Question: Do you think religion (belief in God etc.) and science coexist or do they contradict one another?

That’s a hard one and depends partly on the religion, I think. My own opinion is that there is no “higher power” and that a literal interpretation of the bible doesn’t make sense from a scientific point of view (look up Richard Dawkins & evolution for a very highly opinionated takeon this). Likewise, just because we don’t know what there was before the big bang, it doesn’t mean we have to attribute it to a god/higher power/sky fairies. It’s OK not to know the definitive answer. That said, I have friends who are deeply Christian, work in research and have no problem with the two concepts side by side.
