If I create a precise road map of my home town, it will enable me drive from place to place without getting lost. However, no matter what the quality of the road-map, it will provide me with little assistance if I want to know whether the beauty of the town's landscape will give me lovely chills. I may be very proud of my road-map, but it would be inaccurate and full of hubris for me to suggest that this one map could tell me all that I might want to know about the area. Similarly, it would be silly of me to reject the map if my goal was to find the house at the corner of Oak Avenue and Main Street. Like the road-map, science helps people to identify patterns, and to predict outcomes in certain situations.
Science provides a sound way to view, understand, and even forecast many events.
It is one important framework for understanding the world. Like the chills that I may get looking out over a beautiful scene, spirituality helps to guide me when I want to know what lights my heart and motivates me to sing. It helps me to appreciate beauty, empathize with suffering, and to choose pathways that make me smile. It is another framework for understanding the world. Humility keeps me from clinging to one way of knowing or understanding, and leaves me open to the possibility that multiple frameworks may be appropriate for approaching different types of questions.
