Science and religion

An eminent scientist was quoted saying that where science ceases to explain philosophy starts. It is true to a large extent. The concept of the soul of the human body has recently been acknowledged by scientists all over the world. This concept has been explained in our scriptures ages ago. What i am trying to express here is that one should not be rigid in ones attitude thereby rubbishing what all others have to say. The researchers in united states have patented the word OM as to being a latest invention of theirs a word which when transmitted in the universe comes back with a tremendous amount of " positive energy". The word OM has been used in our Vedas for centuries is the first word every kid learns. This is one of the examples which proves that behind every line of philosophy there is a reason. Mind u I am using the word philosophy not superstition. The nonsense about cats being a sign of ill luck and not leaving the house immediately after you sneeze and the concept of untouchables has been blindly followed for centuries because no one has been strong enough to question them and put a stop to them. We all think it to be much more convenient to say "oh i don’t believe in all this " and forget it their. Science fails to explain a very basic question that must have asked in every persons mind at one time or the other that we always refer to as too philosophical and avoid as to why .Why is it that that the earth is unlike other planets in the solar system. yes because we have the right distance from the sun and the right atmospheric conditions so life evolved . then why is it that the human beings were born after the Jurassic period science says atmospheric conditions were not suitable and now they are .What they do not want to acknowledge is that we were meant to be born during this period rule during this period as they did during the Cretous and the Jurassic era. We do not want to acknowledge the simple fact that their are things beyond our control that we cannot change or even try to change. That is very apparent from the statement people issue when they say that if things carry on as they are one day the earth will be destroyed. That is crap and all it is doing is increasing their own sense of importance. We cannot destroy the earth howsoever we may try all we can do is destroy our self destroy the human race and maybe some other forms of life. Even it the worst case of celestial collision some protozoa bacteria will survive and breed ages later and another race will evolve and life will start again.
