Hi Bruno Marchal I don't disagree, but anything goal-oriented, like life, human action, or religion, seems pulled by Aristotle's "final causation", while in the world of science, events are driven by the past and effective causation.

Science is a tool. Religion is the goal. I would say. If you separate them, it is like cutting the corpus callosum between the analytical and intuitive hemisphere, it is like separating the soul from the body, it is like cutting the first person Bp & p into Bp and p again, it is like separating the yin and the yang, 0 and 1, ... You will get unreligious and senseless technology for science, and insane human perspectives for religion. So, here, if you don't mind, I beg to differ. Science is just trying to figure out what is. You condemn religion to nonsense, if you disallow science to help in the spiritual inquiry. Only bad faith needs blind sciences. Science only ask question, really. It is because we have separated science from religion that some people become "religious" without knowing, and believe that science can answer fundamental question.

Maybe science and religion really are different. Brent -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
