Many so called educated folks today treat
those who worship YHWH instead of science as if we must be stupid. Do you know
anyone who thinks that science (or reason) and belief in God are incompatible?
Maybe they should consider the thoughts on that subject from some “great
thinkers”:
From religion comes a man's purpose; from
science, his power to achieve it. Sometimes people ask if religion and science
are not opposed to one another. They are: in the sense that the thumb and
fingers of my hands are opposed to one another. It is an opposition by means of
which anything can be grasped. -- William
H. Bragg
I find it as difficult to understand a
scientist who does not acknowledge the presence of a superior rationality
behind the existence of the universe as it is to comprehend a theologian who
would deny the advances of science. -- Wernher
Von Braun
The
more I study science, the more I believe in God. -- Albert Einstein
The laws of nature are but the mathematical
thoughts of God. -- Euclid
The
question of whether there exists a Creator and Ruler of the Universe has been
answered in the affirmative by some of the highest intellects that have ever
existed. -- Charles Darwin
God used beautiful mathematics in creating
the world. -- Paul Dirac
I
believe that the more thoroughly science is studied, the further does it take
us from anything comparable to atheism.
If
you study science deep enough and long enough, it will force you to believe in
God. -- William Kelvin
It was not by
accident that the greatest thinkers of all ages were deeply religious souls. --
Max Planck
This
sense of wonder leads most scientists to a Superior Being – der Alte, the Old
One, as Einstein affectionately called the Deity – a Superior Intelligence, the
Lord of all Creation and Natural Law. -- Abdus Salam
Science is not
only compatible with spirituality; it is a profound source of spirituality.
When we recognize our place in an immensity of light-years and in the passage
of ages, when we grasp the intricacy, beauty, and subtlety of life, then that
soaring feeling, that sense of elation and humility combined, is surely
spiritual...The notion that science and spirituality are somehow mutually
exclusive does a disservice to both. -- Carl
Sagan
A
scientific discovery is also a religious discovery. There is no conflict
between science and religion. Our knowledge of God is made larger with every
discovery we make about the world. -- Joseph H. Taylor, Jr.
