Marriage between religions and sciences

[blazeofglory]

Impulses or pulsations are precursory elements, and religions and sciences come thereafter. Religion: it is vast, and goes beyond the ambits or circuits of logics and reasoning. While the cosmos before our eyes stretches illimitably and immeasurably and no measure or standard can gauge it, the profundity of it, science still tries to limit or take it with measurable ways of understanding it.

I am simply amazed at the beauty of the universe, and I feel as if there is a great designer, or something that orders the universe. Maybe the earth itself an animate being, the sun, the moon and the rest of stars in numberless galaxies are conscious, animate beings. I really can not believe or disbelieve in the existence and in the non-existence of God.

At times when I see the world taking or using religions as tools for propagating their ideas or using as weapons to annul or kill one another I become disgustful about them. Meantime I cannot pretend to say that there is nothing in ancient texts. I read the Vedas with wonder and imagination. It is a spring of wisdom.

I believe today man can not without religions nor without sciences.

You pretty much said it...

For a moment, consider the Big Bang theory to be true. This means that the universe is not infinite; everything that exists now, including space, time, and even natural laws, had a beginning.

However, the Big Bang theory states that the universe exploded into something, from nothing--indeed, it exploded outward from a single mathematical point. A mathematical point, though, is actually (and I use the word "actually" in a literal sense here) impossible. In fact, it's one of the relatively undefined and unquestioned ideas in mathematics and geometry. A point has no dimensions; it's just a location. Of course, this again proves that there was nothing; how can there exist a location in space if there is no space to begin with?

So if there was nothing before everything suddenly existed, where did everything come from?

Natural laws only came into existence after the universe came to be. A cause cannot come after its effect, and by the Law of Causality (on which all forms of science are based), anything that comes to be must have had a cause.

So if nothing natural caused the universe...what else could have been the cause other than something supernatural?


In the words of Einstein:
"Science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind."
