of culture and its evolution namely weak and strong theory of gene-culture coevolution. Some critical analysis of presented concepts is also submited.

W ostatnich dziesięcioleciach nastąpił znaczny wzrost zainteresowania badaczy eksperymentalnych zagadnieniami, które tradycyjnie należały do kręgu zainteresowań filozofii umysłu, filozofii poznania, a nawet teologii duchowości. Dostępność nowych metod badawczych, a także wzrost wiedzy o świecie otworzyły kolejne drzwi do rzeczywistości, w której żyjemy. Badając funkcjonowanie ludzkiego mózgu w specyficznych warunkach laboratoryjnych, naukowcy szukają odpowiedzi na nurtujące nas od wieków pytania: czym jest świadomość, jak rozpoznajemy intencje i czym są doświadczenia duchowe? Artykuł podejmuje temat modlitwy jako specyficznego doświadczenia religijnego w kontekście badań neurokognitywistycznych. W XX i XXI wieku częstotliwość takich badań znacznie wzrosła; na przykład poprzez eksperymenty Niny Azari, Mario Beauregarda i Andrew B. Newberga. Omówiono wybrane eksperymenty z zakresu neuronauki duchowości i ich wyniki. W tekście postawiono ważne pytania filozoficzne o to, jak definiujemy modlitwę i inne doświadczenia duchowe w kontekście powyższych badań, o interdyscyplinarność badań, a także o pojawiające się problemy i implikacje, np. ryzyko sprowadzenia tych zjawisk do ich podłoża biologicznego. Poruszono także tematykę kognitywistycznego wyjaśnienia doświadczeń i praktyk religijnych.

In recent decades, there has been a significant increase in the interest taken by experimental researchers in issues that have traditionally belonged to the sphere of interest of the philosophy of mind, the philosophy of cognition, and even the theology of spirituality. The availability of new research methods, as well as the increase in the knowledge of the world, has opened another door to the reality in which we live. By studying the functioning of the human brain in specific laboratory conditions, scientists are looking for the answers to questions that have been troubling us for centuries: what consciousness is, how do we recognize intentions, and what are spiritual experiences? This article deals with the topic of prayer as a specific religious experience in the context of neurocognitive research. In the 20th and 21st centuries, the frequency of such studies has increased significantly; for example, through the experiments of Nina Azari, Mario Beauregard, and Andrew B. Newberg. Selected experiments in the field of the neuroscience of spirituality and their results are discussed. Important philosophical questions about how we define prayer and other spiritual experiences in the context of the above research, the interdisciplinary nature of the research, as well as emerging problems and implications, e.g., the risk of reducing these phenomena to their biological base, the explanations of religious practices and experiences in cognitive science of religion have also been raised.
