Science can be an enemy for a religion.
Yet world without science gets stuck from any development.

It is said Science without humanity is bad science
World needs science with humanity to make it better

HA! Dream on.

Humanity needs both.
One does not nullify the other.

All science has no passion.
All religion has no reality.

Both exist within the other.
For some reason most people can't grasp this concept.
They feel a need to defend whichever they believe.
For them, it must be one or the other, never both.

Like I said in the beginning of this thread...

sorry Tom, I have to disagree here... science is a quest for knowledge, religion is a test of faith... science deals with reality, religion deals in fantasy... science is about logical thinking, religion is about sentiments and feelings... science has proven most things that are told in the Bible are false, and couldn't have happened...parting the red Sea, turning water into wine, people living for thousands of years....

I do agree with you.
The only exception being that human beings are the ones doing the science and human beings have beliefs and even follow religions.
Since human beings are a reality, belief and faith are a reality.
Belief and faith do not require a religion but most that have belief and faith follow some type of religion.
Personally, I see religion as delusion but I know people can follow religion and still do science.
I see no reason one can not do science and be religious.

is someone considered a scientist if they spend their life trying to prove a unicorn is real? Same thing with a god, it can't be proven or unproven...science was a sin for hundreds of years by Catholics, because it didn't glorify God...I'm sure there's a few smart religious folks out there, but most simply don't care for science, because they're afraid that be proven wrong by the only thing that can, science...

Religion does not deal with fantasy.
Religion is beyond sentiments and feelings, not sure why you are trying to confine it to only two things.

Science absolutely HAS NOT proven that most of things told in the Bible are false.
Quite the contrary, science is in harmony with the Scriptures or misunderstood.
To say that science proves most things (if any at all) in the Bible are false is an outright lie .

Now you can say you do not believe in miracles , which science has nothing to do with , but you shouldn't make a blanket statement that science disproves most of the Bible .
That would be unacceptable and untrue.

I understand what you're saying.
I agree with you.
Consider for a moment Einstein's Cosmological Constant (His personal greatest failure). He couldn't justify this problem because of his religious beliefs. His religious beliefs didn't invalidate all of his theories. By your assessment, because he was a religious man, he couldn't embrace science.

Even religion drives scientific discoveries.
Could the Flood have really happened?
Discovery of large underground aquifers.

Religion poses a theory and science seeks to either prove or disprove it.
Which results in science being done.

The Earth is the center of the Universe.
Science looked to see if it was.

Science and religion work together to try to explain reality.
There are still a lot of things that can't be explained.
As long as there are things that can't be explained, both science and religion are needed.

are you telling me to think differently than I do? how many people do you know who's lived for a thousand years? Closest evidence I know of to a world-wide flood is the snowball earth from a couple of billion years ago, no evidence of anything more recent...what about turning water into wine? No evidence means no evidence, doesn't mean to just make up random crap, that's not science, that's just child behavior... Whenever someone looks at a mountain and can't understand how it got there should never mean a god did it, just means those people lack logical thinking and no urge to look for the real reason why things are the way they are...

science and religion can work together, the Vatican owns a huge telescope named Lucifer in Arizona, but I can't really trust anything they say they've learned about it because they're focused on a god...plus, I've never really heard anything discovered or learned from it...just one example, there's more... I think to be a true scientist, you have to not be thinking about god, but about whatever it is you're studying...if you're thinking about a God, then they would miss things they wouldn't have missed because they wanna be right about God...it's called projection, where they make something a reality in their own mind...an easier way to explain it would be a cheater accusing their partners if cheating, even though the partner isn't, because that's all that's on their mind...

The 1.8 meter Alice P. Lennon Telescope and its Thomas J. Bannan Astrophysics Facility, known together as the Vatican Advanced Technology Telescope (VATT), is a Gregorian telescope observing in the optical and infrared situated on Mount Graham in southeast Arizona, United States. It achieved its first light (first starlight to pass through a telescope onto its detector) in 1993.
VATT is part of the Mount Graham International Observatory and is operated by the Vatican Observatory, one of the oldest astronomical research institutions in the world, in partnership with The University of Arizona.

Lucifer, which stands for "Large Binocular Telescope Near-infrared Utility with Camera and Integral Field Unit for Extragalactic Research," is a chilled instrument attached to a telescope in Arizona. Designed by Germans and named by Germans
~ Lucifer is part of the Large Binocular Telescope, which happens to be right next to the Vatican Observatory on Mt. Graham in Tucson.

Sagan presents the contents of his kit as “tools for skeptical thinking,” which he defines as “the means to construct, and to understand, a reasoned argument and—especially important—to recognize a fallacious or fraudulent argument.”
