NowJ that is a complicated question as I believe in both and both are useful if put into context.

Religion provides a basic in morality, ethics, courage and values as where science provides a basics in pure knowledge.

It is how you use each as to the type of person you are. If you accept everything that a certain religion has to say then you are a fool and the same goes for known science.

Both science and religion evolve over time and you have to pull the best out of both to be a well rounded individual.

Just because a few people say something is true does not make it true, for example at one point the greatest minds of our times said the world is flat and that the sun revolves around the earth. That was considered the truth and anything or anyone that went against that truth was shelved. Religion is the same, people used to believe that women that had an opinion were witches and they would do or make up any reason to burn them at the stake. Bottom line, you can learn a lot if you take the good aspects of both and ignore the bad one.

Science and religion have many things in common.
Just cuz of fuckery some big dumb fucks, religious texts were exploited badly and people were manipulated in a way so that those dumb fucks can gain more power (that's what i believe) and the effects of that fuckery are seen till date (to some extent yes).
Religions mostly are a way of living and stuff and it actually helps to make humanity more disciplined which is very necessary to maintain order and peace.
But that's not the case anymore.

I don't believe in science. I trust the facts that science has found and noted because they are evidence based.

I don't believe in religions, because there is no evidence to support the claim that a god or gods exist.

Usually science. But way I see it, religion and science are non overlapping magisteria. They aren’t meant to coincide or overlap.

Sonorous · Answer

Considering that everything we fundamentally are made of is science. I'm placing my bets on that.

Is it 2009 again? Because Internet Atheism is back, all of a sudden! 😂

I believe in science, for sure. But I also think atheists aren't any more "intelligent" than the religious (well, except maybe for Muslims). It takes hubris on both sides to assume you know what did - or didn't - create all of existence. Agnostics for the win, bitches.

Science does not know everything. Religion knows everything. 😀
So, of course I believe in science because at least there is an effort to validate and prove theories instead of demanding that people just have faith and believe in what they are told.

FriendlyDrugDealer · Answer

Both are important to humanity. Personally I believe in science/ logic and I look at my religion as a moral compass or way to navigate personal things
