What is love? Where does the inspiration to create come from? Why do so many belief systems developed in completely unconnected places have so much in common? What happens when you die? Is there a spirit or soul that is separate from the physical self?
Religion does not claim to have the answer to all questions and science can not either. Science will and should keep searching, but to definitively state that science can and will answer all questions is foolish, imo.
What religion gives to those that embrace it may not be something you want or need, but that doesn't make it irrelevant to those that do.
It is possible for both to be real and for them to exist in absolute harmony.
