I believe in Science over religion, but I suppose it depends if your a religious kinda guy (or girl) or not. Personally I think the theory of God creating the world is a heap of crap, and I cant think how anyone could believe it, and I can much more easily believe the science theory. Although we better not get into religious debate, thats a no no.

well I believe in both, and it seems the answers
'Science' and 'Both' are neck and neck at 47%
second place is 'None at all' at 5%
third place is 'Religion' at 0%
This is the result after only one day
It seems that Science is more believed in these days.

I am also more in belief of science. I find this a tough question to answer for some reason. Something in the back of my mind tells me there is more to it then science but still waiting for the proof.

I chose 'none' essentially because they cannot capture what I believe in. I tend to be somewhat nihlistic towards belief systems in general, forever coming back to question and doubt anything which purports to be "truth".

Religious wise, I have a strong affinity with Buddhism and Taoism on the nature of suffering but wouldn't call myself a 'believer' or overly religious person.

My lifestyle is so wrapt up in technology that the influence of science is often difficult to see through. Perhaps unconsciously I have a naive reliance in its epistemology.

It seems like science, at the moment in this poll, is the main belief here.

I believe I've seen science in action, and people going to church. I don't believe in either any more than I would in the mailman (he comes during the day to fill your mailbox with bills and ads, or so they say...)
I believe they're both there because I can't quite manage to dismiss the world as a chemotropical illusion and still have fun [img]smile.gif[/img]

Although, I voted science [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Science is a very complicated version of the word "Common-sense".

I chose both. But when it comes to the gritty part, I'd have to say Religion.

I think there is such thing as religion, because I don't think human life could of survived with just science, the concept of religion was probably created so that human beings have something to believe in and look forward to.
