Are science and religion compatible?

Yes

No

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.

    Faith ([i]noun[/i]) 1.Complete trust or confidence in someone or something that cannot be totally proved/proven. A step into the unknown. Does that make atheism a faith? As it still is a belief in nothing? And just for the record you cannot totally prove or disprove the existance of a God/gods. More on topic, a Christian came up with the Big bang theroy, and stayed a man of faith, so yeah... things just got sticky.
