How did life begin? With an act of God or a mixing of Chemicals?
The Big Questions
Almost everyone ponders questions like these at one time or another.
But where do you go for answers?
Science and religion look like obvious choices except that according to over 50% of teenagers science and religion don't agree.
What's more 86% of teenagers feel there's a clash on at least one topic covered by the two fields.
... BUT
There are some scientists who believe that science and religion are in perfect harmony. So what do they believe that's different and what do they say about those apparent contradictions?
This web site is a chance to find out. It has opinions from top experts from different faiths and from nonbelievers as well. So dive in, put their arguments to the test and see what you decide.
We are building this web site over the year for launch in Sep 2010.
