Is it more or less rational to put all your faith in something that, from the outset, admits that it is most likely wrong(science), or something that promises divine truth, and really can't be proven wrong(religion)?
All of you who bring up the ideas that the world was once thought to be flat and the sun was once thought to orbit the earth fail to mention that science was responsible for those theories. Science eventually corrected itself, but i think you need to examine that before you place science above spirituality because science is less faith based. How many of you have actually seen an atom with your own eyes? How many of you have actually personally verified the speed of light? What do you do, just take the word of science as gospel? Sounds like an act of faith to me.
