Science and reason are no more of a threat to religion than schools are a threat to ignorance. Build all the schools you want and provide all the education that can be delivered and ignorance will still be plentiful. There are no scientific arguments or reasonings that will defeat religion. The human mind cannot evolve out of this. In fact, as society grows more impersonal and world events become more alarming, religion will only strengthen. As bluesdave noted:
