We are missing a lot by treating them like oil and water. World will be better place if we rethink, IMHO. I agree with what Einstein said.
"Religion without science is blind.
Science without religion is lame."

I like spirituality even though I'm a hardcore atheist myself in the way that it can satisfied my more primative nature. Like for instence, I can imagine that I have a person/spirit watching over me who I can seek comfort from (a positive side) - even though I know there isn't one. This is just my version of spirituality, ofc, and I am sure there's many other versions that can co-exit with science. I guess you could also describe it as 'conciencious manipulation of self'. Hehe.
I guess I wouldn't mind if Mobileread ceated an offtopic discussion board for more serious discussions about the world and life in general.
Edit: But it might also make Mobileread less of a family forum in turn. Mobileread is quite an innocent place, so to say, like it is now.
