"La science doit détruire la religion."

Sam Harris

Simplified Meaning:

The quote suggests that science and religion cannot coexist peacefully because their beliefs and approaches often clash. Science relies on evidence and experiments to understand the world, while religion is based on faith and spiritual teachings. For example, science explains the process of evolution, but many religious beliefs say that a creator made humans and animals. When people try to mix these two views, it can create confusion and conflict. The quote implies that for people to fully embrace scientific thinking, they might have to let go of religious beliefs. To apply this idea, someone might focus more on learning and understanding facts about the natural world and be open to changing their views based on new scientific discoveries, rather than holding onto traditional beliefs that don’t have scientific support.
