scientific community differentiated between the qualitative and quantitative aspects of matter when it affirmed that science provides only a partial knowledge of reality. This means that, according to the self-confession of the material sciences itself, qualitative aspects are beyond the scope of the scientific material investigation that focuses only on the quantitative aspects of the matter. In other words, while science investigates quantitative matter, it leaves aside the qualitative search. After that, humanity has come to realize that the qualitative aspect of this question that relates to the search for Reality is essentially unknowable, but its quantitative aspect that relates to the study of material things is largely knowable. At some point, the two sides diverged from each other. The qualitative aspect remained a subject of exploration for certain individuals who continued their search for Reality, while the quantitative aspect attracted an entire community of scientists dedicated to its investigation. This is what we now refer to as science. Subsequently, this observable aspect became further divided into two parts: theoretical science and applied science. These two aspects are distinct from one another yet also intertwined. I have studied and extensively written on this topic, and some of my findings about scientific evidence of religious truths, which, in essence, is religious theology based on scientific evidence, are given in the pages of this book.
