Open Culture: Bridging the Science-Religion Divide

  • David Hockey · 9 months ago
    Religion looks backwards. Its explanations are based upon what people ages ago thought. If this information was God-given, then what is the basis for changing it? (If it was not God-given, then any change is, surely, OK.)

    Science looks forward. Its understandings are based upon observations. Modern instrumentation and increased mathematical abilities inevitable uncover more accurate information and better explanations become possible. Thus it is rational to update science.

    Religion and science can be unified, if errors are recognised and overcome. (I attempt some of this in my book, see http://www.smashwords.com/books/view/849.)

    Science and religion in tandem can become a great force
    to liberate the mind and help the humans to a fuller and better
    understanding of reality.

    Why every religion wants support from science ?
