The Science of Religion




Albert Einstein once said, religion without science is blind and science without religion is directionless.

Let's look at the earliest time of religion. For the christians, jews and moslems, it all started with Adam. And then there was eve, and then the snake, followed by caen and abel. And then the first crime..and then, well, you get the picture.

Why was it needed at that time. It was chaos. Things were not in the right place, and some intervention was needed. How far adam and eve was in the garden eating apples, is something i cannot prove right. But, it served its purpose. Stability.

Then, we had our champ Moses, who introduced rebelion and the term "exodus". This was followed by solomon who gave somesort of wisdom and so on and so forth.

The idea of religion in the holy trident was something interesting at that time. And it is still a great one. This will be discuss next. How did t go wrong, till the crusades.?

Why Religion





Since the birth of humanity, we have always been using religion for everything. Wikipedia says, "A religion is a set of beliefs and practices, often centered upon specific supernatural and moral claims about reality the cosmos and human nature and often codified as prayer, ritual and religious law".

Many religions exists and many versions/sects exist in religions. Religions, sects, traditions, laws, and much more are a whole whirl wind today.

From the time of the Isrealities, to the crusaders to the time of the Nazi, and now to the jihads, religion has never seized to be the main reason for everything.

Is it a true fight? Is it a fight for superiority? Is it a fight for the race? Is it a diversion from the true meaning?

How does this effect us?

This is what we will go through from this time on, in this blog.

Welcome Religion, life and me.
