What is science? Science is the concerted human effort to understand‚ or to understand better‚ the history of the natural world and how the natural world works‚ with observable physical evidence as the basis of that understanding1. It is done through observation of natural phenomena‚ and/or through experimentation that tries to simulate natural processes under controlled conditions. (There are‚ of course‚ more definitions of science.) Consider some examples. An ecologist observing

Ukraine is rich in natural resources: coal‚ iron ore‚ manganese‚ nickel and uranium‚ and others. The reserves of sulfur are the largest in the world‚ the reserves of mercury ore are the second largest. Also more than 5% of world reserves of iron ore are concentrated in Ukraine. There are oil and gas deposits but their reserves are not significant (the reserves of these fossil fuels were partly depleted during the Soviet period). Coal is the main fossil fuel of Ukraine.

However‚ even though randomness plays a part in the process of evolution through genetic mutations‚ it does not necessarily stipulate that species evolve without cause. Genetic variation occurs randomly and is determined by the fitness and success of a species. It is directly related to its inherited traits with the context of its local environment. The

the conflict today between Science and Religion? As far back in time as can be remembered‚ there has always been some form of religion governing the thoughts of mankind. Different cultures found different deities to explain what they could not‚ the natural phenomenas all around them. These "gods of the gaps" were essential to allow the ancient people to give explanations for what they did not know‚ saying simply that "God did it". However‚ as time went on and science emerged with its theories and
