The Equilibrium Of Religion And Science

The Equilibrium of Religion and Science

True science discovers God waiting behind every door.

----Pope Pius XII

In the common sense, science and religion are considered to be two things at odds, for they contradict each other. In the aspects of the exterior, it is true. Giordano Bruno was burnt alive by the Catholics for revealing scientific truth. Darwin’s theory of evolution is not taken into curriculum in half of the middle school in US because of the oppression from Catholic.

However, in the interior, science and religion are two identical twins who grew up with a different character and later turned rivalry. They came from the same embryo and were developed in the same womb.

Science and religion were brought to the earth since the beginning of mankind. In the prehistoric era, there is the Nature Worship, where everyone worship the superpower of the Mother Nature through shaman(more commonly known as wizard). Shaman acts as a medium between the visible world and an invisible spirit world and practices magic or sorcery for purposes of healing, divination, and control over natural events which are the basic functions of religion and science. Shaman serves as both modern scientist and priest.

Since then, science and religion has been separated and were brought up independently until their adulthood. Religion gained the dominant power. The unified religion, Christianity, became the monarchy in man’s spiritual world and claimed itself to be the only medium to communicate to God. Meanwhile, science gradually gained its strength and some of its theories have shattered the throne of the Christianity. Therefore, the battle of Science and Religion began, and it never ceased, the outcome of which caused the big prejudice between science and religion nowadays.

As I am stating, science and religion are the same thing from their core. They are both in searching of the Mother Nature. The former comforts one’s physical state while the latter deals with one’s mental state. Instead of enemies, they are allies вЂ" two different languages telling the same story, a story of symmetry and balance, heaven and hell, night and day, hot and cold, God and Satan…. Both science and religion rejoiced in God’s symmetry which is the endless contest of light and night. Galileo Galilei, Sir Issac Newton, Albert Einstein, Stephen Hawking, these world’s most outspoken scientists were all devout Catholics. Their theories did not undermine the existence of God, but rather reinforced it.

Despite of the bloody war between different religions and science, for they are merely caused by the lust of power, these so-called Holy Wars only represent the evil purpose of human within, not God. In macro, simply speaking, God is the mother nature, the universe. JWH, Jesus, Buddha, Allah, they are not different deities leading their followers to fight each other all day long, they are different aspects of the mother nature, people just call her name differently in different regions. God does exist. If you want proof, then use your telescopes to look to the heavens, and tell me how there could not be a god. God is in science. Science proclaim that even the slightest change in the force of gravity or the weight of an atom would have rendered our universe rather than our magnificent sea of heavenly bodies, which is easier to believe, mathematical impossibility or a power greater than us. The answer is self-evident. Religion is the foremost guidance for science to seek the ultimate truth of the universeвЂ"the true face of God.

In micro, god is within
