Einstein’s Famous Quote About Science and Religion What Does It Really Mean?
let me re-quote-
“Science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind.”
Albert Einstein was one of the most brilliant minds of history and his opinions has contributed to science greatly and his laws are still taught universally in all aspects of any science. So overall this guy was really smart and a born genius.
In 1954 Einstein published an essay regarding a topic called " science and religion" claiming the relation between facts and religions.
This Article that he wrote really shows that Einstein had a vast interest in religion as well and he believed in some way science could be compatible to religion.
So whats does each teach?
Science teachs us the physical strure and working of the world from minute to gigantic mass and the forces of the universe.
Religion teaches us human values,morals and meaning of life itself.
Although Einstein didnt have a firm belief in conventional superior beings such as a god which has probably mislead alot of people.
Einstein quote from by view of emphyasis means that:
Religion and science are two different things but they are similar just like both side of the same coin.
Science is the study which humans conducts on the basis of fact, observations and experiments in which there is result and proof and that can be applied universally but religion on the other hand is blind.if your a religious person then you probably beleive that theres a superior being that created you even though you have no proof. Such like that religins preaches and basically stress most of the context on miracles and life after death. Which is kind of a curisoity for mankind. Even though most of the biggest wide spread religion such as islam, Christianity, Judaism etc ... they all have similar incidence of the messengers, the prophets ,the same miracles , the same people the same time even though the religions were far apart from each other. For me that is a miracle .
So back to topic
What i mean to say is that religion for the modern world is like book of curiosity and lost culture which makes people more motivated to advance in science to either to prove the miracles or to explain what it really meant. What science was done at that time.
As it also says that.
"Science without curiousity cant go anywhere
While religion without science is crippled"
I have no quarrel with the help of science contributing to religion and helping the facts to achieve one goals.but one of the most interesting thing is that religion has educated people more far than what science has done and most of the text from the holy quran and bible proof such as world is round, the rain cloud cycle and lots of amazing science of mountains acting as pegs and moon not having its own light.
