Sacred Science vs. Secular Science: Carut Marut Hubungan Agama dan Sains

Samsul Hidayat

Abstract


Tulisan ini berupaya mengetahui pergumulan yang terjadi antara Agama dan Sains. Hipotesis yang diajukan adalah: Hubungan antara Agama dan Sains mengalami ketegangan dan variasi didalamnya. Ketegangan yang terjadi antara Sains dan Agama disebabkan karena perbedaan perspektif yang digunakan untuk memahami realitas sebagai sumber pengetahuan manusia. Kalau sains mendekati persoalan eksistensi melalui observasi dan eksperimen, sedangkan agama membangun landasan epistemologinya berdasarkan wahyu. Pada abad 19 dan sebagian besar abad 20, gagasan yang dominan adalah sains dianggap mampu memecahkan seluruh persoalan manusia, namun faktanya sains juga telah melahirkan senjata-senjata pemusnah massal dan polusi lingkungan, termasuk merusak keseimbangan aspek spiritual dan material dalam kehidupan manusia. Belakangan muncul para ilmuwan teolog dari beberapa agama yang berupaya mencari jalan tengah untuk menyelesaikan problematika kemanusiaan dan alam dengan menjembatani carut marut hubungan sains dan agama yang tampaknya belum berakhir.
