The only reason there is a religion (any), is because people back when they were invented couldn't come up with a better way to explain our existence. They didn't have science, they couldn't explain anything, they couldn't prove anything.

In today's age, with numerous ways to prove all kinds of things, I don't see how the simple answer of 'something just made everything, for the fun of it', is in any way the most likely way to explain our existence. Let alone having to explain how that 'something' came into existence and gained self-concience itself in the first place. That said, I also don't believe mankind today has all the answers figured out, and we probably never will. For now, option 2 is by far the most likely, with a hint of option 3.


the science was invented in 4th century BCE after Aristotle, long before christianity.

You know what I meant. Science in ancient times was purely based on observation with the human eye and logic and extremely primitive compared to the studies we know today.

the science in ancient world was science it was build upon experiments and deductive reasoning, they invented scientific methods, whether it was primitive or not is not important.

 

it has great tradition in natural philosophy and then syntehesis of greek natural philosophy and babylonian long history of observation created science.
