What is the most important difference between religion and scien ce that makes seem to be in conflict?

Question

Like , for instance, if Religion and Science were two humans, what would their greatest problem in dealing with each other be?

Answer 1

there need not be a conflict since no real religion can be un scientific, and science ultimately comes to a point where it meets religion

Answer 2

The conflict is human. Some humans see no conflict though. For some religion is their science and for some science is their religion. They are two words representing activities that are so intertwined through mutual interchanges where one abstracts and constructs on the back of the other. Where one ends the other begins. Where religion is an ideal science helps in perfecting that ideal. Where science is a method whereupon that ideal is reached.

Answer 3

"Science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind" (Albert Einstein) "Difference between Science & Religion" is indeed a question that has sparked many intrguing philosphies over ther years, with both sides laying claims to be right. I guess to achieve the right answer to this question might not be to find the difference, as they are like apples and oranges, incomparable. Religions never explain how things are done explicitly, they are always explaining things in generic sense in order to appeal to all mankind to achieve a higher gaol in spirituality, as Sceince explains the ways it all happens, the intrinsic details, as to understand how it all happens in order to one day imitate and create on its own, that has already been created. Science can never claim to have achive something that has not already existed before, and it is always dependent on the laws of the universe that already exist. Religions say that the Almighty creator has created everything , even the laws that govern the universe, and the creator is not bound by the these laws. So now you make the decision, is there really a difference between science and religion ? Or is it just we are trying to compare different thigns ?

Answer 4

The only difference between is one grows and expands (by that I mean new theories are concocted that rely on the present day) and the other stays the same forever, until it decides the steal the others theories and claim them to be part of the religion (mostly Christianity religion that steals). However you can't really deal with either them, the tug of war must continue on until one has a victory on their terms.

Answer 5

Ok...Science is in denial. There is hard evidence that what religion says is true. Science believes in evolution even though that theory is becoming more and more irrelevant. Religion believes in creationalism.

Answer 6

Intelligent Design vs. evolution is the big conflict.

But I don't really see why Intelligent Design conflicts with evolution.
