26. Therein lies the difference between Science and religion
But, is it spiritual or religious in nature, or just poorly understood?

Religion claims the unknown is "God" or provides supernatural explanations whereby Science claims that it is still undiscovered and yet to be explained ("poorly understood").

Early cultures credited the Gods for storms, earthquakes, and every phenomenon they did not understand. Science began to explain things using evidence and reason. We are just seeing the tip of the iceberg of how our universe functions.
