Has anybody ever thought that maybe, neither science or religion can fully explain our existance? Lets be honest both have whopping great holes in them. Does anyone have any postmodern thinking which could better explain life?
Just theories would be great, i'm just interested.
please dont try to prove science or religion, i'm interested in new ideas not a debate!!!!

What holes does science contain?

We can make up literally ANYTHING and try to get people to believe it. Thats called religion, and it explains nothing.
Science cannot fully explain how or why we came into existance, but it explains a lot about our existance/life.
You want a new daydream? Ok. the universe expands in every direction for infinity until it colapses back upon itself creating matter from energy.This matter in turn creates energy in the center of the universe...breaking what we consider a fundamental law of physics. This geographical center is unknown but the cycle continues upon itself...continuously regenerating worlds and the universes. Outside the edges of this infinity is empty space. This empty space goes on for infinty-plus-1 until it hits another self-contained universe generating spiral of energy and matter.
"Believe this and go to Heaven, or you will go to hell." Is spelled out like a Lite-Brite using 437 universes.

God is the creator - science is the means to uncover the splendor and glory of God. In today's culture, we're seeing how science complements God.
Science only measures and describes. Scientists will start out with a hypothesis, test the hypothesis, and re-test until they feel they've reached a conclusion. Huge time periods can go by following the same scientific research like, the world is flat --- remember it was scientists who bullied the public into believing the world was flat ... and then new scientific research will comes up with a new hypothesis like, the world is round -then the scientists test- re-test, and make conclusion. Then they have to bully the public to accept this new discovery.
Even with all this scientific strides in uncovering the mysteries of the universe (medical, microscopic (atoms), and outer space) ... the Bible does fit into this new world we're discovering.

There isn't a "Darwin vs Religion". The only reason why it's argued in that sense is that people present it as such... but in reality, Science is not against Religion (though I dare say some Religious people are against Science).
There are no new ideas, really. I could present several "theories", but they would all be old ideas in new packages.

Religion by its very nature clings to dogma. And if it is clinging to dogma about the physical reality of the universe, it is most likely on a collision course with science.
Spirituality, on the other hand, can be compatible with science for the reason that it has no political need to be dogmatic.

i just asked a question that tried to understand what religion best describes what i think. but most my answers are right, i guess its better not to have a title of anything an just believe what makes most sense to you, i am studying quantum theorys an metaphisics , but still no really definition on a religion

Darwin believed that the first living thing was created by the creator and that all the various species evolved from that first living thing.

How about if we're just part of a super advanced alien video game, but since they are so advanced that for the characters(us)
it feels like reality.

Science and religion are two wings of one bird. Both must go hand in hand.
