A person doesn't need science in order to believe in something. I can only speak for Christianity because I am a Christian, but I believe that the very God that inspired the scriptures created science. The basic elements of life function on a set of instructions, those instructions were given by a Creator.
God bless.

Today’s science is tomorrows’ myths. What passes it’s self off as education today is not true science but programming in the religion of the day, which is a pseudoscientific belief in materialism.
True scientists know they don’t have all the answers. They know that evolution is only a theory. And, they know that the realm of the spiritual is beyond the scope of science.
Teachers and professors in today’s educational system have themselves been program, and are for the most part truly unscientific brainwashed sociopolitical hacks.

Nope. I guess I missed that class. I mean, I studied Physics and Mechanical Engineering and not a single class dealt with Unscientific Religious Scriptures.
So.... even though I was an atheist at the time that I was in school, I found nothing that disproved God. Later on I decided that God is real and he revealed himself to me through his word, through witnesses and through personal experience. Oh well.

Jesus said, "I am the way the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me."
1 John says, "Even in his Son Jesus Christ, he is the true God and eternal life."
Jesus is not a myth. Science cannot explain everything. there was a man who was part of the occult. He was into Spiritism. It is the practice of evil spirits acting as deceased individuals. The living family member hopes talk to they deceased realitive, but in actuality it is really a demon who is talking to them. This is my example: sometimes the Bible would levitate off the table and slam into the wall. Why were these demons doing this? The reason is they despise the authority of God and his Christ. Can science explain the Bible levitating off the ground by itself and then slamming into a wall?

Granted, some of what is in the bible is un"scientific", but... there is much tht IS scientific... and so is Life itself; a mixed bag.
You obviously have "bought into" the myth that Jesus and all the stories about Him are untrue and therefore not worth reading...
I doubt you have even read the Book you are putting down; so let me herewith offer you a challenge...
Read the Book (Gospel) of John, and while doing it, make it a scientific "spiritual" experiment... Ask God (Whether or not you believe in Him) to give you insight as to whether He is there or not.
Then get back to us and let us know what you find...

People believe in unscientific religious scriptures because that's what they've been taught before they can decide for themselves what to believe in . It is absolutely a good thing to read the bible, but better to read about the background of bible too. Some people who studies bible and how bible came to be, the origin of bible, the authors of the bible etc. eventually breakthrough from religion and became atheist or agnostics. The people who are driving humanity towards progress are mostly(more than 90%) atheists and agnostics. Scientists, Inventors, rational businessmen, technologists, innovators etc. etc. etc.
While people who's been driving humanity towards war and darkness are religious leaders(e.g. popes - crusades), political leaders etc.
Any high powered individuals who has willing subjects to support their agenda (mostly in the name of religion).

Your science proves the existence of Religious Scriptures of thousands of years back. Science is today proving the past.

Myth serves an important function in society, so there is value in "holy" books.
Just not any scientific value except, maybe, for those wishing to understand the workings of a society and why it does what it does.

The education system has nothing to brag about. Having poured huge sums of money into it it still is not able to produce well taught students. Our system is failing and there is no hope is sight.

Education doesn't seem to have taught you a great deal - how can one be another or both at the same time.
