Is the truth gained from Christianity, Judism, Isalm or Buhddism any less
true than the truth gained from science? I do not think so. Of course, in my
way of thinking, the truth pertain to seperate parts of our lives. And I
cannot help but think that when God's ways are marveled at from what we
learn from science that we get a better understanding of God and his ways.
Not everyone would agree that science and religion are complementary this
way.

For example, in the _Catechism of the Catholic Church_, it states "The
questions of the origin of the world and  of man has been the object of many
scientific studies which have splendidly enriched our knowledge of the age
and dimensions oif the cosmos, the development of life-forms and the
appearence of man. These discoveries invite us to even ggreater admiration
for the greatness of the Creator, prompting us to give thanks for all his
works and for the understanding ans wisdom he gives to scholars and
researchers. . . . ." (p83)
