You pose the issue perfectly. Neither science (at least at our level) nor religion is sufficient to answer all of our questions adequately. But science shows infinitely more promise of eventually doing so
ME: yes, science shows infinitely more promise of eventually doing so, ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU RULE OUT ANYTHING ELSE, BEFORE HAND, CLAIM IT ISNT SCIENCE (BY THE RULES YOU MAKE UP AND CALL SCIENCE) AND TOSS IT OFF A ‘FAITH’ OR ‘RELIGION’.
DUH.
You have the scientific method confused with something else. There can certainly be prejudiced scientists, but the methodology welcomes alternative theories.
They just have to be (generally) testable, repeatable and not break any laws.
