Religion and science are definitely not complementary. They are oppositional and reactionary. Science represents factual thinking based on constantly questioning what we know; religion is unquestioning belief in a story told to you as a child.

Except creationism is a story from a 2000 year old book, and evolution is a complex and ever-developing science and fact-based theory. They are not equal and should never be considered as such. In the UK we too learn about creationism; but we learn about it in our religious studies lessons, not in science lessons. The overwhelming reaction to hearing such a ridiculous theory is usually hysterical laughter. I honestly feel sorry for American children who have to learn this stuff at school and have it compared on equal footing to evolution.

Why don't you follow your own advice then and "actually think instead of spouting rote responses". To me, your belief in god is entirely based on faith rather than evidence and everything you know about "god" is a rote reproduction of what your parents or pastor probably taught you as a child. To become an adult and still hold the same beliefs you had as a child without questioning them is like an adult still believing in santa. What you are really saying when you say "everything points to god" is that you haven't even considered the vast, factual evidence that opposes that view and indicates instead simply a cosmic accident leading to the eventual evolution of humans and all other living things. To many scientists you will instantly lose their respect if you express the views you have expressed above. Not just that but it will induce a degree of anger due to your sheer unwillingness to think critically for yourself. These are not the traits of an inventive human.

Plus it was more about politics than religion.

that's what happens when a few bad apples invade a religion, but I would argue that it wasn't the religion itself but the people who were responsible for the things you brought up. Just like osama bin laden, or the early jews who thought circumcision was a good idea.

I'm pretty sure that even martial artists themselves admit that most of their skills do not apply to a real life fight. They do not even apply between disciplines. So even if she is a brilliant martial artist I would bet my money on her being overpowered in real life.
