Science is not a thing, but a tool of physical and theoretical discovery humans have learned based on discovery/experimentation.
That being said, there are times when I can lean both ways. However, I do believe the bible, quran and other written literature on religions are man made, thus cannot be taken as the actual truth (I.E. where in any religious material written before the 18th century are there references to dinosaurs?)
Though part is we cannot fathom the age of the earth and our universe is. 4.5 billion years? Shit, look what has changed in the past 200 years. A lot of movement can happen in 4.5 billion years, but it takes a lot of other outside influences to be here as a species.
- no moon? We would not be here. The moon keeps our tilt stable which gives us our seasons.
- no Jupiter? We would not be here. Jupiter has sucked up or deflected a ton of asteroids and comets that would have a potential of hitting earth.
-sun to big or to small? We would not be here. If our sun was smaller, we would not have enough energy to exist. Bigger and we'd be burning up like Venus.
The list goes on and on.
We are a goldilocks planet and potentially lucky to exist. Are we even alone in this universe? If we can evolve over 4.5 billion years, isn't it possible over the trillions and trillions of stars across the known universe for the same to happen at least once?
Maybe it was another civilization that deposited our ancient ancestors on this planet and knew we would evolve.
Anyways...science is a human term to view our world and the universe, not a term how the universe became to be.
Do you believe in God, science or both?
