N2  - In several of his works, Willem Drees has engaged with many varieties of naturalism. In this chapter I review his own preferred variety, which he most recently labelled ?science-inspired naturalism?, linking it back to some of his earlier works and mapping it to an overview of the varieties of naturalism and the ?transcendental naturalism? that I have recently advocated in dialogue with William James, Heinrich Rickert and Bruno Latour. Drees distinguishes between ?science-inspired naturalism?, ?philosophical naturalism? and ?religious naturalism?. He argues for science-inspired naturalism and sees philosophical naturalism and religious naturalism as optional choices which are not necessarily implicated by science-inspired naturalism. I assess his claims on naturalism and science, naturalism and philosophy and naturalism and religion. I conclude that his work is compatible with my variety: transcendental naturalism. This means that science must be taken seriously, philosophy must as much as possible refrain from metaphysics and religion must take metaphysics on faith without resorting to supernaturalism.
