How can you mix Religion and science? Is it possible?

Answer 1

Religion teaches us about our relationship with God and with one another.

Science helps us better understand an appreciate His creation.

The Bible was never meant to be a science book, and science was never meant to be a catechism.

Answer 2

"Science and religion [are] no longer seen as incompatible."
-- The Daily Telegraph, London, May 26, 1999.

Actually, it's Science & the Bible
--or, Science & True Religion--
that are compatible ...
Religion in general has so many different ideas
it makes one dizzy!

Answer 3

Sure. Religion is a social control mechanism - rules someone comes up with for others to follow in order to accomplish some goal. I think what you want to ask is can you mix science and spirituality. Science is just about defining and reproducing a process, whether it's starts with human beings performing tasks to build pyramids or extending that to creating technology which accomplishes something, it's all the conversion of a process into a series of steps that can be repeated and validated as "true". What we don't know with regard to spirituality is definitively that others have the same feelings we do - meaning I feel what I call love and you feel what you call love and what we feel is the same thing. No one knows that and so far can't prove that. In the next 20 years, that will probably not be the case.

Answer 4

Every "scientific" statistically crunched experiment has one very important residual reminder that at one time, religion was the proponant of science: every experiment is tested against the null hypothsis (in other words, that we cant affect this variable, to make a long store short - long ago, it was inferred that if "we" as scientists couldn't manipulate that variable, how it acted was the will of god....)
There really is no conflict between god and science -
If you look at the Strong Anthropic Principle (from Astronomical Physics) it believes that our ability of comprehend the universe is directly related to the universes ability to express itself....
As an example - if the universe wanted me in detroit to talk to you where ever you are over a computer, it couldnt have happened in 1790....first we needed radio, then TV, then big blue, etc....
It gets big and philosophical - but most scientists are doctors of philosophy, because when all is said and done every science - EVERY ONE - comes down to two questions....
Why are we here and what is the meaning of life....

Answer 5

faith does not " stress" me to do something. you apart from mght fail to nicely known that the Lord isn't anybody faith. the more suitable religions all communicate of one Lord, that's then diluted into separate identities and downgraded into some human type. permit's settle for it people; the Lord does not could prepare existence by coming down in some type or reincarnation. The writer of the UNIVERSE does not could prepare something. What the Lord has achieved even in spite of the shown fact that, replaced into to create a international so completely balanced, meticulously designed to take care of existence in an ever increasing universe the two as impressive that one can not fathom it forming from a random series of activities. technology can not clarify how the genetic code, so complicated and intricately woven to offer existence may be the manufactured from nicely, unquestionably no longer something. you may think of, being the rational skeptic, that there is surmountable evidence that we did no longer come from apes and that the cosmos, so completely derived, replaced into no longer an twist of destiny. To have self assurance that must be irrational even from a clinical view.

Answer 7

For the most part, it's foolishness. While evidence does not destroy faith, faith does not work in science and religion is too thin in evidence. One study had people praying for half the people undergoing elective surgery. There was no difference between the group.

Answer 8

Check out "The Universe in a Single Atom" by the Dalai Lama, and Bob Dylan's Album, "No Direction Home." Between the two they cover the subject.
No joke!

Answer 9

Hmmmmm. I belong to the United Church of Religious Science. I'd say it's quite possible to mix the two.
