摘要：Michael Polanyi’s engagement of Paul Tillich on the Christian faith and the relation of science and religion
during the 1963 Earl Lectures at Pacific School of Religion, and his follow up with a public lecture and
correspondence with Tillich, show a major complentarity in their epistemologies and common ground for
pursuit of scientific knowledge and religious meaning.
