Science: A Religion? (long post)

[Losty]

Fine, but I'm not saying science should be re-evaluated because it needs to do x, y, and z or that it approximates x, y, and z in it's dogma, I am saying that science meets the same fundamental human needs as religion.

What fundamental human need does religion satisfy? I'm unaware of a single one.

Hmmm there's a new forum member who told me Christianity is the only reason he doesn't murder and steal. I'd say not murdering and stealing is a pretty good fundamental need. :p
