Abstract

Understanding between science and religion is often a matter of language. What are the characteristics that identify the languages of science and make them distinct from the languages of religion? How and why relate both types of language? In this article, I will address the formal languages of Mathematics and Artificial Intelligence as a prototype of the languages of science. I will show how the formal languages of science raise questions that remain open and can only be answered from other languages, which I call human-specific languages, which are characterized by their internal and personal meaning. The human-specific languages include the languages of religion. Artificial Intelligence can handle and formalize all languages, but this manipulation is formal and external and it does not reach the internal personal meaning of the human-specific languages.
