contact between science and religion

I'm surprised that I've seen so many movies, but I haven't seen such a good movie for a long time. In addition to the shocking experience of watching the movie, I have brought more thinking.
As a science student, my attitude towards religion is actually different from that at the beginning. Like Ellie, we only believe in tangible evidence, just like the data we get in our experiments, the nature of science and engineering is that no conclusion can be easily drawn without data support; then when Joss asks Ellie to prove how much she loves When her father was, she was silent. I was also silent. It is true that there are still many things in this world that have no real evidence to prove, but they have always existed, and we cannot deny the authenticity of their existence because there is no evidence.
Science and religion may never be opposites. Neither science nor religion can prove the existence of God. On the contrary, science and religion are both seeking a truth, a truth that is tens of thousands of times greater than our own, but Science seeks answers from a material and natural level, while religion seeks answers from a spiritual level.
Perhaps as Ellie said in the final hearing: "It has changed my life, brought me rich harvests, my cosmology has completely changed, and I know that as a part of the universe, I am not alone. , I am eager to share, and I hope the world can understand that in the
face of this vast universe, we can only have awe, humility, and hope, and I will turn this desire to share into an eternal desire in my heart. Only with reverence and humility can the truth come into contact with the answer to the truth. This film changed my view of religion. I thought that films that can bring people real thinking and even change world outlook and values ​​are the real classics. This film is undoubtedly such a treasure for me personally.

    The mood is complicated, and the monotheistic thinking is so stupid that I have to accept that it is a work that is exported from the monotheistic culture. Of course, it will be so helpless, and the starry sky is so beautiful and the lonely explorer is so charming and pure joy. The part of Ellie looking for alien sounds in the desert alone was the state of life I was looking forward to most, and when Ellie said “Should send a poet, language can’t describe, this is so beautiful” when I saw the nebula, I finally cried.

    2.5 Eliminate ambiguity, and then pretend to be very open: If you don't believe in the God that everyone believes in, then create another one yourself.
