520 |a Methodological naturalism has been defended on both intrinsic and pragmatic grounds. Both of these defenses agree that methodological naturalism is a principle of science according to which the scientist ought to eschew talk of causally efficacious disembodied minds. I argue that this is the wrong interpretation of methodological naturalism.

On this view, methodological naturalism is a principle of science according to which supernatural methods of justification, such as faith, are eschewed.
