11. SCIENCE NOT CONFLICT WITH
RELIGION
Can science be reconciled with
religion?
There is no contradiction between
science and religion when both are property
understood; what is needed is a proper
knowledge of religion and a more scholarly
interpretation of the bible, the Koran, and
other similar books, for there can never be a
contradiction between any truth revealed by
God in the holy scriptures and any findings
of science, properly tested and verified.
12. Holy Scriptures of whatever religion are not
textbooks of science. Their purpose is all the
same-to inculcate moral, spiritual, and religious
truth.
The subject matter of science on the other hand is
the physical universe. Its purpose is to discover
the law of nature.
Religion and science move in the essentially
different orbits. Religion is concerned primarily with
spiritual realities with moral values, with the
intangibles which elude both the pills and the test
tubes; science with matter and energy which can
be seen, weighed, and measured.
13. Religion has no fear of science. It does not
tremble before discussion but before ignorance. It
welcomes with eager hospitality every new finding.
Thus further man goes into outer space, the better
vision he has of GOD, and the deeper insight he
acquires into the Divine Administration of the
universe.
Scientists are searching for the truth in the
field of nature just as the moralists are seeking to
clarify the application of ethereal and eternal truth
to the changing social and economic conditions of
modern life.
