Appreciating the Physical Reality ~ Human Mindscape divide

Yeah there’s some truth in that, but it’s a comedian view.
I’ll bet there have been comparative studies made of religions, and I’ll bet by and large, when you get down to the basic fundamental, there would be more similarities found between religions, then substantive differences.

Because basically, any reinvented religions will be born out of pretty much the same evolutionary backstory, and the same self-serving human brain with the same suite of reinforcing thoughts.

How about something more to the point?

Science seeks to objectively learn about our physical world, but we should still recognize all our understanding is embedded within and constrained by our mindscape.

Religion is all about the human mindscape itself, with its wonderful struggles, fears, spiritual undercurrents, needs and stories we create to give our live’s meaning and make it worth living, or at least bearable.

The point is:

Religion deals with the inside of our minds, hearts and souls, Science does its best to objectively understand the physical world beyond all that, doing its best to factor ego out of the deliberations.
