Difference between Science & Religion

Recently, I asked "What is the difference between Science & Religion?" in Richard Dawkins' forum. After a while the discussion topic changed among the members, here's a list of differences that some of the member's shared with me. Below is the link to the forum question I asked.



Science

Religion



1. Science is verifiable


2. Science is to find the truth by evidence




3. A realistic, pragmatic, rigorous, down to earth, much more difficult approach. It ascertains that no amount of tradition, no amount of fantasies, can ever have any solid claim as to this elusive "truth". Its main postulate is that if one wants to uncover the truth about the physical world, one must look into the physical world itself to find the answer; outside, other worldly approaches are irrelevant

4. Science is concerned with objective things

1. Religion relies on ancient guesswork


2. Religion is to find the truth by a very complicated philosophy & hoping that you are correct without evidence


3. A lazy approach; grafting an ultimate solution to any possible question about the nature of the physical world, and the assumed "other" world, which might arise. It claims absolute, definitive, obstinate truth






4. Religion is concerned with subjective things
