Expert Lecture Owen Gingerich

There has always been a war between science and religion, especially arguing the fact whether or not the universe was created by God or the Big Bang Theory. Many people say that science and religion could never coexist together, yet there are many people out there who are trying to bring peace to the two. Owen Gingerich states that people say that there is no alternate universe and this is how the universe has to be, then there is still just a single design or designer. Regardless if the design or the designer is God or science, it is still a believe system that everyone defends because it is their belief.

I'm not a religious person but I see it as that since God created everything, then he would have to create science. So why isn't it possible for God to use science to create the universe? Of course many scientist would have many ways to disprove it, but they are all about facts and statistics that faith is nothing more than an unseen theory that cannot be proved by their methods. Science is their religion and they have their beliefs, fighting over who is right and who is wrong is just like any argument with any other religion.
