Science is the name for transformation brought in the psychology of substances
and religion is the name for the knowledge which transforms the psychology of
human beings. Science can provide material comforts to a human being, but
for mental well-being, one has to change his psychology. Hence, striking a fine
balance between the two is the only way to lead a human being and the world
onto the path of progress.

Quotations
Religion
The three most important things for a human being and his life are time, energy
and money. Religious rites rampantly exploit all three of them.
-Deep Trivedi
Far better it is for you to say: I am a sinner, than to say: I have no need of religion. The empty can be filled, but the self-intoxicated have no room for God.
-Fulton J. Sheen

-Richard Dawkins
"The God Delusion"
Religious gurus are managing their businesses by misleading the world, but
it is a smaller crime. Their greater crime is; not only are they suppressing the
qualities and philosophies of great people, but are also running their businesses
by linking them to useless miracles.
