John Dewey
John Deweywas an American philosopher, psychologist, and educational reformer whose ideas have been influential in education and social reform.

For this reason I do not think that those who are concerned about the future of a religious attitude should trouble themselves about the conflict of science with traditional doctrines.
religious emotional views
Intellectually religious emotions are not creative but conservative. They attach themselves readily to the current view of the world and consecrate it.
