Quiz about basic knowledge of Christianity

Science answers the "why" and "how" question. Religion answers the question "why".

True religion, and that is Orthodoxy, is based on Divine Revelation and the graceful Divine assistance. As the Lord, being the Truth, never makes mistakes and does not lie, so the knowledge taught by Him to man is fully consistent with the truth.

Scientific knowledge can contradict religious knowledge when it is false (scientists themselves admit the possibility of scientific errors) or when we are talking about false religion.

In some cases, the discrepancy between scientific knowledge and religious knowledge is not due to a fundamental contradiction between science and religion, but to the limited scientific data, that are available for scientists. In addition, religious knowledge provides answers to those questions that exceed the capabilities of natural sciences (the question of God's creation of the world from nothing, the Kingdom of Heaven, the afterlife of the dead, etc.).

Despite the different tasks and approaches of science and faith, theology often resorts to scientific knowledge, for example, for missionary or apologetic purposes.
