I'd say theres a severe difference in having faith in science or having faith in God. Science is based on the laws of observation and testing and such. Imo, you should be consistent with your beliefs. If you believe in science, in turn you should'nt believe with reason to believe, just as you've chose not to believe in God. You cannot choose to believe in science unless scientific data tells you otherwise. And it hasn't, and I have the information to back it up if you'd like to see it.

Religion doesn't grow with the times, because in theory, it shouldn't change. The biblical message doesn't evolve. Its there, clear as crystal. A few cultural things have changed, and some in the Old Testament was just the law of Israel, but theres people out there who study that stuff, and interpret it for us. Not all of us have the time, means, or will power to give the Bible an in-depth look. You have to be educated to do such things, especially since it was written in Hebrew originally. So what I'm getting at, a few things may have changed, but only because we have increased our knowledge in what was originally intended for us follow. Or so we think.
