Abstract

Positive relationships exist between medicine and religion. Three elements upon which religion and medicine interface are reverence and awe, power, and particularity. Implications of each of these areas and their pertinence in medical decision making are illustrated. Basic ethical issues are seen to rest on religious presuppositions, often unacknowledged. The supportive and critical tension between medicine and religion is important and renewing for both disciplines.
