Comment Re:U.S. is established on religion, so (Score 2, Insightful) 900

Science tends to look at the world in terms of numbers, technology and confirmed facts. Religion tends to tell the world has been made by some imaginary person in the sky, tells you to pray towards said imaginary person and completely disregards science in favor of what someone wrote on paper 1500-2000 years ago.

Religion and science are not the diametrically opposed forces that self-serving religious leaders and over-zealous atheists make them out to be.
