I think the biggest problem is that a lot of people do not understand that underneath all the details and differing qualities of science and religion, they are the same. A means to understand the nature of this "reality" we found ourselves in. Once we can see that religion is ancient science with a smaller vocabulary, we can be more understanding of Sciences lil brother Religion. But, should we throw religion out the door because it is a lesser understanding? No, because it is not nessisarily a "lesser" understanding, but one of a diffrent symbolisim. Science, in its more recent frontiers, is actually now saying that eastern mystisim has had it right for millenia.
And if we would stop and read what Jesus actually had to say to us, then we would see that a lot of what he says is counter intuative to what we always thought christianity to be, and makes alot of sense in the eyes of quantum mechanics.
You see it all has to do with how the abstact quantizes into physical "reality", Jesus spoke of seeds (thoughts, abstract) and the garden (mind) and how to more easily make you dreams manifest into the real world by haveing your heart in line with the father. Faith is believing in something without seeing it, so we have faith in gravity because we see its workings, I hafe faith in the Lord, because I have seen his workings in my life.
The Lord (law in hebrew) is with the birds, in the air they fly. He is with the fish, in the water they swim. He is with men, in the earth they till. If your heart is with him, he will be kind and gentle to you, but when you hide yourself away, you are like a fish without water, flopping about, despratly trying to find oxygen. I should have been dead, in jail, or beaten severly a number of times, but some how I excapt with out a scratch. He is the way, and is here always.
Just remember the Lord is not a "christian", nither am I, he loves all things he helped create, He just has more fun with us, I mean can a fish dance?
