EVOLUTION IS SCIENCE AND RELIGION IS ANTI-SCIENCE
 
The theory of evolution should be called the theory of change. It is not strictly speaking evolution. Science and human nature want to understand the universe not just how it works. Science simply finds that the universe is not made for us. We are not really an evolution in the sense of a progression for we have destroyed so many species and done so much damage to our planet and one day billions will die because of our reckless choices. How arrogant are we if we see ourselves as evolved in the progressive sense? How dangerous it is is to think that for we are in danger of being wiped out and our body types are made in such a way that they make us vulnerable to disappearing.
 
Not only does the theory of change deny that God is God or important by ignoring him it says he did not make us out of love if he did make us.
 
Religion says that it is about understanding the universe while science is about how the universe works. That is a lie. Philosophy is not religion and it is what wonders about the why the universe questions. Religion cannot hijack philosophy and call that religious.
 
To turn science into something mechanical - about only how things work - is telling science that if its tools can help it understand why the universe exists then it should not go there! That shows religion does not respect science at all but gives it lip service.
