The Relationship Between Science And Religion

Religion is spiritual and pedagogical
Science is secular and methodological.
The latter enhances hermeneutical thought,
The former gives meaning that some scientists sought.
Though Science’s tacit dimension does surely exist,
There need not be religion for it to subsist.
Philosophical men have wondered long,
Where the dialogue would best belong.

To ethical insight both now may lay claim.
Their paths did differ, but results are the same.
There is a problem in inferring from is to ought.
But it doesn’t have to conflict with the god that you’ve got.
Advances in theory and knowledge lead to mental satisfaction,
Whether or not you believe in divine interaction.
There is virtue in humanism you cannot ignore,
It produces Ten Commandments, minus four.
