That said, science can not in any way contradict true religion, it's impossible that the so called Word of God found in religion can be interpreted so that it contradicts science which is no more than revealing the wonders of Creation. It's like suggesting that God allowed us to discover science so we could contradict Him, and that is too ridiculous to be considered. What science currently understandings is so far reaching and comprehensive that there will never be scientific breakthroughs that substantiate a literal rendering of the Bible. Sure science has a long way to go but it has already come a long way and no future revelation will overthrow the general laws as we understand them today. All materialistic science will do when confronted by religions that basically reject science as some kind of adversary is drive more and more people away from fundamental religion, or it will further establish a class of people bound to religions who can not recognise reality from symbolism. The Bible was written for a time, a place, a need and a people of a certain capacity and that time, place, need and capacity have been replaced by a completely new set of circumstances.

Science produces nothing that does not already exist in potential. The million-dollar question is: in that case, what produces something that doesn't exist in potential?materialistic science Materialistic science? Are there forms of science?
