Philosophy, Science & Religion: Are they connected to each other?


Powered by FeedBurner

These past few days, I was reading many books and references all over the internet about philosophy, science and religion. Some people knocked my head with all these terms few years ago, since then I love to dig in this scheme. Seems interesting once science and philosophy can not be go along together, in any religions; the philosophy can go along. Which part then in all those three musketeers' have the missing points of views ? Once, I realize those 3 has to go along together in the name of universe's wisdom.

Then, " what is philosophy ? " ; " What is science ? "; and then "  What is religion ? ".

Philosophy is a form systematically science which formulating questions related to knowledge of science, causal relationship, thoughts/minds, language and religion.

Science is a systematic efforts by minds that build and organize the knowledge in the scheme of testimonial explanation and predictable all about universe that can be logically and rationally acceptable for human kinds.

Religion is a series collection of cultural system, belief, world views which establishes symbols in earth explicit or implicit relate to humanity and has value as spirituality in moral attitude values and most put the religion as a limitation for private area which having views bigger at first in public aspects.


The Random Thoughts of  My Views in Progress of Science, Philosophy and Religion

Science is now advancing rapidly, and the philosophy seems like just stay calm in its place is like there is no progress ( don't you think so ? ). And what we can notice lately that some particular science is less important for some people, because the questions of science  had have been answered and corrected time to time specially refer to philosophy in 17th, 18th and 19th century. It were answered one by one and seems as like  '' classic-paths " for those 3 centuries philosophers. 
Meanwhile, the questions of philosophy in the 20th century schemes still remains actual for human being and I think even all time centuries. Nothing wrong, nothing good: all have same importance. 
And what about religion? The development of religion has been taking variety and diversity in cultural of a nation cultures background which having deep intellectual perception parameter in each person or community. That's why I said before religion is a kind of private sector due to the way  of views in narrowing from public aspects to private area.

The philosophy itself arguably similar to a world collection museums which have scientific inventions, the minds and thoughts of the world philosophers, and the opinions of scientist experts and philosophers about the universe's life mistery.
Then, that's the reason behind why philosophy is divided into 3 big philosophy traditions.

  • Indian Philosophy
  • Chinese Philosophy
  • Western Philosophy
And we knew that east philosophy and west philosophy having big huge differences. We can see that in Indian & Chinese ( global view-red; because there are many from east philosophy ) is refer to belief, tradition, religion, culture which are reading the system by symbolization & literature where exist in the holy books of religion, literature, cultures genres to next genres, which talking a lot about soul and the real action of human beings. Which then, west thought that it couldn't be just only by literature, symbols etc once the belief system has to be acceptable in scheme of rationally and logically systematic in human's mind. The facts has to be in  knowledge of science empirically, such as maths, metaphysics etc; which has meaning having a real object in scheme of science.

In western philosophy there were 3 golden eras :
  • Cosmocentric in Greece era
  • Theocentric  in mid century era
  • Anthropocentric & contemporary  in modern era 
Very clear mentioned above that  some centuries already ' classic ' and the 20th century is becoming critical issues, and then now and in future as the time being, the 20th century philosopher would have the answers by inventions, empirical science or what and would proof which one among the 20th century philosopher would remain as the issue that their issues scheme: is it so important for human mankind and universe? 

In next post, I would share to you the modern and contemporary philosophy and what essentials substance minds and thoughts which has been being ' critical issues ' until nowadays specially about the father of philosophy: Descartes. ( I really dislike long article, it drive mad too in writing it.. LOL ) and maybe would look like flash back history and then up-front and the red-line scheme to each philosophers; this will be my type of article in this philosophy matters.
