Christians and Jews have advanced science for many hundreds of years. Only recently have atheists started brainwashing the gullible, claiming that there is some sort of disconnect between people of spiritual faith and science.
According to U.N. statistics, in the last three centuries, among 300 outstanding scientists in the world, 242 believe in God.
Over 86% of scientists surveyed found no inherent contradiction between science and religion.
