To: aliquando

There are a lot of people who think they can fit God in a box and somehow make him stay in there.

Science and salvation are not mutually exclusive. You can have both.

In fact, if you spend enough time studying science with an open mind, one can attribute our existence and that of the Universe to the vagaries of chance, or to God. Chances are that people who believe that God can design such a complex and intricate Universe full of beauty and elegance live much more happily than those who think 1 in infinity counts as a plausible explanation for our existence.

Or, as I say, "If there is no God, nature does one heck of an imitation."

We should take care not to make the intellect our god; it has, of course, powerful muscles, but no personality.
-Albert Einstein

Science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind.
-Albert Einstein
