Can any religion peacefully co-exist with factual science??

Answer 1

Yes. I believe in what God says, but I also believe he did not tell us everything there is to know, just what we need to save ourselves, so yes, I believe it can. One does not have to over-rule the other one.

Answer 2

Most religions do exist with factual science. Even the most basic living Christians, for example, Amish and some Mennonites recognize and use scientific principles everyday. Who undersands the principles or genetics better than a breeder of livestock?

The so called "bible thumpers" on television surely recognise the value of the science behind broadcasting and economics.

What most of these discussions attempt to address is that not ALL science is recognized as fact. Even athiest scientists will not acknowledge every theory as proven fact. The creationism/evolution conflict is exactly the same kind of dichototmy.

It has never been as simple as science versus religion. Anyone who attempts to pursue a discussion this way is neither promoting discussion nor doing themselves any favors.

Answer 3

Yes - christianity, islam, zen, judaism, etc. Katherine Jefferts Schori, Presiding Bishop-elect of the Episcopal Church of the USA says 'evolution should be taught in schools as the best witness of what modern science has taught us. To try to read the bible literalistically about such issues disinvites us from the best of recent scholarship.' For a Catholic perspective, read 'Belonging to the Universe'. Zen is obvious. For Islam, Judaism, etc. -- look on the web for writers who have integrated science into their respective faiths. It's not the religion but what different people have been taught.

Answer 4

Absolutely. Problem with science sometimes is that it's all theories and no proof some of the time. But then, the same can be said about religion.

Answer 5

There is no instance where anything taught by bible-based Christianity that disagrees in any way with factual science.

Answer 6

I hope so because I'm getting sick of the whole Science versus Religion crap. Why don't they combine forces? Anyways...I think that paganism is the closest thing.

Answer 7

Slow but steady Catholicism. Despite their persecution of science's early pioneers they have monks in many different fields. Especially astronomy.

Answer 8

Science doesn't care... religion is out-of-scope. It's the religious nuts who get their panties in a bunch when they perceive that science has cast doubt upon their cherished delusions.

Answer 9

i think of that it, regrettably, is utopian to declare so. It does not recommend that i does in comparison to this style of coexistence yet from background all of us understand that it is you understand like a journey to Mars-- it style of feels attainable yet no person has ever been there and there is little possibility that it will replace quickly. faith as you pronounced is in line with faith and in many cases it is a blind faith that makes taking scientifically defined and proved concepts into consideration impossible. Copernicus proved some thing which replace into denied with the aid of faith. And as all of us understand he died because of the fact of that. faith despite if in line with love does not persist with love mutually as fixing issues. in many cases it follows the line of violence-- fundamentalists could be modern-day in each faith. because of the fact of human beings, technological know-how and faith will by no potential get on nicely jointly i'm afraid.

Answer 10

Yes.
