If science is so great why hasn't it solved all of humanitys problems ?

While mankind is in more ways than one killing itself, science isn't going to stop people from polluting the earth and its components. Science isn't going to bring back all those who have been killed in war or otherwise.
Bringing back the dead would be a terrible idea. That's not a problem. Science is the reason you know the earth is polluted in the first place and how much and why. Science performs tons of miracles, I'm sure polluting less is a very easy solve if necessary
 
Well, your remark assumes two things that are not true.
1. That all our problems are solved, or at least potentially so.
2. That science has either made some sort of claim that it will solve all our problems, or that it can reasonably be expected to.
Actually my remark assumes many things, not just two. Humanity doesn't have a problem, we all have different ideas of what the problem is, it's not one universal shared problem. Problems are created by you, they don't exist, people choose to label them as such

It depends. I look forward to the resurrection that God, not science, promises.

I am pretty sure you're right about that for the most part.

I don't think that will happen in the current state mankind is in. I do agree that scientists have helped .with things like vaccines and to be honest, I'm also pretty sure they can't figure out how to bring back a dead person. That's a pretty big question. How could they? But guess what? I believe God can do that. And no, I don't think for a half second that I'll be bored.

Once again bringing back the dead would not be good

Hence it has been said:
Science without Spirituality is blind
Spirituality without Science is lame


These two, Science and Spirituality, should work together to reach the true goal.

I'm so sick and tired of atheist secular scientism it's just another religion
I think that I understand what you meant here:
Religious Supremacy is an evil still there
Science Supremacy is the other side of the coin

If this is what you meant, then I fully agree.

The moment "believers in Science" belittle Spirituality they are not any better than when "believers in Spirituality, Religion or God" belittle Science.

Feeling you are Superior, means you think the other is inferior. These people never understood the danger of Hitler with his Aryan race Supremacy or others with their White Supremacy etc. And if they understand they truly are demonic and potential dangerous IMO.

What goal is that
All are free to fill that in for themselves

Drop Supremacy feeling is a good start

Personally, my goals are Love expressed by:
Truth, Righteousness, Non Violence, Peace

Love in Word is Truth
Love in Action is Righteousness
Love in Feeling is Non Violence
Love in Thought is Peace

Science and religion are both interesting things among many in this world and to live and let live is a good way to go.

Wonderful goals, I must say and commend you for. But! now as hard as we try to incorporate those magnificent goals to ourselves, we are going to fall short. Yet God understands and forgives, I believe, if we appeal to Him. On the other hand, because God's foremost attribute is love, He will settle all matters in a loving and caring way in the future.

If a god exists why hasn't it solved all humanities problems?
Because that is our "job"

I never asked my math professor to do my exam

I have seen this question asked on RF many times

So, I am curious: Did you ask others to do your homework? I suppose you didn't. If so, why you assume God should do your homework?

Thank you for encouraging me

Definitely. Daily challenge for me

Lucky for me He does

Till then, I just do the best I can

Nope. But I have stopped people from doing stupid things and causing harm.
I bet your teacher/professor would too.

And science keeps gaining knowledge as it advances into the future.
I am sure that scientists cannot/will not raise the dead. Meantime there are many scientists working for companies that are ruining the atmosphere, causing harm.
