Scientific validation of religious texts

Re: Scientific validation of religious texts

@Theorist

Agreed. This bothers me a lot because it really takes away from the scientists who devote their entire lives to study a phenomenon. If a discovery contradicts religious texts, it is simply dismissed. If it doesn’t, then all credit is given to religious scholars and texts. Not fair because those scientists are probably more interested in the way God/nature works and have more to show for than those who just eat and breathe religious texts.

Actually I would argue the reverse is more prevalent … Where has a discovery contradicted (hmm let’s raise the bar high) an Islamic text and that discovery was dismissed?
