Is this similar to eye for an eye/ tooth for a tooth?
So religion can understand science. They are not morons. They just have a way of describing it in layman's term.

No. that's Newton's third regulation of action, and applies totally to classical mechanics. there is not any logical connection by any ability between that the idea of the destiny being predictable. the way you need to be arguing is this - physics shows us that we are able to describe what takes position contained in the universe fullyyt in words of mathematics. each and every calculation provides certain effects, they continuously artwork, and so that is inexpensive to lift those equations to the status of unbreakable regulations - we haven't any reason to imagine that they don't seem to be. for this reason if we knew each and every of the variables, lets optimistically calculate the destiny. the position this falls down is that chaos theory is giving us options that this isn't the case, and quantum physics shows that on a small scale, the universe isn't predictable - the equations are in words of danger, no longer exactness.

Actually a better explaination of "an eye for an eye" is "let the punishment fit the crime". Most cultures of that time had the death penalty for literally anything. The laws that Moses received said that the punishment should not exceed the damage done by the crime. If you caused the lost of an eye, the worst punishment you should receive is the lost of your own eye - not the death penalty for you and all your family. It shows the mercy of God.

well, everything has consequences.
everything you do matters, they will affect you somehow.
we Catholics don't believe in karma, though, coz it's like you're doing a good deed just to get a good deed back. we believe you do a good thing for the sake of doing a good thing and for helping others; you have to be sincere and not just want something in return.
there are 3 levels of conscience: 1. fear consceience, where you just do something for the reward or just because you're afraid of something; 2. ethical consciece, just for the sake of ethics and manners, and 3. religious conscience, the best kind, when you really discern what's right and what's wrong.

wait, are you talkin about science because that is one of newtons laws so if you are then yes, like a basket ball bouncing that is an example of his law, no i don't believe it is the same thing as eye for eye tooth for a tooth but that's my opinion

It isn't quite the same as science doesn't take a stand on the revenge and punishment issue.
Of course religious people can understand science. So can vegans, taxi drivers and people with red hair...

No. What the Bible is saying is if someone punches you then punch them back.
The equal and opposite reaction is if someone punches you you will get knocked back.

The Bible might be quite scientific in parts but that's meaningless if the people interpreting it have contempt for scientific methods.
