Humanity (yet) still trying to reconcile reason and faith. But science will be able to one day that it was God who created the universe and determined the course of evolution?
For many centuries, God was responsible for the success of the man on the planet. Until science has entered the fray and began to show that this was not necessarily true. The scientific study of the geological layers that formed the earth has proved that our planet was millions of years and not 5000 according to the calculations of St. Augustine. In the 1860s, the theory of natural selection and evolution of species by Charles Darwin, has launched the first doubts about the consistent influence on the divine order of life on earth. In the twentieth century, thinkers such as Nietzsche, Marx, Freud, Satre and others came to bet yet on "Death of God" and the beginning of an "age of reason." But that has not yet materialized. Rather, what is observed today is a revaluation of faith, look to Brazil, where there is a proliferation of religions and sects. Throughout history, man's relationship with the sacred has been an extremely persistent trait, and this continues.
No theory, according to the American paleontologist Stephen Jay Gould, can be seen as a threat to religious beliefs, because these two great tools of human understanding work in a complementary and not opposite: science to explain natural phenomena and religion explain the ethical values and the search for spiritual meaning to life. But in recent decades, what has been perceived is an intensification of the differences between those who believe that the complexity of life can only be explained by a higher intelligence and those who argue that the inclination to believe in God is just a biological trait our faith, or are programmed to have faith.
The biblical creationism, according to which we on earth just because we left the drawing board (or imagination) to let us play God "in his image and likeness." Theories such as this, assume that humans are the result of a perfect design, which is not true. There is consensus among experts that thousands of human design, although effective, is far from unassailable biologically imagine even the psychological.
Whenever there is any problem, using a protective father, in which the figure of God fits perfectly. So the human dilemma is that we evolved genetically to believe in God, not to believe in biology. Science has yet to explain whether God created our brains with this ability or whether it was the evolution that made the brain to create the portal to God.
When an atheist go to the other side of life, after his death, and confront the divine being, he will still have the opportunity to recognize their mistake of not believing, but if a faithful and devout, where abdicated part of live your life to this belief, go to the other side of life, and see that nothing that he believed there really was a situation comedy.
