What do you think about the relationship between science and religion?

Asked by Introverted_Leo (1957points) January 20th, 2009

This question has been spawned from this discussion.

I’m aware that many people consider using science a more reliable way to go about understanding our world (at least from a physical/tangible perspective), and I’d agree for the most part. But religion, as flawed as it can be, serves it’s own seperate purpose. Though science, too, has had its own share of flaws. They both come back to human error.

I support using both as a means of better understanding our universe and human nature. Others don’t and are pretty adamant about supporting one or the other.

What are your thoughts about the relationship between science and religion? Can/should they work together? When would they not?
