Religious argument does not sufficient for science.Although they different, it does not mean that they have no ameeting point in human civilization. Science, to a certain extent, isable to make religious understanding more rational and openminded.So also religion, to a certain extent, is able to makescience more near to its purpose, as it determined before—to makehuman being survive and happy in the universe. Therefore, scienceand religion are complementary to one another.
