Science and religion

 Science and religion are two different concerns. Science is a practical concern of developmental process but religion is one kind of belief in doxology. Man owes to science and man thinks that he should be directed by religion.

Theses subject: Science and religion both are needful to take the real taste of our practical life. 

We live in an age of science. But religion is the belier in higher unseen controlling power. They have a reciprocal relation. Science is the most in formidable truth in human history. Perhaps, this is the most obvious reason some people would like to prove the authenticity of religion by illustrating scientific theories which are other wise completely incompatible with relation. 

Science and religion: Science deals with the material world that we know. Religion is concerned with a divine order that we imagine. Science depends on reason, religion on institution. The scientist bases himself on material facts; religion takes its stand on spiritual ideas. The scientist works in the laboratory of the material world; the religion teacher probes into the recesses of the inward mind. The goal of science is achievement and that of religion is realization.

Basis of civilization: Modern civilization is based on science. In every sphere of modern life, science is an inevitable reality. It is beyond one’s imagination how many people are now-a-days under the influence of science and technology. In material world we can not remain isolated for a moment from science. But men have to lead a spiritual life in addition to their material lives. To a human being nothing is as true as death. We do not know where we have come from and where shall have to go.

History of theology: Scientific theories do not have any paradox, or any contradiction. Unlike the philosophy of science religion is divided into thousand ways of faiths, based on millions of different roots. The history of theology talks about monotheistic religions. All old relations including the Hinduism preached in their prime of many fids and goddesses. But at present almost all religions preach the oneness of God. The repercussions of science such as threat to global warming, depletion in ozone layer etc. and modern lethal arsenals such as nuclear, biological and chemical weapons, ballistic missiles etc. can be dead by science itself. The degeneration of these curses of science can be prevented by more scientific researches. Religion brought peace in human souls which are, however, pathetically vulnerable to the fears of death and other mysteries of life.

 Man’s beliefs: It had to be admitted that man believes in religion absolutely. It would be impossible for him to take the material world seriously and life would cease to function. Fortunately, a compromise is made; man pays a lip service to religion and God, and then gives himself up to worldly things. This leads him to practice unconsciously a whole series of fraudulence. He lives a kind of double life. He condemns worldly goods and devotes himself to accumulate riches. He preaches love and goes on making wars. He believes in immortality, yet continues to regard death as evil. His relation teaches him to worship God within himself, yet he makes a display of it.

Fundamental opposition: Science and religion seem to go on side by side but there is a fundamental opposition between science and religion. Religion would be sought by men as long as there remains a felling of helplessness before the uncertainty of an incalculable future. In his adversity, man feels the necessity of turning to something for some sorts of help and solace. Hence science and religion will maintain their paralleled courses which, however, will never coverage.    

At present religion supports scientific developments. In Europe churches executed many researchers and scientists. There are other stories of science and religion together. A lot of books have been written to amalgamate science and religion. 

Quran is a modern science which has proved by Dr. Zakir Naik. Not only Naik but also scientist has proved that Quran is a Science. So, Quran and Science both are similar.
