The Questions That Releases The Loop Of The Other Questions

I couldn’t help but bring this book cover to emphasize the point I’m trying to make.

I’ve been exposed to all kind of discussions regarding the existence of God, the creation of the world and the importance of science and I found myself facing the academic world as just another aspect of the continued discussion that people love to have.

The belief that science describes reality has never contradicted the belief in the world being a result of God creation in Judaism unlike many Christians we were never in a competition.

In fact you are going to find many more orthodox Jews in the life sciences departments in universities around the world than devout Christians the reason is simple, we believe that God love science that the sharpness of our minds and our ability to see and understand our world in new perspective is a gift to be savored.

Many of the challenges that science sets for religion for example evolution and the age of the universe are really hardly a problem. The cosmic days were never claimed to last 24 human hours they can easily co relate to eons and evolution only make us more aware of the processes of growth and development and are appreciated for the wisdom and beauty of all lives that is revealed through them.

Knowledge doesn’t have to be used to replace or cancel the importance of love. Sometimes it seems that the stronger we feel the more we feel the need to “put others in their place”. The competition between ID, creationist and all the other forms of explanation as they are shown here to name just the last example for such a discussion is just an example of asking the wrong questions and overlooking the complexity of the answers which are always much more complex and multileveled then some  of usare willing to acknowledge.
