新时代的宗教学建设，必须直面“古今中西之争”这一深层文化困境。为此，本文将系统阐释“宗教知识化方案”。作为知识宗教学的基础性实现路径，该方案主张从知识进路发掘宗教文化的内在潜能，推动传统文化现代转型，并以此重构宗教学的建设路径。相较于既有的“宗教文化论”，宗教知识化方案在探讨宗教的存在根据与社会功能方面更具自觉导向与操作空间。通过可公度性操作，宗教知识化方案将宗教文化中的相关有效内容转化为现代学科知识。宗教知识化方案不仅为宗教学学科的完善提供了新思路，也为宗教学参与新兴交叉学科建设开辟了现实通道。在更为宏观的层面上，宗教知识化方案应积极参与中国宗教学自主知识体系的建构，并在现代文明的生成过程中发挥应有的知识贡献。

The construction of religious studies in the new era must confront the deep cultural dilemma of “the debate between ancient and modern, Chinese and Western.” To this end, this paper systematically expounds the “Religious Knowledge-Transformation Scheme.” As a fundamental implementation pathway for knowledge-based religious studies, this scheme advocates exploring the inherent potential of religious culture through a knowledgeoriented approach, promoting the modern transformation of traditional culture, and thereby reconstructing the pathway for the development of religious studies. Compared with the existing “religious cultural theory,” the Religious Knowledge-Transformation Scheme offers greater conscious orientation and operational space in discussing the existential basis and social functions of religion. Through operations of commensurability, the scheme transforms relevant effective contents of religious culture into modern disciplinary knowledge. This scheme not only provides new ideas for the improvement of the discipline of religious studies, but also opens up practical channels for religious studies to participate in the construction of emerging interdisciplinary fields. On a broader level, the Religious Knowledge-Transformation Scheme should actively participate in the construction of an independent knowledge system for Chinese religious studies and make its due intellectual contributions in the process of shaping modern civilization.
