I believe there is a God...but that is all. I am no bound to a single religion..just the existace of a God...probably because all the religion books are full of obvious bs.
Is it not possible to believe in both? I believe in God in that I can't except that the world was created by accident. I also believe in science for obvious reasons. I believe in both because I believe God gave us the resourcefulness to create things like medicine through science so that we could help ourselves.

Scientology is a "religion". Thats not really a belief in Science though. Thats a belief in something a Science Fiction Author wrote in the 50's. Meh, I'm not that familiar with it myself. I do think that science can be used as a belief. There are those who believe in evolution rather than creationism, what happens after we die, blah, blah, blah.

I'm not disputing the fact there has to be a certain belief system when dealing with science. Considering most of the biggest "breakthroughs" in science are theories there is always going to be a "believe that" don't "believe that" situation when other opposing theories arise. But an actual belief on a religious scale? Probably not.

I would still say both...
You'll have to explain to me how believing in both is possible. I'm not really up on religion, so I won't fake like I am.
There is no way i can explain it to you in one post. But suffice it so say, unless you are one of those nut-job extremists, the two are in no way mutually exclusive. The Catholic religion has already accepted evolution. As most of us see it, Our religions tell the story of what god did and why he did it, and science tells us how.
