religion And Scienceby albert Einstein
The development from a religion of fear to moral religion is a great step in peoples’ lives.
Feeling and longing are the motive forces behind all human endeavor and human creations.
And yet, that primitive religions are based entirely on fear and the religions of civilized peoples purely on morality is a prejudice against which we must be on our guard.
Does there truly exist an insuperable contradiction between religion and science? Can religion be superseded by science?
