(This introduction article is always the first article, but the following articles are in order of newest to oldest).
Welcome to Sciligion... the place where science meets religion... and gets along perfectly! The field of Sciligion has five major subcategories: Bioligion, Astronoligion, Geoligion, Psycholigion, and Loonyligion.
What is Bioligion? It is what you get when you combine the truths of Biology with Religion.
What is Astronoligion? It is what you get when you combine the truths of Astronomy with Religion.
What is Geoligion? It is what you get when you combine the truths of Geology with Religion.
What is Psycholigion? It is what you get when you combine the truths of Psychology with Religion.
What is Loonyligion? It is what you get when you ignore the truths of obvious science and continue to maintain stupid, superstitious thoughts. An example of this is when certain believers, when first confronted with the fossil evidence for dinosaurs, claimed that the bones were placed there by Satan to deceive us.
What's that? You have never heard of these various academic fields of study? I think that is because I just defined them. (Click here to learn about the history of Sciligion and the subcategories.) Join us as we explore these new fields of study. We are on the fore-front of both of the Science and Religion memes (click here to learn what a meme is).
Note:
Everyone knows what science is, but what is religion? Is it Christianity, Islam, Judaism, etc.? It is all of these, although my exploration will start and focus primarily with the religion of Evangelical Christianity, as in my view it is the most robust religion on earth (as well as the most well known, due to worldwide Christian TV networks). For example, if you go to a debate in the USA regarding science and religion, isn't the most likely debater, for the religious side, an Evangelical Christian? (Maybe this wouldn't be true for a Muslim country like Saudia Arabia (or an Atheist nation like China), but then again, they generally don't have these kinds of open and frank debates.)
Keep posted, as I update this entry with new "ligions"... I have more in mind, as well as developing the existing ones so far listed.
