Are science and religion compatible?
Personally, I find the idea of simultaneous support for both religion and science wholly incompatible. Here's my thought process:
- Scientists support the [url=http://www.sciencebuddies.org/science-fair-projects/overview_scientific_method2.gif]scientific method[/url].
- Faith-based religion conflicts with the scientific method, as religion skips/ignores steps in the scientific method.
- One cannot support the scientific method while simultaneously supporting faith-based religion.
One cannot truly support both science and religion; you're compromising your support in one or the other.
Thoughts? Explain your position.

8 RepliesThey both are one and the same. The issue is that people fail to realize that religion is a part of the experiment called life. We have the ability to question everything even what we can't see and there is a ton the scientific method can prove but then again it also can't disprove a ton either. I have made more sense about God when I think in terms of "God the Scientist" than "God the all powerful deity" and I'm extremely spiritual not necessarily religious. Faith is a tool in this experiment not a falsehood to be dismissed because it doesn't fit our "scientific method". The universe is way bigger than our tiny minds can comprehend but we will get there with a little time and....faith.
