Tell me, what makes this wrong.

[BrianSoddingBoru4]

The mistake I often see is that people assume religion to be just a failed kind of science. This is far too simple.

Of course not. For a start, the carcasses of failed sciences are at least useful. Religion doesn't even have that going for it.

Agreed. In fact, it can be argued that the whole purpose of science is to get things wrong and eliminate them. The more of the 'wrong' you eliminate, the closer you get to the 'correct'. 

Religion, on the other hand, seems to fiercely stick to the 'wrong' - factually wrong, at least. Spiritual wrongness is a matter of opinion.
