RE: Science meet Religion: When does it intersect and contradict?

in StemSocial3 years ago

You see my friends, after discovering how religion traps us mentally in a box based on ad hoc doctrines for the purpose of control, I hated it with passion, where I'm from it is doing more damage than good. However I later realised that it had to exist, it promoted good morals even though morals is subjective as @nathen007.stem points out - what you consider a good moral for a particular religion can be a bad moral for another religion. Also religion appeared to be the first cause of civilization, Science as at that time was still in it's infancy. Maybe it's foundations needs to be reaccessed to keep it on par with science.

This is what was bad about Religion. As @nathe007.stem pointed out, the subjected nature of Religion is what makes it flaws, especially when doctrine and scripture are misunderstood. These contradictions and flaws are what makes these topics beautiful.

Religion indeed plays a vital role in developing civilization, but I am not sure if its foundation needs reassessment. You know my friend that looking at each religion points out to one thing: "someone causes these events to happen". Whether what name we used to call the Creator, each religion portrays that there is a God. Some scientist will acknowledge that there should be someone or something that causes it to happen like a Grand Design. I think it is the people interpreting the ancient writings, scriptures and doctrines that they need to reassess their understanding of it. !PIZZA
