Whether or not you believe in God, you must believe this: when we as a species abandon our trust in a power greater than us, we abandon our sense of accountability.
Science is simply too young to understand. Grant Kennedy, astrophysicist, University of Cambridge I think those people are more likely to take some religious things a bit less literally though, like a religious geologist probably wouldn’t think that the Earth and everything else was actually made by God 6000 years ago, since their science tells them that the Earth is 4.5 billion years old. Personally I’m not religious at all, but I have religious scientists as friends and they seem to manage just fine. Stenger, Emeritus Professor of Physics, University of Hawaii The religious method is refuted by its failure. The scientific method is proven by its success. Religion assumes that human beings can access a deeper level of information that is not available by either observation or reason. Science is based observation and reasoning from observation. They disagree profoundly on how we obtain knowledge of the world. Religion and science are fundamentally incompatible. They might co-exist, but they can never mix to produce a homogeneous medium. Religion and science are like oil and water. Jesuit Brother Guy Consolmagno, astronomer at the Vatican Observatory So who continues to push this myth of a “conflict”? What is their agenda?

Science is based on the religious assertion that Creation is orderly, free from the interference of nature gods, and worthy of study. And the proportion of scientists who are themselves believers mirrors the fraction in the general population.

Today, religious institutions from universities to the Vatican Observatory support professional science. Observe: science and religion *do* coexist. Apparent contradictions only emerge when either the science or the beliefs, or often both, trespass their own boundaries and wrongfully encroach upon one another’s subject matter.įrancisco Ayala, biologist, University of California, Irvine Religion concerns the meaning and purpose of the world and of human life, the proper relation of people to the Creator and to each other, the moral values that inspire and govern people’s lives. Science concerns the processes that account for the natural world: how planets move, the composition of matter and the atmosphere, the origin and adaptations of organisms.

The two windows look at the same world, but they show different aspects of that world. Science and religion are like two different windows for looking at the world.
Indeed, if science and religion are properly understood, they cannot be in contradiction because they concern different matters. I am convinced that evolution and religious beliefs need not be in contradiction. But the debate over whether science and religion can co-exist has been going on since the dawn of mankind and continues to divide opinion even today, as INCH discovered. The late German-born physicist Albert Einstein believed that science without religion was lame, and religion without science was blind. Debate: Can Religion and Science Co-exist?
