Science developed from
• the observation of regularity in
the natural world:
a) The return of spring after
winter,
b) the setting of the sun at a
day's end,
c) the falling of the ebb tide
after high water.
• Regularity suggests that
nature is not all chaos but
follows rules.
• Science has been a human activity
well before the development of the
first civilizations.
• The oldest civilizations are believed
to have emerged some time before
3000 BC; but excavations
from Catal Hüyük in Anatolia have
shown that the people in today's
Turkey had developed advanced
skills in measurement and accurate
mapping as early as 6200 BC.
Linking Science & Religion
• In early societies scientific study was
undertaken by priests and monks,
and scientific knowledge was taught
in temples and monasteries.
• As civilizations developed, the link
between science and religion
weakened and science became the
domain of philosophy.
• A clear distinction between science
and religion did not develop until well
into the 18th century.
Religion
• Religion, like science, attempts to
establish a system of knowledge about
nature.
• All religions are based on the belief that
gods act in an orderly fashion and make
sure that nature follows rules.
• The human mind is opposed to chaos; it
can only make sense of an ordered world
and finds order to meet its needs, even
where order may not exist.
