I'll say this again: Religion is a matter of belief and faith. Science is a systematic method of investigation.

They are not pitted against one another.

But if science contradicts religious doctrine or religious belief or vice versa, then two things should happen: 1) The science should be reevaluated and 2) The religion must be reevaluated.

Unfortunately, only one of these communities (religion or science) seems to be doing any sort of reevaluating or critical thinking about their assumptions, ideas, and beliefs.

Your logical reasoning is perfect. :thumbsup:
The only religion in the world that includes science, religion and philosophy is Spiritism of Allan Kardec.

Lots of scientific evidence for reincarnation.

when I was young, i was a bit good at math. but now i need it only to know how much my shopping cart costs. who the f*ck need logarithms and trigonometry and ecuations ? ye nice education system, they teach you ecuations but when did you solve one in real life ?

now God, that has hardcore applications. consider this: God made Eve to please Adam. Now that's a very valuable theorem, guys!


The goal of education is not to make your a more productive worker. It's to give you understanding of all human knowledge which is valuable in itself.

A lot of it is mind-crushing obedience training and state propaganda mixed with useful skills and information. I'd say that has a lot to do with making a more productive employee.
