Blog 32
I’m going to write about the people who believe religion and people who believe science. Many people believe in religion. Almost of civil wars in the world arose from conflict between religions. Religion is very important like this. People usually try to feel rest in their mind through religion. Moreover, people before Modern Ages believe in religion passionately than now. They thought that God created human. However, an English naturalist, Charles Darwin wrote a book “On the Origin of Species” This book included his opinion which human is not created by God. Human has evolved themselves from monkey. Of course, many religionists criticized him. One pedometer newspaper at that time put a picture which drew Darwin as monkey. When he died, he said that On the Origin of Species was wrong. However, it was not his right mind. He had to say inevitably because he was common naturalist who couldn’t stand against powerful religious world. Although his claim was criticized at that time, it started to be accepted and learned by many people since modern ages began. Even common people who don’t have interest on science know that human has evolved from monkey. However, strict religionists still don’t agree his claim. They believe that human was created by God. As a result, religionists often conflict with scientists. This conflict still continued. What is the method to solve this conflict? Religion is very important which can’t be touched easily. People have depended on religion from a very long time ago. It’s not easy to change their sense of value. Scientist and religionist should have more meetings than now. Of course, the first time is very difficult. However, if they talk slowly and carefully, they will find answer to understand each other. Any problems are not solved without talking. Scientists have to show evidence which human has evolved from a long time ago and religionists have to make scientist don’t forget existence of God through meeting. I also agree that if people forget existence of God, it also causes trouble. Their role is to control faults of each side.

I also wrote my blog on a science/religion subject. I think you should read/watch the video I posted on my blog 32 (there are 3 parts. I only posted the first video, but you should watch all of them because the 2nd video is where it starts to get interesting).
ReplyDeleteI was watching the history channel when they were talking about extraterrestrial life. They were saying that IF people discovered there were alien life forms, the world would fall into such a chaos and that the basis of many religions would crumble. I think that is a pretty good example of how religion and science are so different. It's very interesting and controversial.
