Science is ONLY for the physical world. It has no bearing on the spiritual world. Aren't you tired of scientists trying to over step their bounds?

Actually it is the other way around. Religion should keep itself out of science.

Disagree. Science is logic, and why shouldn't religion be logical? Only some are satisfied by a religion based solely on faith. Others wish to prove their religion through science. I don't believe that there is much distinction between the spiritual world and the physical world. Whatever cannot be proved must have been made up by some human, and therefore not necessarily correct.

There is no boundary between spiritual and physical. We made those boundaries up. Science is merely a methodology. Propose a hypothesis and test the hypothesis to understand the universe. If we can propose a hypothesis about the 'spiritual' world then it belongs to science.
I think it's all mental anyway, so studying the spiritual world is in essence study of consciousness.

Let there be peace . The scientists will agree to stay out of the spiritual world and the spiritualists will agree to stay out of the physical world . Agreed ?

I think that you have this backwards. Science is generally oblivious to religion... it is simply out-of-scope. Knowledge, on the other hand, is the 'enemy' of religion... purveyors of willful ignorance, self-delusion, and 'belief'... the ILLUSION of knowledge. Since science (along with history) is a primary source of knowledge, religious puppet-masters see it as a vital threat... something to be thwarted and, if possible, destroyed. This is accomplished through the virtuoso use of deception, misrepresentation, distortion and outright lies.
Some scientists have begun to speak out... as a matter of self-defense.

cuts both ways john. if your lot don't play fair how can you expect us to do the same? are humans related to apes, john? how old is the earth? i'm tired of religionists trying to deny obvious facts about the physical world, just as you apparently are tired of scientists stepping you *your* turf.

Any scientist trying to investigate a 'spiritual world' would not be taken seriously by his peers.

Why should I believe a spiritual world exists at all?
That's like saying "keep science out of Never-Never Land; science has no bearing when it comes to Never-Never Land".
Why should you believe such a place exists?

Science will stay out of religion when religion stays out of science.
