  I thought that the evidence suggested otherwise; science is very 
  successful but it won't replace religion as it doesn't provide a 
  value system; science is practiced by humans who use intuition,  
  have inspirations and dreams, express love, have religious beliefs, 
  etc., in addition to using reason; and the quality of one's science 
  is not affected by one's religious beliefs. I recall that Einstein 
  said something like "religion without science is blind, science
  without religion is lame".
