" Science and Religion are partners." Einstein. Do you agree?

[Javy]

He said " The individual feels ... the sublimity and marvelous order which reveals themselves in nature ... and he wants to experience the universe as a single significant whole." In this style, science and religion are not antagonist, but are partners.
Other Einstein statements:
1. " I believe in Spinoza's God, who reveals Himself in the lawful harmony of the world, not in a God Who concerns himself with the fate and doings of mankind."
2. In view of such harmony in the cosmos which I, with my limited human mind, am able to recognize, there are yet people who say there is no God.But what really makes me angry is that they quote me for the support of such views."
3. In his book THE WORLD AS I SEE IT; " A knowledge of the existence of something we cannot penetrate, of the manifestations of the profound reason and the most radiant beauty, which are only accessible to our reason in their most elementary forms -- it is this knowledge and this emotion that constitute the truly religious attitude; in this sense, and in this alone, I am a deeply religious man."

In Einstein's view, " neither the rule of human or Divine Will exists as an independent cause of natural events. To be sure, the doctrine of a personal God interfering with natural events can never be refuted ... by science, for it can always take refuge in those domain in which scientific knowledge has not yet been able to set foot."
"Science without religion is lame. Religion without science is blind ... a legitimate conflict between science and religion cannot exist."

Einstein, like Spinoza, Aristotle, Darwin, and Pythagoras, were Pantheists. They saw a molecule within a plant as just part of the plant, a plant in a garden as just part of the garden, a garden as just part of the land, and the land as just part of the Earth. Everything exists as just part of a greater whole. God, to them, is not a separate "ruler-king" who lives outside of existence, but is rather the sum total of all existence and everything is just part of it.

I whole-heartedly agree with them. Science explains God, it does not dispute God.

Personally, I agree -- there is nothing more spiritually marvelous to me than scientific knowledge about the world. I have never found science to be in conflict with any of my beliefs, and if anything, it strengthens them.

For the world at large, I cannot agree that everyone should be spiritual. That's a personal choice.
