Can science and religion happily coexist?

Answer 1

No, conflict is Human Nature.

Answer 2

Yes.
There are numerous scientific facts mentioned in the Qur'an, for example, the earth is round (not flat), the sun will extinguish after a certain period of time, living things are created from moslty water, there is a barrier between the sea (salty and sweet), big bang theory, and many many more. This was 1400 years ago when there was nothing like science!

The Qur'an says :
If you want to prove this book wrong, find just one contradiction in it.
Till date, no one has been able to find a single contradiction, whereas ALL the other religious scriptures have tons of contradictions! Surely, a book revealed by God cant have a contradiction. This is the falsification test of the Qur'an which science uses today fpr many theories.

Answer 3

SCIENCE (not the religion of evolution) does coexist happily with SCRIPTURE. Some scientists come to wrong conclusions with the data at hand, and some religions add or subtract ideas from God's word. Now those two groups cannot coexist.

Answer 4

Sensible people know that there is no conflict at all between the two. For example, the process of evolution is a clear and well-proven facet of science. An omniscient and omnipotent God would have had no problem creating/initiating that, right along with the rest of the universe.

Answer 5

Its better not to mix religion with science. I mean science asks for hard evidence and religion is all about believing what you cannot explain. There are matters in which religion and science are in agreement and at other matters science really draws a blank to what religion suggests. Religion is about faith and belief, science wants facts, stats and proof.

Answer 6

Of course. Religion is the search for truth through spiritual, intuitive means.... Science is the search for truth through logical, observable means. Eventually (provided we close our minds to neither one) they will both meet together in perfect harmony. The Truth is one complete whole. Religion and Science are only different methods towards the same end.

Answer 7

Interesting but yes this only occurs in Islam where the Quraan speaks in many different places and way about science some verses talkes about things were recently discovered like the sun and planet rotation and orbiting or the earth science where its said the the earth is made out of 7 layers which was recently discovered

here are some examples :

"And He it is Who has created the night and the day, and the sun and the moon, each in an orbit floating"

"It is Allah Who has created seven heavens and of the earth the like thereof (i.e. seven). His Command descends between them (heavens and earth), that you may know that Allah has power over all things, and that Allah surrounds (comprehends) all things in (His) Knowledge."

Answer 8

it truly is like I tell the gays. the government cant stress the church. Neither can the church stress the government. Separation of church and state comparable. is authentic in all thins and any physique hoo dose no longer take the two an tutorial advantage is closed minded won't be able to stress the concern one way or the different. only human beings haft to end forcing there opinion on one yet another. stay and enable have self belief be factors god would have created the universe with a large bang and we in god's photograph so for sure we would desire to comprehend all of it only like god made human beings in his photograph god made us to evolve to. Darwinism and Creationism. and no they'll in no way get alongside yet nether area will ever no the fact of it in the event that they do no longer. Supaow!! I schooled them .

Answer 9

I think so. Depending on the religion, this may take more effort. Ultimately I believe there can be a synthesis of science and religion, if not only on the very basics.

Answer 10

YES

The earth is round, if only people would read their Bibles...........Isa 40:22 It is He that sitteth upon the circle of the earth,

Only recently we know the path of electricity but.......Job 28:26 When He made a decree for the rain, and a way for the lightning of the thunder:

or perhaps............Job 38:25 Who hath divided a watercourse for the overflowing of waters, or a way for the lightning of thunder;


and many others............

.

Answer 11

Of course they can.
However fundamental Christianity can not coexist with science, because it denies many scientific theories.
