I ran across this tonight in a Fark thread. And I think it may encapsulate the issues associated with religion and the method of science. One is concerned with Why, while the other is concerned with How. Two totally different sets of questions and answers, and are thus in different realms. Interested in other views on the topic.

And in a totally different thread, I was thinking--now that my life (and career) is pretty much set, is there another career that I wish I had chosen? (Or that I could have chosen, based on my current level of experience or views.) And I think I could have been a good vet. I like animals; I try not to eat them or wear them; pretty good at trouble shooting, and I have a healthy respect for all the systems within the body... I think I could have been a good vet. Wondering what others think... (about themselves). (Or not. Whatever.) (NO--Being Bono's personal assistant isn't on "the list".)
