[demolished]

i think this is a tricky question if you think about it.

is science important or .. religon ? why tho .. ?

Religon helps make people safer . It help you to become a better person. Religon is mainly about beliefs and how to become a better person . . . the problem is . . did anyone prove that gods existed ? etc ..

Science helps people to be safe. Science tell us what to aware of. Without science, we wouldnt know where we are, what is safe? .. such as planets or universe ..... etc ..


if you think carefully, it could be tricky, you dont know which one is " more " important

do you people understand what i'm saiding ? just think bout it.

Science is of course more important. What if we didn't have science and relyed merely upon religion? Great, you are now in a position to contract small pox and die. There goes your life. Because of science, deadly diseases have been virtually eliminated. I hardly see that happening during the middle ages with the out break of the Black Plague seeing as how 1/3 of Europe's population died even though they were all highly religious. I'm sure all that praying helped to save them.

Religion cannot be confused with ethics, ethics are what we aquire as we grow up which determain what we believe to be right or wrong. Religion can sometimes govern our ethics, but then we can look at certain religions that teach people to kill. The Taliban uses religion as a reason to kill Americans and other infidels. Good job religion, way to screw us over again. The good that religion can do though are things like bringing people together or giving people hope, but other things can do that as well, so what does religion ultimatly do? Nothing, just a waste of time, and money.
