Many people today view science and religion as two radically different ways to understand the world, but religion and science strengthen each other’s belief because they are both concerned with what is true. They were not meant to live alone in isolation, divorced from each other so tear down the barricades that divide them because faith and reason are meant to live happily together. Reason does not destroy faith, but fulfills it so we can use our intelligence as a path to spiritual awareness and when our intellect can say no more, our instinctive spiritual view of life will take over. This provides us with a kind of intuitive perception of God as He is reflected in creation.

I feel science is seeking truth and is a valid path to the universal Truth that we all seek. Astrology is also valid would you classify it as science or metaphysics?

I've always loved discussing philosophical topics such as this. One great movie exploring the relation between science and religion (if any) is Contact. Personally, I lean towards towards astrology: when science unveils the meanings of religion, you will find astrology, a universal knowledge that preceded either one of these houses of beliefs/understanding.
