Is there a religion that searches for scientific knowledge? hard to imagine one that doesn't eventually embrace science.... except for some cult's like the Flat Earth Society . Religion in one sense is a science though , the ---> Science of Spirit . Einstein felt Buddhism was the best suited to the needs of science in the 21rst century , more suited to solving practical earthly matters while one is alive , and less concerned with some imaginary afterlife which if does exist must be the direct result of living virtuously and with increased awareness while living in the present. What do you view as the necessity of religion? Awareness (of Self) Exploration of the self , discovery of self , growth of Self , meditation on self , focus on self , contemplation of self , the beauty of self , freedom of self , art of self , poetry of self , expansion of self , love of self , detachment from self , harmony of self , compassion of self perfection of self , maturing of self , enlightenment of self , control of self , unfolding of self , unity of self, preservation of self , experience of self, science of self , and *knowing oneself by thyself* All this done as peacefully & unselfishly as possible...such Blasphemy I know , but what else works ? (group hugs in the after life come later ) ;-)
