naturalism and conceptualization

the conceptualization of metaphysical claims helps us to understand the natural world, but how far can we go on this conceptualization without loosing track of the objectivity that naturalism has to offer? however metaphysics is the one of the best access that we have in order to do epistemology, but if we are taking under consideration that concepts help us to understand the bigger structure of the natural process then we are following the scientific mehtod with natural means... what do you think?

I think that naturalism is unequivocally the better choice of the two between this one and supernatural explanations when trying to arrive at the bottom of things. For example, once intelligent design is even taken into consideration to study cosmogony, then there is no objective viewpoint on which to advance our level of knowledge as to who we are in the universe. In short, naturalism does away with the natural phenomenon known as religion.

...thats a pretty interesting point Pablo...and not only it 'does away' with the spooky explanations of religion, but it also understands the concept of religion as it takes part in the natural process. this is not to say that there is such an entity as a religion entity, but more like a behavior or social ritual that people engage in, so it would be NATURALLY a concept.
