‘An award-winning scientist recently told the world that science and religion are not incompatible.’

The folks that zaid the hymalayas will melt by 2020 are the same money changers from the 1840s that believe the principles of thermodynamics and biogenesis do not appply. All i can say is, their science is not observable, repeat able.. just their perssonal religion shoved down the throats of children under threat of law and death.
A science theiry that needs legal protection, is illogical.

science and some religions ARE incompatible.

Authors should be clearer. Religion is not just one view/belief. There are many many religions but only one God who did create the world and slowly is revealing to us what we call “science”.

A true scientist is one who thinks God’s thoughts after Him.

All this talk about "religion and science" is hooey. It always refers to the first eleven chapters of Genesis and to nothing else . . . especially not to anything in the "new testament."

Anyone who accepts the reality of a single miracle thereby forfeits the right to reject the Genesis on the basis of scientific uniformitarianism.

Let me know when "science and religion" quarrel about the "virgin birth."

Science and Religion are compatible.

Anyone who does not realize this should join the “Flat Earth Society “ or better named, “The Flat Consciousness Society.”

Miracles are merely science that we currently fo not understand.

Science and religion are not incompatible. God gave man the open mind to think and do for himself. After all, it is man that determines his direction. Besides, who invented science? God invented everything, to include science. God only allows man to mess it up like they do everything else. Please don’t ask me why, I’m not that smart.

How is it that science and God are somehow viewed as enemies?

Christians see evidence for God's existence everywhere. It is the Christian's position that the weight of evidence from history, theology, philosophy, science, mathematics, logic, and personal experience all suggest the existence of a Creator and Redeemer.

Notice the assumptions:

Religion is all emotion, no rationality.

Science is all rationality, no emotion.

Sorry, when I look at anything not man made, my logic says this did not happen by accident. That is general revelation. And it is ok to try to understand how it works.

Science without philosophy is incomplete, most of recorded history knew this.

Reading God’s word is special revelation. That takes a lot of logic and thinking.

The Oxford / Cambridge of Medieval / Renaissance Literature, C.S. Lewis, wrote that he had received correspondence signed "MD" which stated that anyone who publicly professed belief in the Virgin Birth should be flogged.

I’m a scientist. Accordingly, I’m also a skeptic. I’m not just satisfied with seeing and experiencing as I need to understand the supporting science to accept a theory into my belief system.

That being said, The consciousness of other people, including the stored memories of their past experiences since conception are physical to my perceptions. I read people’s souls.

I’ve been doing this for 30 plus years, 25 of which I have been studying and performing neuroscience research to understand the supporting science.

It has brought all religions, science, medicine and psychology all together in one body of knowledge for me.

When I demonstrate this in a medical setting for other scientists, it freaks them out as they can’t believe what they are seeing.

It really creates problems for people with big egos whose identity is based upon their posession of knowledge or being an expert when they see my demonstrations it undermines their knowledge and injures their ego.

“Let me know when “science and religion” quarrel about the “virgin birth.”

Eggs Fertilized Without Sperm. July 2001

In a bizarre reproductive biology advance, researchers have fertilized mouse eggs with cells from another mouse’s body—instead of sperm. ...

The work is the first demonstration that embryos can develop from the combination of an intact egg and a nonreproductive cell.

The most recognizable aspect of the universe is that it is understandable. I don’t believe that’s an accident.

Science is hard

You can’t do astronomy with a microscope!

Perception is the variable that scientists have assumed was a constant. It is not.

Our perception of reality is a function if the frequency of consciousness from which we view it.

At higher operating frequencies, consciousness itself becomes physical or material.

At one time philosophy was the “queen” of science. Everything else was a sub set.

According to an unverifiable story, dated of some 700 years after the founding of the school, above the entrance to the Academy was inscribed the phrase “Let None But Geometers Enter Here.”[20] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Platonic_Academy

Why geometers? Philosophy is the panicle of logic studies, which science has lost...…………………. Are scientists even trained in logic anymore?

In Platos Academia, a sign said on entry, “All geometers enter here.”
