I hear a lot of people say that science and religion can coexist peacefully but I'm not so sure. I'd like to know what you guys think about it. It seems like religion/religious people will say you're interpreting their "evidence" wrong and it is a non deniable fact. Science is self correcting and will use the most recent information. Religion is also based on faith when science is based on evidence and data. I think science acting as a religion would stop all progress. Any thoughts?
The Bible is not a book of science, and Christianity isn't about science. Just like science isn't a book of religion. It is truly sad that people look for answers in science. Science isn't about providing answers, it's about theory, modelling and predictability.
