First of all, /sci/ is not some sort of consensus board that makes coordinated decisions on what we believe in, and second, I don't think even a majority of /sci/ believes science can answer every question.

>"Because subject A can't answer everything it must be answerable under subject B."

That's a fallacy. You are assuming that if something can't be answered with science it must be answerable by religion. Science is to early philosophy, as science may be to some future subject.

I agree to both, but it's important to not fall for the comparison, because religion and science don't have the same explanatory power. Religion doesn't have any, there's no method, no axioms, no nothing besides postulating stuff out of nowhere to fulfill muh feelings, that can be adjusted in any moment you feel it might have been debunked.
Science on the other hand has a very powerful explanatory power, there is a method, a formalism, fixed axioms from which we derive conclusion based on logic and experiment combined with a mechanism of control that ensures when we are heading in the right direction.

So while i agree with the first because in the first place religion doesn't explain nothing, i agree with the second one because of our limits as a species.

I think either you missed the point of op or you didnt understand him, because what u said is not related to that.

"moha"

You judge something you don't understand.

You are a scientists but you have no clue about religion (atleast from a semi nonbiased pov), so please don't judge it.

You dont understand how religion works or what essentialy it is, and trying to understand it from a scientific pov does not work, unless you are happy with easy peasy answeres that are not true.

this is bs!!, if you think that only the limits of our species hiner us from explaining everything with science you still believe that science can explain everything

Can you please explain then what religion is about? Or is it 2deep4u stuff?

>Religion can't explain explain everything
Religion isn't meant to explain anything, it's a cultural factor of society.
>Science will never answer every question
It's also not meant to. I'm gonna get some shit for this but it's applied philosophy. Anything science can't explain, there's room for philosophy to explain it.

Because science is by definition the tool we use to find how thing work, religion has no role in this. I am a religious man myself, and I know that religion fulfills my spiritual needs but it stops there.
