Sarkar I think you got a bit carried away. I never compare science with religion. There is no good reason to do so. Just because some scientific facts or phenomenon are refered to in the Quran does not mean Quran is a book of science. This is what uneducated mullahs do not emphasize and people follow ridiculous statements en masse about Quran as the book of everything that there can be. Sir you should give some thought about it yourself. Its OK to criticize the jahil mullahs, even I do, but that does not change my perception of reality.

And ahadith are not scientific literature. So again someone who draws such a parallel needs serious education. And one who forms opinions based on such arguments need even more education.

A reason why a select few scientific phenomenon are mentioned in the Quran is only to attest its veracity and micraculous nature. The things mentioned in it could not have been known 1400 years ago. Infact a person who has some good scientific educational background should be astonished how could these things have been mentioned 1400 years ago. Obviously such knowledge could have only flowed from some higher intervention and human knowledge was not advanced enough to deduce such things. And this is all that it is.

Re: Why does Islam contradicts Science?

how can u say that your not religious... all your posts themselves show how religious you are?

because all the things you have mentioned ... the truth is no one knows they are true or not. science and religion contradict each other because there is no proof. there is no proof that god exists, no proof that any of it is true etc etc. thats the main reason that science contradicts religion, because science is based on proof and evidence... what u can see in front of your eyes...

you believe all these things, religion etc be true.... but the truth is that u dont even know because there is no proof.. theres only your own **faith **that it is true. who knows...

Re: Why does Islam contradicts Science?

Science is not the study of God. So there should be no comparisons between science and religion. Two different things with two different goals.

Re: Why does Islam contradicts Science?

not really... science in the broadest terms refers to gaining knowledge about almost every single topic u can think of .. therefore religious knowledge could be termed a type of "science" as well..... ya?

No, science is much more constrained than that. Economics is not science. The Social Sciences barely qualify. Even Computer Science is more a field of Mathematics (which is not science).

It's a complicated topic, but it should be known that science is not synonymous with the methodological study of any subject. This may be a common use of the term, but it is a misuse.

Re: Why does Islam contradicts Science?

^ no its not that constrained . Dictionary definition of science:

1.a branch of knowledge or study dealing with a body of facts or truths systematically arranged and showing the operation of general laws: the mathematical sciences.

2.systematic knowledge of the physical or material world gained through observation and experimentation.

3.any of the branches of natural or physical science.

4.systematized knowledge in general.

5.knowledge, as of facts or principles; knowledge gained by systematic study.
6.a particular branch of knowledge.

7.skill, esp. reflecting a precise application of facts or principles; proficiency.

LOL...the dictionary is wrong. Or, alternatively, when scientists use the word 'science', they do not mean it in the layman's sense.

Dude, I was forced through a philosophy of science course...when you have a very well published physicist railing against the misuse of the term 'science', promising to fail any student who uses it as laymen would...you learn to internalize that fact.

When scientists practice science...they're doing something very specific...and it's not merely studying their field in a systemic way.

There are entire books written on the subject; suffice it to say any of those definitions you provided are absolutely wretched with respect to what scientists actually do.

There's a world of difference between any hard science, and what economists or accountants do. Or English students, for that matter.
