Opinion1
I do believe that religious beliefs can continue to exist in this new era of the scientific thought, for science sometimes leaves cold feelings of solitude when faith has been cast aside. I think that with the hard facts that are brought to light with science today, there is still a sense of unknown that intrigues the human race, and it’s this mystery that pushes forward the further exploration towards the distinction of religious beliefs as something that can be founded on fact.
I do think that there is thin threshold in the distinction between faith and beliefs. I’m not sure if faith can ever be outdated, but I do believe the many beliefs held by book of Christians are indeed outdated, for example. Many of those tradition and mentalities were written when the world was “young and emerging” relative to the
“modern” human. The notion that much of the scriptures were created much before or much after the figure of Christ had existed terrestrially adds to outdated aspects of the Christian belief system. Christianity just so happens to be the only religion that I have any background in, I’m not just choosing to single out the Christian faith.
I think there is still some importance to the ideas behind religion, much like the idea of faith. Faith keeps the human race from diving into a chasm of despair and solitude. Faith is not something that can necessarily only be learned from practicing religion, but it’s definitely where faith is a major part of the ideology. Many loose faith in humanity or even religion, what then is there left, perhaps faith in science. In general faith is defined as a “belief that is not based on proof”, kind of contradictory to the notions of modern day science. Many scientists and the general public can agree to as how all this (universe) came to be, but we just know it happened and how, not really why… At least I don’t, haha.
Opinion 2
Hi everyone,
Looking at the history of science and religion today, I am quite surprised that religion has survived some of the scientific findings. When it was discovered that the earth did in fact move, and the bible stated differently, this for me would have triggered some questioning. Then when you read the bible of the other happenings, such as the parting of water, it really makes you wonder. Did this actually happen, or was this a hurricane? Bread from stone? Maybe it wasn’t stone to begin with? I naturally question things, as I think most people do. Because it is the bible we are speaking of I feel that many believe it is inappropriate to question the contents and just go along with some of the stories in there that pose obvious questions. By the time of the scientific revolution, the bible had been translated so many times, it really makes you wonder what was lost in translation. I know that I question things, and for most of my life any preacher or someone of religious services has reprimanded me for asking questions, it hasn’t been until recently I found a preacher who would talk to me and accept the questions I have with answers.
For me I believe the morals passed on through the bible have maintained their true meaning, and value these as important. It is more of the stories within delivering those morals that are questionable. Many of the stories and punishments/beliefs in the Old Testament are definitely outdated. People still try to uphold some of these beliefs such as being against same-sex relationships, yet we don’t stone people to death anymore. Considering we are beginning to make same-sex marriage legal, this is a way of updating the ‘outdated’ religious beliefs. There are things we have already updated, such as stoning people to death, and I believe we will continue to update things to conform to the demands of today’s society. It is just difficult to get everyone on the same page to see the necessity of the updates.
I understand that people want to believe the things they read in a book that was written ages ago because they need something to look up to and something to look forward to after death. People also need a sense of their existence, and since science is unable to prove this they have turned to faith. I do believe it is important to look at the eras where faith alone was the means of survival, and to see that this is not the way we can live. The morals that the bible proposes are the basis of mankind and what we can keep alive.
