Science simply mostly ignores religion and mythology, which IMHO in fact superseeds much of the modern cosmology if correctly interpreted.

A car mechanic completely ignores my childhood history and its effects upon my personality as well, because psychology has nothing to do with car mechanics. This does not mean the field of automotive repair assumes humans are nothing but car parts, like pistons and valves. Only a grease monkey who doesn't get outside much might see reality through such a narrow lens like that.

Same thing with science. It does not, nor should it consider religious views of the natural world as part of doing science. It's not a slight against religion. It's simply doing science. What you are actually complaining about is taking science and its way of looking at the natural world as part of its job, and seeing that that alone is the only way to look at the totality of life.

That's not science. That's a philosophy of Scientism that sees sciences as the only way to look at the world, like that grease monkey who has no life sees all humans as pistons and valves. Scientism is defined as "excessive belief in the power of scientific knowledge and techniques."

You are incorrectly broadbrushing all of science with that same colorized adoption of science as the new authority for absolute truth and knowledge in all things human. That's what people who lost faith in religion are trying to make science do in order to replace it in that role of absolute truth for themselves. That's only an issue of faith.

By ignoring this, modern cosmological science has itself become the "fairy tale", they themself think of mythology and religion.

Not at all. In fact, those like myself are able to look at what science reliably shows us about the natural world, and from there take this knowledge of reality and see it through the lens of a spiritual view of reality and understand the whole thing as awe inspiring.

Science rightly doesn't teach about faith, but faith can most certainly draw inspiration from what science does teach! If faith can't do that, the problem isn't science, but the problem is with the quality of one's faith.

Deal with your own bogeymen, and I´ll deal with mine - if I can find one.

You have created a bogeyman out of science. As I said, the problem isn't science, but a faith that cannot adapt itself to new knowledge.

It's pointing a finger at science, to avoid looking at the real issue which is a faith that cannot adapt to new ways of understanding. So people go hopping off from one religion to another, including the faith of Scientism, in the hopes of finding something to replace what was lost.

The issue isn't religion. The issue isn't science. The issue isn't theism. The issue isn't atheism. It's not about who's got the real Answer. It's about the heart's ability to find rest in the face of Uncertainty. That's the role of faith.
