"Science is not religion."

Define science.

It would seem to me that science is the study of the matter and energy based upon what is observed or can be tested/ repeated in a lab. Observations have been made of changes in bird beaks, and of one type of evening primrose turning into another type of evening primrose. It seems a huge jump to claim that a change in a bird beak means that all life evolved from some common ancestor.

Define science.

Science is the method men use to discover the elements, nature, substance and age of his universe among other things, the opposite of faith which merely rubber stamps myth into reality. The real difference between science and religion is that those who fail to adhere to the tenants of religion are faced with either damnation or force of law, where science can always be challenged with facts.
