Religion and Theology

The Vienna circle was a group of philosophers who came together and styled up to form revolutionary concepts in the philosophical academics and thus introduced the concept that metaphysics to be cognitively meaningless, untrue and void.  The groups discussions were based on both academics and public sphere. It was formed between 1920 and 1928. Between 1928 and 1929, the group came public on its roles (Beller, 2001).  There was the scientific understanding theory, which worked on renewal of empirism through the provision of justification in formal sciences other than working on impossible statements.

Despite the fact that philosophical proofs provided for many controversial doctrines in the seemingly boldly claims of the Vienna group, the controversy still ruled and no quick solutions would be arrived at on the critisms. Their philosophies were asymmetrical with the logical empirism after WWII which resulted in the perception of scientific theories. There was a hot debate regarding whether to verify the theories of metaphysics or to falsify them in the universality of the groups study, but this only led to the argument that there should be the partial interpretation of the theories rather than the full discovery of it.  This controversy led to the divide between the conservatives and the Carnap (Beller, 2001). After further discussion, the claims were found too weak to warrant support but conformity.

Further conflict was found to emerge on the disagreement of the language of translation and later on was abandoned hence the collapse of the criterion of demarcation due to the lack of its cognitive significance.  Failure was recorded in the attempts of application of general philosophical analytical concepts in the formal way as applied purely in other areas in order to deduce its meaningfulness.
