"Modern western empirical has surely been the most impressive intellectual development since the 16th century ". Science is the systematic observation of natural events and based on the analysis of evidence. On the other hand religion is "A strong belief on supernatural power or powers that control the human destiny". Science and religion have confronted each other views about the nature, human life, creation of universe and many others debate.
SCIENCE
Albert Einstein described the science and religion in his paper; he said that "Science is the century-old endeavor to bring together by means of systematic thought the perceptible phenomena of this world into as thoroughgoing an association as possible". Science also deals to tell the truth

A person who has religious believe, so no one can say that I am blindly believe on this religion, but his/her believe is totally depended on faith and he/she has some religious evidence to prove that I am not blindly believe on this specific religion. Some other researchers thank that religion lead 's the way to science and they believe that some inventions of science already existed in the religion so they both have also similarity and also have conflict, Some time the theory or invention can be change or to add further modifications to the existing one, it means that science have no limit it should be cross the limit which may helpful for the mankind and may be some time harm to the mankind. Some great scientists have religious believe which means that science has proved something that already exist in a specific religion. Some philosophers or scientist believes that religion and science both are related and also have conflict but my point of view religion can help science to achieve its goals and …show more content…
Because they have some evidence about nature, creation of universe, heaven, God etc in its Holy Books, for example the Christians and Muslims believe on these things and they can prove that from their Holy Books. And some science inventions or theories also proved some facts, which are already exist in their Holy Books. On the other hand as we know that science is always based on evidence and science disagree with the above some mentioned facts which religion has, but may be later science will prove these facts but I think may be the creator of the universe didn 't give the ability to human being to know about these facts because science is created by human beings. My point of view is that we should keep religion and science separate because I mentioned above that they both have different ways, but they both can help each other for achieving their objectives and goals. I personally believe on religion but also I can 't ignore the science because science also has effect on human life. For example "Both, science and religion enable human being to return to it by awareness of personal responsibility for this world. Each of them performs it in a different way ". And I believe that scientists should keep religion and science side by side to discover many new things and they can 't
Those who criticize Harris believe that forcing people to choose whether they believe in faith or science will only further divide the scientific and religious communities. Harris acknowledges this argument, writing “that if we oblige people to choose between reason and faith, they will choose faith and cease to support scientific research.” (Harris). This is potentially dangerous to the future of science. Polarization could drive funding and support away from the scientific community and limit further advancement.
Scientists made new discoveries while doing experiments and using the scientific method during the Scientific Revolution. Some of there discoveries contradicted what the Roman Catholic Church beliefs. For example, the church believes that God created heavens and the earth, but scientists it’s a bit more complicated then that. Scientists had proof that some things in the bible weren’t true or possible, which caused the church’s people to questions its truth. Scientists are attempting to prove the truth about science, which so happen to threaten the Church.
As time went from the 16th century to the 18th century, the Renaissance thinking transformed to the Scientific Revolution. Soon, it would enable a worldview in which people were not invoking the principles of religion as often as the Renaissance. As an example, these natural philosophers, known as scientists today, developed a new thinking in which the world was no longer geocentric. The thought of an Earth-centered universe as the Bible would say, transformed as heliocentric or in other words Sun-centered. Within this period, Scientists were starting to understand the world’s functions, for they created experiment methods incorporating discipline, mathematics, and the essential Scientist communication.
Scientists take the unknown and make it known. The audience will better understand the scientific method if it seems logical. Including examples of Einstein, accepting scientific theories, and designing experiments show that the basis of Barry’s argument is factual. “Einstein refused to accept his own theory until his predictions were tested,” showing even the best of the best scientists study with uncertainty. Barry’s appeal to logos helps characterize the intellectual side of science.
Einstein's response to Wright is rhetorically effective, not only for his highly effective use of Pathos, Logos, Ethos, and not to mention how he kept simple enough for Wright to read, yet profound enough for it to have left a lasting impression, so profound in fact, that we are still reading it 80 something years later. While the question of whether or not scientists pray, and on a larger note, what or to whom they pray, Einstein takes the question in stride, and manages to sincerely answer her question, without providing his own, personal, bias. On the subject of logos, Einstein manages to supply logos with a counterargument, "Scientific research is based on the idea that everything that takes place is determined by the laws of nature,
Science addresses questions of fact while religion addresses those of morality (Horgan, John). There are believers of science on one side and those who believe in religion on the other side. However, this fact does not mean that individuals cannot believe in both the science and the religion. The fact is that both religion and science are tools from God intended to bring about some form of benefit to people. They both provide knowledge about different aspects of life by explaining their behavior.
The Scientific Revolution between 1500 and 1700 led way to radical changes in people’s view of the universe and their place in it. New technology and discoveries changed the world for the better but also worse, simultaneously. Radical phenomenons at this time were secular views of how the Earth is created and managed, ruler’s afraid of uprising, heliocentric views. The secular views changed religion and the people apart of it, rulers affected the limitations of scientists politically, and heliocentric view changed how people were socially. Along with this new technology and methods of science and medicine were introduced.
The evolution theory of Charles Darwin will continue being stronger compared to the traditional religious beliefs of creation. Among the many diverse issues in a society with intense controversy, the ongoing conflict between religious segments and the world of science is underscored. In this view, the following argumentative essay will scrutinize this debate between creationism and evolution to show how the later holds more weight and worth believing. The theory of evolution has proved that the creationist beliefs, as well as their denials, tend to defy logic, reality and science. Science can be considered as an intelligent understanding of phenomena while religion is more of a blind belief.
Religion–it is something that has been in existence since the beginning of time. It brings meaning to life and death. It creates a sense of belonging in the world. On the other hand, religion, or lack thereof, has also been, in many instances, the cause of oppression, warfare, and even terrorism. Sometimes religion is used to the advantage of one’s self.
The research that does not show the impact of Christianity on the scientific Revolution mostly question if it was even necessary on the Birth of Science. Also, the
Historical knowledge and science provide a point where biblical and cultural stories collide (Goheen & Bartholomew, p. 130). Culture is communicated through common stories and events. Science or the human desire to explain what is seen can be identified within Greek mythology throughout history to the postmodern views of today. The Christian worldview provides a basis for belief in a creator, not dependent on human action continue existence (Goheen & Bartholomew, p. 23). Scientific exploration and discovery is a part of God’s creation.
“There is no gulf between the logic of religious thought and the logic of scientific thought, both are made up of the same essential elements”. Ultimately, religion gave the people a way to create a division from what is considered sacred and profane in
As a result, Copernicus knew he could not stand against the church’s beliefs, so he wanted to explain himself to the Pope, along with the church through a letter explaining his beliefs and point of view. First, when the church got the opportunity to study more about man, they knew this historical event would be considered the pinnacle of creation. The debates of science versus religion is commonly known, because it has been carried throughout time, where religion states that there is only one God and all living things were created by his image, while science
What is the science? What are differences between science and pseudoscience? The word science comes from the Latin "scientia," meaning knowledge. Science attained through study or practice and can be rationally explained and reliably applied.
But based on your religion and beliefs may reflect on whether you may think science and religion contradict or believe in one more than the other. Your religion is may very from where you come from in the world and how your religion perceives on life. Maybe cause of the way you grew up as a child may contradict of you believing in religion and science more. Plus religion is way older than science if you really think about it. It has been past down from generation to generation.
