well yes, but let us really roll up our sleeves and get to work - science is SECONDARY. Science is all mechanism and no MEANING

Amen this person has a good head on his shoulders very smart

Sir, science is the best tool we have so far, not bible .... I wanna make that clear.
Every living human should thank science. No need to worship it, it's a necessary and vital tool.
Sir, science never claims having the monopoly of logic, nor truth. That's not the mission of science.
None can imagine life without science.

You use car, phone, computer, oven, airplane, camera, watch, ...
You take medicine, train, ...
Can you live comfortably without them, even if you have all the sacred volumes in your selves?

I am not a Christ follower because I think it’s the best option for a good satisfying life. I am a Christ follower because I am absolutely convinced Jesus ascended from death. There is ample empirical evidence for that. It is the most important decision you will ever make. Your eternal destiny is at stake. Choose wisely. I wish you well. Maranatha.

Science has nothing to do with truth. It consists of making conceptual models and then testing them against nature. If the model works, then it is accepted. For example, Quantum Mechanics and General Relativity are contradictory when describing time. This means that in an absolute sense, one or the other or both (most likely) are not true in an absolute sense. But they both work in their respective realms (as von Neumann said: that is correctly to describe phenomena from a reasonably wide area.). Because they work, they are good science.
