While science deals with external reality and the laws that governs it, literature is more concerned with inner reality and the human condition. Each has its own benefits to humakind and one should not be inherently placed atop the other. However, if there is to be an answer in favour of the sciences, it is true that eventually only science will be able to help us when we encounter problems in nature both trivial, such as curing the common cold, to epic such as escaping the Earth when the sun reaches its red giant stage and scorch everything on the surface of the Earth.

Must the facts about science agree with the Bible?
There is no real requirement for science to agree with the words of the Bible, or even for the Bible to literally agree with modern science. Stephen Jay Gould explained this when he said that the domain or magisterium for science is the empirical realm - what the universe is made from and why it works the way it does. The magisterium of religion includes the ultimate meaning and moral values. These magisteria are nonoverlapping - science does not comment on the ultimate meaning of life, while religion should not comment on the natural world.At times the Bible does disagree with the facts of science, which makes Stephen Jay Goud's recommendation more significant for Christians.

Can science make a value judgment?
Technically, no. Science is all about making and testing hypotheses - that is, testing ideas about the world to see whether or not they are correct factually. If it cannot be measured, science is not the tool you should be using with it. Having said that, when making value judgements it is important to take any relevant pieces of information into account, and, more often than not, this includes scientific insights. For example, to say that smoking is wrong is a value judgement, but we use the evidence science has provided linking smoking with cancer in saying it. To put it another way, science cannot make value judgements any more than a thesaurus can write poetry, but it is helpful in the same way.

Is science a set of rules?
Scientific method uses rules, but is more than just a set of rules. The word Science comes from the Latin and means to know.It is the careful study of a subject, and the formulation of an hypothesis to explain the observations. The explanation should be open to criticism, and the results of any experiment should be repeatable by others. It should be open to an extrapolation of the results, and thus have some predictive value.
What does it mean to make a value statement with regards to a topic in science?

Why should you know about character in literature?
You should learn about literature characters to learn more about real characters. Understanding why people do the things they do is important, and book characters follow the same rules as real people do in that respect, so you can learn more about people by reading about imaginary characters.
