Science & Religion

Science and religion are like oil and water to most people, they just don't mix.  In fact, science competes with and attempts to override religion in most cases, and vice versa.  But, this week celebrations of Galileo took place, and even the Catholic Church was involved.  In a sort of truce between the two competing forces, both joined together to celebrate Galileo's achievements.

I'm glad that such an event could occur because I don't think it always needs to be science against religion. I think there is often a middle ground, which should be explored and accepted more often.

What do you think?
