Science vs. Religion
Science and religion are two completely different creatures. Science has to do with the study of things and items. In science we do not try to use religion. They try to stay away from religion as much as they can. If religion influences science, then it might not be correct, and it would be wrong. For example, they scientist who are studying the creation of how the Earth was made and are trying to discover how humans came about. They are guessing that humans came from monkeys and primates. We are in the same class of species and we do have very many similarities, this is why the scientist think we are origanited from the monkey. If science was influenced by religion this theory would not even exsist. The Bible says that humans came from God and dust. It never says anything about us coming from monkeys. Science needs to stay away from religion because we would not discover anything because we would think that we already knew it all because we only need to know what is in the Bible. Ben Franklin was a scientist. He was not a very religious man. He discovered many important things to society today. Since he was not concerned with religion, he was able to be put things together and risk things to make awesome discoveries. Religion is a very impportant thing in life. Religion helps us to be able to make a path in our life. It gives us a path to follow and to obtain to. It also gives us a plan for when we pass and lets us know where we will end up. Religion is and was very important to the Puritans. They followed the Bible like crazy and they tried not to stray away from it. We need both, religion and science in our society because it gives us a religious view on life and a scientific view. They are both very important to how we know and how we live our lives.
