Resumen
Este artículo es una exploración de la declaración de Shoghi Effendi que la revelación de Bahá’u’lláh es “científico en su método”, empezando de varias maneras que los métodos científicos se implementan e incluyendo perspectivas de la filosofía de la ciencia. Examinamos el papel de la diversidad en el logro de objetividad científica y el alejarse del sesgo, y considerar como el proceso Bahá’í de acción, reflexión, consulta y estudio es consistente con el entendimiento moderno del método científico. Por la razón que esta forma de aprendizaje en acción puede ser utilizado por todos, y porque las prácticas éticas, morales y espirituales son partes de su manera de proceder, provee una poderosa extensión de la ciencia y sus métodos disponibles a toda persona y permite una integración de valores espirituales en el proceso.
