Abstract
In modern day, science and religion have been pivoted against each other, especially under a Western—or Christian—lens. However, Christianity is not the only religion that exists. This Theology Project focuses on a nonwestern perspective by centering around Hinduism and how science can contradict or coincide with the other while comparing the science and religion debate to Christianity. I, as the researcher, use articles, journals, and books, as well as my own personal knowledge in Hinduism and science, to disentangle the complexities within each magisteria.
