A few weeks back I mentioned that there were several thousand courses that could be taken free on line. I finished the photography series (the verdict is still out on the utility) and am now taking a series of courses that compare and contrast science, religion, and philosophy. These courses focus not only on the domains each purport to occupy, but also the compatibility of each with the other two.
Those who hold that science is the premier approach to understanding life and the world seem to hold the high ground. To them science is their god and there is no other God. For them there is no capital ‘G’ God. For my part, when science can explain what a ‘thought’ is, how it forms and influence, and where it goes once it is thought, then I’ll allow that science may intrude into religion’s space. Until then, I’ll just play with my thoughts.
