“ Meanwhile science has no interest in religion one way or the other.”
Yes, although I’d say bearing on rather than interest in.
Unfortunately, that’s not true for all scientists or I should say people who get paid as scientists,nreal or pretend.
Dawkins, whom you correctly pegged in another post, is a classic example.
Nope. It doesn’t have bearing on it either. Really there are many religious scientists. They don’t have a problem. The only time there’s any bearing comes from, as I already said, dumb religious people with weak faith. Those are the people who feel threatened when science says that the current human interpretation of the Bible is wrong. You know, the clowns who put Galileo in jail because Copernicus’ math sucked. They decided that their weak faith was threatened by the idea that the universe didn’t revolve around the earth. Even though that was just a human interpretation of the Bible which is really quite vague about orbital mechanics. Galileo was quite religious and thought his observations and math showed how awesome God was, putting all these things in self perpetuating orbits and all.
So no. Science has no bearing on religion either.
