Should I believe in Buddhism or science?

Everyone has faith, but don’t be superstitious.

The so-called superstition is belief without reason and belief without understanding the truth. This is superstition.

First. If you study religion seriously and practice according to the law to verify what the Buddha said, you are not superstitious. Those who only know how to kowtow to the Buddha are superstitious. For example, why should we kowtow to the Buddha? In fact, kowtow is an ancient etiquette. It was a very common etiquette among the ancients. For example, in ancient times, sons kowtow to their parents, and students kowtow to their teachers. This is very common, just like bowing now. But now this etiquette has not been well inherited, so it is not common anymore. However, Buddhism has preserved this etiquette and still uses it today. In fact, it is normal for people who study Buddhism to regard Buddha as their teacher and kowtow to the Buddha’s image as a sign of respect to their teacher. Students in ancient times also kowtow to the statue of Confucius. This is the way of teaching and virtue. Now that you know the meaning of kowtow, if you kowtow again, it’s not superstitious, right? You don’t even need to kowtow, you can put your palms together. The most important thing is the true respect in your heart. Understand this truth, whether you kowtow or not kowtow is not superstitious, right? Many rituals in Buddhism are very particular, so I won’t go into details about them. For another example, the Buddha said thousands of years ago that the moon was still in the sky when it was dark at night (not that the moon was not in the sky at this time). The Buddha called the moon at this time a black moon. It has been known for thousands of years, and we have only known this fact for a few hundred years. There are still many things like this, so I won’t go into more details. If you are interested, you can research it yourself. I hope you can understand.

Second. Superstition about science is also very common. To give you the simplest example, if you have a cold, you read the instructions for "gankang" (this is science) and know that it can cure your cold, but you take it for a week and it doesn't get better, so you change it. The cold was cured by eating "white plus black". I would like to ask, is your belief in cold health a superstitious belief in science? Because he said he could cure your disease, but he didn't cure your disease. To give another example, there is an example in classic mechanics in physics. At first, everyone believed that force is what maintains the motion of objects. Later, Newton told everyone that force is what changes the state of motion of objects. Now everyone believes in Newton. If a scientist in the future puts forward another theory to deny the current Newton, will we also be laughed at by people in the future? So science is a theory that grows up through constant denial and may be applicable to a certain stage, what do you think?
