Summary/Abstract: The hierarchy of explanations is necessary. Both science and theology are rooted,each in its own way, in the human desire to understand and know, but theyseek understanding and truth from within formally distinct horizons of inquiry.These horizons do not overlap, compete, or confl ict with each other, and whatconstitutes data, evidence, and confi rmation in one is not the same as in the other.
