It does not contradict science.

Here are some examples of how my scripture supports science (It's long):
24:45 And it is God who has created all animals out of water; and [He has willed that] among them are such as crawl on their bellies, and such as walk on two legs, and such as walk on four. God creates what He will: for, verily, God has the power to will anything.
22:5 O mankind! if ye have a doubt about the Resurrection, (consider) that We created you out of dust, then out of sperm, then out of a leech-like clot, then out of a morsel of flesh, partly formed and partly unformed, in order that We may manifest (our power) to you; and We cause whom We will to rest in the wombs for an appointed term, then do We bring you out as babes, then (foster you) that ye may reach your age of full strength; and some of you are called to die, and some are sent back to the feeblest old age, so that they know nothing after having known (much), and (further), thou seest the earth barren and lifeless, but when We pour down rain on it, it is stirred (to life), it swells, and it puts forth every kind of beautiful growth (in pairs).
Your Lord revealed to the bees: "Build dwellings in the mountains and the trees, and also in the structures which men erect. Then eat from every kind of fruit and travel the paths of your Lord, which have been made easy for you to follow." From inside them comes a drink of varying colours, containing healing for mankind. There is certainly a Sign in that for people who reflect. (Qur'an, 16:68-69)
In the honey bee colonies where each of the many bees is assigned a specific task, the only exception is the male honey bee. The males do not contribute to the defence of the hive or its cleaning, to gathering food, or making of the honeycomb and honey. The only function of the male bees in the hive is to inseminate the queen bee.106 Apart from reproductive organs, the males possess almost none of the features possessed by the other bees and it is therefore impossible for them to do anything but fertilise the queen.
The worker bees carry the entire load of the colony. Although they are females like the queen, their ovaries have no maturity. This renders them sterile. They have several duties: cleaning the hive, maintaining the larvae and the young, feeding the queen bee and the males, producing honey, constructing the honeycomb and repairing it, ventilating the hive and safeguarding it, gathering supplies like nectar, pollen, water and resin, and storing these in the hive.
In Arabic, there are two different usages of verbs. By means of the usage, it is possible to determine whether the subject is a female or a male. As a matter of fact, the verbs (italic words) used for the honey bee in the verses are used in the format of the verb for females. Through this, the Qur'an indicates that the honey bees that work in the making of the honey are females.107
We should not forget that it is impossible for this fact to have been known about the honey bees in the time of the Prophet Muhammad (saas). Yet, God has pointed at this fact and shown us yet another miracle.
Today, the relativity of time is a proven scientific fact. This was revealed by Einstein's theory of relativity during the early part of the 20th century. Until then, it was not known that time was relative, nor that it could change according to the circumstances. Yet, the renowned scientist Albert Einstein proved this fact by discovering the theory of relativity. He showed that time is dependent on mass and velocity.
However, the Qur'an had already included information about time's being relative! Some verses about the subject read:
… A day with your Lord is equivalent to a thousand years in the way you count. (Qur'an, 22:47)
He directs the whole affair from heaven to earth. Then it will again ascend to Him on a Day whose length is a thousand years by the way you measure. (Qur'an, 32:5)
The angels and the Spirit ascend to Him in a day whose length is fifty thousand years. (Qur'an, 70:4)
The fact that the relativity of time is so definitely mentioned in the Qur'an, which began to be revealed in 610, is more evidence that it is a divine book.

God created science so it speaks about His glory, the Bible says that the life of the flash is in the blood, in Job 38:16-17
talks about the springs that were discovered just recently,
38:24 talks about the light spectrum,
38:25 talks about "ball lightning" it says that it has a path and is unpredictable, and so on...

His second coming is to destroy those who destroy the earth, How much more support for science can you get than that. Oh by the way the first woe has past two more are yet to come. That means we will be being paid a visit from Jesus shortly.

Well, I'm Christian/Catholic and since I was taught that since God works through history, I believe that God made scientific events happen. Also, God lives in heaven, where time doesn't affect Him. So, they seven days of creation and rest don't literally need to be seven actual days, where each day is twenty-four hours long. Hell, each day could have been a billion years, and evolution, the big bang, and dinosaurs (just to name a few) could have happened as God was creating the world.

Easy. I don't have scripture, I learn from nature. And I believe (although I'm no scientist) that science supports nature.

Go through Hindu puranas, our aeroplane TV etc., all are defined there in the past. Ask or read the great scientist biography most of them say, they got some intution before they invent something new. Search where from they got this intution,the answer is there.

Scripture does not support nor go against. It is myth, legend, and metareality. That is, it tells me something about how I live my life and what God expects of me, not the physical world in which I happen to live.

Let's see, one good example is the order of creation. First there was this, then there was that. Science and the Genesis's account of the order of creation (although scientists call it order of evolution) agree. Pretty good for a 3000 year old book, wouldn't you say?

Uh, my religious scripture tells us the story of the God's and how they created everything. and how to preform rituals.
That's it. :) Any other decisions that are made are completely up to us, if i choose to believe everything science tells me that's my choice to make.
