Which one of these explains our universe better; Religion or Science?
And Why?
Science - because it's true & doesn't rely on an invisible friend
This is a question that actually needs asking?
Science - knowledge based on observation, measurement, critical assessment of evidence, which can (and is) challenged when new evidence is discovered.
Religion - the musings of bronze-age goat herders who weren't even aware the earth orbited the sun, or that penguins existed.
