                  SCIENCE AND RELIGION



FOREWORD TO MY FRIEND BEN:

I HAVE LAID OUT ON THIS PAGE MANY OF MY OWN SOURCES FOR USE IN ARGUMENT AS TO THE SCIENCE V RELIGION DEBATE. THIS MEDIA IS NOT INTENDED TO ASSUAGE YOU FROM YOUR OWN RELIGIOSITY - BUT RATHER INFORM YOU OF THE HUGE WEIGHT OF EVIDENCE WHICH SUPPORTS MY WORLD VIEW WHICH HAS GONE FROM STRENGTH TO STRENGTH SINCE THE ENLIGHTENMENT AND THE REDISCOVERY OF GREEK WORKS.

SCIENCE - AS IT BEGINS TO THEORIES ABOUT MANY WORLDS AND MULTIVERSES , DARK MATTER AND DARK ENERGY - WHICH IS LITTLE UNDERSTOOD - DOES NOT DISCOUNT THE POSSIBILITY OF GOD LIKE BEINGS - INDEED MODERN THEORYS MAKE THEM AN INEVITABLE BY PRODUCT OF ANY UNIVERSE - DAWKINS SAYS AS MUCH. BUT I CONTEND AS DOES HE, THAT GODS EVOLVE AS ALL THINGS EVOLVE - BY THE SAME MECHANISIMS AND PROCESSES - THINGS BEGIN SIMPLE AND GROW IN ASTONISHING COMPLEXITY OVER AEONS.
