Although one can believe in God and science at the same time, science cannot prove the existence of a God. In science, there are many unanswered questions that people explain by saying that "God must have started that ." or "It was God who made the first paramecium move", but the lack of explanation in no way proves God's existence, it only proves that there is a lot more for the human race to learn.

When exactly did the split take place anyway? By this, I mean the two opposing theories, the metaphysical/theological and the scientific. It's odd that once upon a time theology had the authority, then science gained the authority, and now it seems that science has once again returned to the metaphysical now that a wall, so to speak, has been met. Can they be merely two ways to explain something that our language doesn't have words for or that is not encompassed in the range of our given senses. Even science, with it's electron microscopes, ect is working way beyond the scope of our normal senses and we've learned to trust THAT technology on faith even though the general masses can't see, or in come cases, interpret that data. What's the difference in putting that same faith in religion?
