Answering How, Why and Where?

Connecting Religion and Science

Some say that science cannot tell us why things exist and how we should live, that there is no evidence in the physical world of science to answer these questions. But the science of sociobiology has answered these questions, and before sociobiology Darwin answered these questions, although perhaps less precisely than sociobiology. The problem is that people did not accept the answers of Darwin and sociobiology to these questions.

How?

We can say that sociobiology tells us how to live, and that we are supposed to enhance our successful survival and reproduction, and that the paths to this goal can vary with the given environment and with different people.

Why?

As to why things exist, we are here dealing more in “probability based on evidence.” Here we can see the patterns of an instinctive moral law within, and patterns in evolution, and patterns in the universe. The strong probability is that life is evolving from the simple to the complex, from lower to higher consciousness, with backwards going and sideways going along the way.

Where?

We are evolving to Godhood, the most complex consciousness in the Kosmos, and our natural instincts contain a moral law within which seeks Godhood in evolution through successful survival and reproduction. The Evolutionary Christian Church says, furthermore, that these probabilities of evidence will eventually turn into scientific physical evidence, although the word “physical” may have to be expanded or deepened to include something like “spiritual atoms.”

But faith does appear to remain above reason at this time.
