Adding a noun takes 30 seconds but it comes with a big responsibility. Once you add the noun, you own it on www.oppo-site.com.
You must take on board oppo-inions of others before linking to its opposite. If its opposite hasn't been added yet, you must add (and own) that too.

The Science of Opposites
The science of opposites where we aim to explore the opposite of every noun in the English language.
Nouns don't tend to have opposites - words like knife, pen, house, car and phone are somehow more complete when you find their logical partner.
Register and play your part in solving one of language's great mysteries. If we all do 1 noun each, we'll have this finished in no time.

Do spirituality and science
Do spirituality and science have to be opposed to each other? Unfortunately, just defining either concept seems almost hopeless at times. On the other hand, describing them is much easier, so let's start there.Science isn't system, but an approach to knowledge, a method. Scientists will argue forever about the definition of science, but still agree it is the most useful or productive method of understanding the world. What are its essential characteristics? They are objective observation, the deriving of principles and "laws", and predictions based on these. (When it produces things, it is also technology.)Science can be easily differentiated from religion by the fact that all of the knowledge it produces might be proven wrong. Religious "knowledge" is typically sacred, and untouchable, while scientific knowledge is always being overthrown or refined by further application of science. While faith is the cornerstone of religion, evidence is for science.This explains why "creationist" science is not actually science. A creationist "scientist" will not allow his religiously based beliefs to be challenged by new evidence. He will openly tell you that his "faith" is more important to him than the evidence. He only uses the pretense of science to support his preconceived notions. Many scientists, on the other hand, have overturned even their own theories, because the essence of science is to go where the evidence leads you.
