Today, we observe a paradox, a very serious contradiction between science and religion, and if it is not resolved, it can lead to the downfall of our civilization.

Science operates on its own, losing its morality and pushing people and civilization to the brink of the abyss, while religion operates on its own, gradually losing its essence, weakening, and losing people's attention, causing people to stop believing in God.

It might not seem like a big issue at first. In England, buses circulate with the message, «There is no God». Society is becoming atheistic. It may seem fine if people remain decent and responsible, maintain their families, and go to work. However, concepts like responsibility and discipline inevitably fall outside the realm of morality and duty, and the concept of morality stems from the priority of the soul, which, in turn, stems from the concept of love for God and caring for one's soul. Therefore, an atheistic society loses faith and love, and subsequently, morality.

Gradually, the concept of family, love for one's neighbor, and compassion begin to erode. People start lying, being hypocritical, desiring to rob and deceive; they become cruel, worship their instincts, and descend to the level of animals.

This happens imperceptibly. Externally, a person remains human, but internally, they start succumbing to their passions, gradually becoming their slaves. The Bible describes what happens to a society that loses faith and morality—it's the story of Sodom and Gomorrah.

Modern civilization, stubbornly ignoring the abyss it is heading towards, continues to lose faith and morality, and this is very dangerous. Why is this happening primarily with Western philosophy, Western science, and ultimately Western religion? Why is faith in God weakening? Because it is time for a certain leap, a certain change in the perception of the world. Science and religion must unite. Science should assist religion, and religion should assist science, and then science will become moral, and religion will become flexible and non-dogmatic.

The merger of science and religion is, in my opinion, the only path to the survival of modern civilization. The question that remains is how to unite science and religion? How to understand what religion talks about and how religious revelations can assist science? How to make science moral? I began contemplating these questions decades ago. I understood that science, including medicine, is in a serious crisis that could be fatal for our civilization.

Many conclusions that science has reached and that I heard about from my childhood in school turned out to be false. I saw and felt this, so I wanted to find out what the truth really is.

Modern science claims that our body is primary, and the spirit, consciousness, is secondary. Religion claims the opposite. Who is right? It has already been practically proven that our consciousness is connected to the body and depends on it, and we define consciousness as a product of the brain.

Thus, on one hand, a person's consciousness, their spirit, is a product of their physical body, but on the other hand, numerous cases have been documented where a person with a removed or damaged brain continued to think, communicate, and speak, and the physical absence of the brain did not hinder them.

Scientists do not mention these precedents because they are unable to comprehend and explain them. However, if this is indeed the case, it means that a person thinks not only with their brain.

Science has always asserted (originally, religion made this claim) that consciousness, reason, exist only in humans, that animals do not possess them, and plants certainly do not. But the facts say otherwise: plants can think. Science has already documented such cases, and scientists are beginning to openly talk about it. Animals can think, meaning they can analyze, plan for the future, and organize themselves. Take ants, for example: they are capable of doing things that humans haven't even thought of yet. So, what do animals, insects, and plants think about? Science cannot answer this question yet, but the answer already exists.
