• Scientific advances that took place with the Renaissance and the Enlightenment behind it, has managed to attract a lot of attention. So with this result, modern science is accepted as the most reliable source of the knowledge and is placed on a ground where it can solve any problem. It is also said that science resolve the issue about whether God exists or not. At this stage, with the contribution of ideological approaches and some groundless illogical arguments exhibited in the name of religion, science has now been turned into a sacred institution. Science, which is transformed into a sacred, has become unable to meet another sacred religion on a common ground and a wrong dichotomy has been used. Thereby the advancing science has slowly started to "destroy God". Thise understanding of science became also the biggest support for the atheists. Although this understanding of science, which has turned into a sacred, and has emerged basically against the Christian faith, it has been tried to reflect locally on all beliefs. Whereas, waiting for the science to provide data that “God will be annihilated with the advancement of science” actually it makes it necessary to be unaware of the limits of the science. The discourse that faith will disappear with the advancement of science, it does not seems an acceptable argument in terms of Islam. Because Islam dynamically appeals to the reason and presents nature as evidence of God's existence.
