Non-religious people criticize science too. The field of science itself is based on the perpetual criticism and examination of its methodologies. Some times people make bad arguments against some scientific ideas, but that doesn't make all criticisms of science invalid, or anyone who is religious incapable of making a valid critical argument related to science.
Of course not, I am not religious but I respect those who are and use it for the right reasons. But the two have nothing to do with one another. Science in principle is based upon facts. Of course some scientific studies and what not are scientific theories that absolutely are and should be debated.
Thats right, the two have nothing (very little) to do with each other. The premise of the thread itself is a non-sequitur, but a common concept that is understandable as it is so popular to shit on faith of any kind now days.
I completely agree. While religion has been used as a tool to control for centuries, it surely isn't always that way. Many provide a solid moral guideline.
