Do you think its possible that theres another option other than what religion and science have told us about how it all started, what the universe is.....
So essentially i would like people to come up with there own theories of how the world came about and what the universe is....
feel free to be as abstract as you want,
in fact i recommend it

will people stop making this scienceVs.Religion, i wrote this devoid of them, just come up with your own theory of how it began, doesnt have to be realistic. and for the girl who said she believes in the bible word for word, you really have some issues, you think that Lot should have sacrificed his daughter for the sake of a preist or what ever it was. but the bible aint my bag, either way, i want a new explaination of the creation of everything. no religious or science debate.

of course i think there is room for different interpetations of they way this all came about .
i feel there was a super intelligence /spirit and from this spirit little offshoots [for lack of a better understanding ].decided that through materiality [flesh ]the soul wanted to experience for itself creation .so all these souls imbedded themselves into animal plants etc etc .at first it was easy to come and go at will ,[ i believe this is when we first formed half,,,
man half horse etc etc .....and through this method we evolved into thinking human beings who actually became trapped into the earthly matter .,'abstract enough ???

Yes, more than likely.
My understanding and awareness is that we are all our own immortal souls, and that the spirit or soul is not a Thing, but a creator of things.
Since Reality is basically agreement between viewpoints and we are obviously operating in the Physical Universe while not actually being "of" the Physical Universe ( Matter Energy Space and Time) we probably all had a hand in it to a greater or lesser degree. We are certainly continuing to create it by agreement since it's still here. More real for some than others.
Here is an interesting quote from Gautama Buddha that states it more simply:
He wrote in Dharma-Parda:
"All that we are is the result of what we have thought. It is founded upon our thoughts. It is made up of our thoughts."

There's of course the alternate version of creationism. This one got some parts wrong but enough right to sustain life. Semi-intelligent creator I guess.
I'm not really sure if I see the possibility of science being wrong though. Yes, it's obvious that certain theories have been disproven meaning that specific cases, but what about science as a whole and the scientific method? To me, it seems those can never be wrong. However, in a case where no relations or equations can be deduced, science could be correct but just useless.

I think interpretations of both may be wrong... I won't theorize myself because I believe every word of the Bible to be true. I will say that I have had some theories and now find them ridiculously naive and immature. After reading the Bible many, many times and studying theories and scholastic studies, I now rely on revelation from the Holy Spirit and the Word of God as my only belief.

I didn't know anything about religion or science when I was born, yet I was still conscious. As far as figureing out why we are, I think that no matter how you choose to do it, you will need consciousness to understand, create, and/or find it. I would say that consciousness is the playground for the science/religion debate. And when the debate is over, it will still be there.

Science and philosophy desperately need to once again merge. It is critical that this happen at this point ion time.
Religion is an ancient (not valid anymore) form of philosophy. And when Science agreed with it, it was one.
Today, religion hampers this reconnection. And thus hinders are progress.

What do you mean science is wrong? Science is about testing and absolure proof from empirical testing and evidence.
religion is a book written by men thousands of years ago

We getting it wrong is what science is all about - we learn from our mistakes. I do research and I just love it when thing don't do what I expect!
Religion doesn't learn from its mistakes it just keeps on going.
So my answer to you question is science will get it right, just give it time.
