Religion and science best hope for future

The most likely reason we are witnessing so much turmoil and strife around the globe, is that we continue to live in a world divided by objected facts and subjected human values that comes under the term “progress and democracy”.

This situation is perpetuated by mighty but mediocre people who want to maintain the status quo at all costs.

Religion, as the devotion to truth, is the most imperishable aspect of reality, and science as the best source method available for discovering truth must be seen as an ally of religion and together, they present the best possible means of real progress and hope for future generations.

To paraphrase Thomas Jefferson: “Nothing then is unchangeable but the inalienable rights of the biosphere.” These are the values science needs, and to religion, it gives the power of love a greater meaning.
