SCIENCE VS RELIGION Scott performing at Elysian Park
Over the centuries
There's been a great rivalry
Between Science and Religion 

S-C . . . I-E . . . N-C-E
FIGHT!
R-E . . . L-I-G . . . I-O-N
FIGHT!

Religion was the champion
And it could do no wrong
Yahweh, Buddha, Jesus
Their offense was so strong
Scientists shook their fists
Blinded by their senses
Religion's heavy hitters
Were swingin' for the fences

Science versus Religion 

Copernicus convinced us
We go around the sun
Galileo's curveball
Could strike out every nun
Darwin's evolution
Kicked 'em in the rear 
Religion called a time out
To shout The End is Near! 

Science versus Religion 

The fans were pissed that scientists
Were fumbling the big questions
The universe, why life exists
Wide open to suggestions
Religion took a leap of faith
And dove over that line
The whistle blew, the score was tied
Now we're in overtime 

S-C . . . I-E . . . N-C-E
FIGHT!
R-E . . . L-I-G . . . I-O-N
FIGHT! 

Science is empirical
They wear those nerdy glassses
Religion goes for miracles
And Hail Mary passes 
Science has the gadgets
And complicated slang 
But they could never answer
What created the big bang
Big bang!
