Are science and religion in accord or are they diametrically
opposed to each other? The common perspectives-for or against
religion-are based on the same question, "Do religion and science
fit together or not?" These arguments are usually stuck within a
preconceived notion of realism which assumes that there is a 'true
reality' that is independent of us and is that which we discover.
However, this context confuses our understanding of both science
and religion. The core concern is not the relation between science
and religion, it is realism in science and religion. Wittgenstein's
philosophy and developments in quantum theory can help us to untie
the knots in our preconceived realism and, as Wittgenstein would
say, show the fly out of the bottle. This point of view changes the
discussion from science and religion competing for the discovery of
the 'true reality' external to us (realism), and from claiming that
reality is simply whatever we pragmatically think it is
(nonrealism), to realizing the nature and interdependence of
reality, language, and information in science and religion.
