Philosophy is detrimental to the analysis of religion

RE: Philosophy is detrimental to the analysis of religion
So what? I agree with everything you said.

Of course it's impossible to prove the non-existence of god. However I am willing to admit that the inconclusive results might one day show us atheists to be wrong, though I'm definitely not betting on it.

As for the thread topic, science is incapable of either proving god's existence or his non-existence and hence is detrimental to the analysis of religion, in that respect. Science does not offer a conclusive answer (which I know you've said), hence we must employ philosophy to better understand the dilemma.

Despite this, I do believe science can offer us answers to some of the claims of Christianity, such as the case of Creation, Jesus, or the bible.
