1) Why is there a conflict (for some) between science and religion?
I understand from the book that the conflict (for some) raised the notion that science considers the body as pure matter and in the contrary religion consider the body as encompassing our spirit or soul. My opinion is that there is a spirit or soul in our body, which I consider it to be our own inner self by cognition as explain in psychology or our brain, by which our body or matter has been created by god our procreator. One may ask were does procreation begun or in simple words what was first the the soul or the matter?. It is my believe that matter was created and we are matter that creates our soul within us or in simple words the creation of dust to solids to brain to soul. In conclusion, we are still searching (last time I read in Mars) for the origins of our creation, and through out times it has been a long deep search dilemma within our own backyard and as simple as to looking to the realm high above our heads from within our soul and spirit.
2) Why was Socrates sentenced to death?
Melitus sentenced Socrates to death for two accusations:
First: because “he did not believe in the gods recognized by the state.”
Second: because “he had corrupted the Athenians youth by his teaching.”
Socrates would expressed his beliefs and he was very talkative about them. He believed in the immortality of the soul. It is implicit that he taught and passed on his believes to the young. For example in one of the conversations before his dead, Socrates advised Euthyphro about the prosecution of his father. Socrates was very resilient on his beliefs and would rather die to prove his beliefs than to succumb to what he considered the wrong beliefs of his State. Until the last day of his death, he expressed the predictions that his prosecutor will not stop to oppress the young, but that he will eventually continue to oppress the elderly and that he will prosecute whomever does not abide by his beliefs.
