All 1200 or so theologies and atheologies of this world are completely
incompatible with science for two main reasons:
1. Because unlike scientific statements none of the
theological/atheological statements can be verified or falsified by
objective physical evidence.
2. Because science and theology/atheology deal with two mutually exclusive
realms. Science concerns itself entirely with the fact-based natural
universe. Theology/atheology, on the other hand, addresses the vast
faith-based realm of the supernatural and the superstitious.
***Again wrong. I did not speak of a-theologies. I refer to Christian
theology. There cannot be incompatibility between Christian Revelation and
Sciences. They are not "mutually exclusive realms", but complementary. There
is also a faith-verification. Scientists may not understand it.
Superstitions should be eliminated by Theology and Science together.
