  Re: Conscience  It would be helpful if you were to express what "religion" is and what "science" is. I think you mentioned something about "science" being the pursuit of "truth"? This isn't strictly true! Science cares not for "truth" as it's makn job is it relay the "meaning: of reality upon a causal basis. It is a practical discipline grounded in experimentation and measurement bolstered by the use of pure mathematics.  The closest "area" of science to religion in my view is psychology - this should be apparent enougn given that "psyche" adn "soul" have occasionally been used synonymously throughout history. The questions of subjective human existence is not really something science has much to do with directly.
