One day science and religion will hold hands and I hope I am there to see it.C.G.Harrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04895569567643791246noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8599720296307319887.post-81787153497887527332011-08-09T12:50:17.282-06:002011-08-09T12:50:17.282-06:00I firmly believe in the separation of church and s...I firmly believe in the separation of church and state, but not church and science. It seems to me that out of habit, people doggedly go to their traditional faith, or science corners and grouse about those on the other side as though they are the enemy of either God, or logic.<br /><br />Not all scientists believe there is no God and not all people of faith dismiss science as irrelevant, in terms of the soul. Although I am not now a member, by choice, of any religion, per se, I was lucky enough to have been raised in one that taught me that religion and science are mutually compatible. Each benefits and informs the other. Science can explain the physical source and procedure that may create a miracle, e.g., and faith can explain the genesis (no pun intended) of the occurrence of the miracle. What's so sacrilegious, or illogical about that? <br /><br />The religious/science fight to me involves simple, petty bigotry on each side. Just because it has been a given for generations, well, centuries, for those from traditional religious, and academic backgrounds to distrust and trivialize the other side, does not mean the constant bickering and "proving" on each side must continue ad infinitum. <br /><br />Each entity has so much to offer. Why not level the walls of misconception and bigotry and just embrace what the other side has to give?gabriellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03379710476004559846noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8599720296307319887.post-79426068076070236242011-08-02T16:39:55.788-06:002011-08-02T16:39:55.788-06:00Just recently I’ve read the book “Why Does E=MC(2)...Just recently I’ve read the book “Why Does E=MC(2)” The book reinforced my belief the theories of science are just that, theories that can be disproven and/or expanded on at any moment. Science is not the final answer because the final answer has not been found by science. Faith is all you have and well, all you need. <br /><br />Jeff GreeneAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8599720296307319887.post-46620875868356520142011-07-29T16:41:45.448-06:002011-07-29T16:41:45.448-06:00Couldn't have said it better myself Dean.
