Can Science Answer Everything?

The fact is - science does not have answers to everything, just yet and humans have been investing a ton of effort into getting science to answer everything in this world (that we know). This debate is not about what's already been answered and what's still to be answered; but rather the 'ability' of science to answer everything around us.

Do you think science can answer everything?

    What is science?
    It is just a body of organized knowledge. It is the scientist, who has to ask the question (of interest to him/her) and then go about organizing all available info and generating new info by research.
    "Science" cannot answer anything. A scientist is one essentially groping in the dark trying to chart a route to the destination, which may not be well defined.

    Sub-question: What do we do with the things that the science can't answer? Ignore them? Or start worshiping them? ๐Ÿ˜•

    Science is not everything, but everything has science! If you try to classify science, there would be lot of categories. Even evolution is a part of science. If God created the world, then that too was science - the science of creation known exactly only to God and now debated based on various theories by mankind! If you limit science to something that man has created or learned over the millennia of his existence on Earth, then you'd be limited to human version of science. The greatest scientific creation in the history of universe is human beings itself if you believe that whatever has happened is science. The 5 basic elements are the next best creation of science or rather the scientific divinity we call as God. The fact that it is believed that God is everywhere is itself a science that has been debated.

    Now can Science answer everything? - Humans are limited to human version of science. The fact that we don't use even 10% of our brains states how well we have limited our perspectives in science. Today the world looks all set - but is it really? What would have happened if early men thought the same and didn't research more! We've evolved with science steering the road. So can science answer everything - well it could if you used your brain to maximum capacity and explored more - there is more in science to be discovered!

    You hit the bull's eye. From the beginning this ignorance was exploited by manipulators, usually religious, for their own gain.
    I am lazing at Washington DC for the next two months. I saw an interesting book:'The Language of God' on the shelves of a book shop here written by Francis Colllins, a geneticist and current director of NIH, which seems to address the issue that you have raised.

    Here he is holding forth at the Veritas Forum. It is a two hour long programme.

    Quote:
    "The Language of God: Intellectual Reflections of a Christian Geneticist"
    February 4, 2008, at The University of California, Berkeley

    Presentation by Dr. Francis Collins, head of the Human Genome Project and director of the National Human Genome Research Institute. Dr. Collins presents a case for harmony between faith in science and faith in God. He also shares about his personal intellectual and spiritual journey from agnosticism, to atheism, and to Christianity.

    Followed by an interview conducted by Jasper Rine, Howard Hughes Professor and Professor of Genetics, Genomics and Development at UC Berkeley.

    Followed by audience Q&A.

    Science can't answer everything But worshipping any thing is also not a solution to all your issues

    Ever seen a battery or microphone manual Two things always surprise you one is ACT OF GOD and SUPERNATURAL INTERFERENCE both destroy your mic without any trace these two effects are yet to be understood

    Naming a problem as act of god itself shows that you are not willing to further scrutinise the issue.

    All things in this world are organised there is surely some solution which you need to look a little more to find

    Science Can't Answer All..Though We Try and Put a Ton Of efforts there would be a Next Question Instantly from others to You or crazily it may arise in your own mind. But We Should Not Worshiping Immediately the thing which we investigated and get the answer. Homo Sapiens Have the history of turning Stones which were said to be Impossible. There Would Be a Set Of People Constantly at all stages and generations who would be in the research of knowing the unknown. ๐Ÿ˜€ ๐Ÿ˜€
