SCIENCE AND RELIGION

Baha'u'llah teaches that all true knowledge comes from God. Therefore, science and religion represent only different avenues to the same truth, and apparent differences between the two are merely illusions. If science and religion disagree on a specific issue, then one or the other must be in error. When traditional religious teachings contradict well-established science, the religious teachings may be in error because they have become influenced by man's interpretations of God's word. When a true Manifestation of God teaches ideas which are contrary to popular science, it is the science which is in error.
